Having starred in one of the best-known film franchises of all time, Rupert Grint probably gets approached quite a bit.

The problem? Apparently only 50% of those people actually know who he is. The other half think he's Ed Sheeran.

During an appearance on The Late Late Show, Grint spoke about the fans -- including some famous ones -- who've confused him with the singer.

He's not alone, at least. At the end of the clip, Sir Patrick Stewarts chips in to say people are forever confusing him with Sir Ben Kingsley.
