In July 2008, it was announced that Grint would star in the drama film "Cherrybomb" with Robert Sheehan and Kimberley Nixon. Grint found shooting this film very different from the "Harry Potter" films since he had to adjust to doing a dozen scenes per day. Grint's character Malachy, a worker at Belfast goes to great lengths to impress his boss's daughter, with whom he is infatuated. This film, like his next project, would involve him playing violent roles. Despite premiering at the 2009 Berlin International Film Festival, the film was initially unable to find a distributor. An online campaign by Grint's fans was credited with helping to secure a deal for distribution in the UK in 2010.
