Ed Sheeran releases new single and music video starring Rupert Grint

Fresh from his appearance at Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann, Ed Sheeran has released his new single 'A Little More' along with a music video starring Rupert Grint.

The track comes out ahead of his upcoming album Play, set to release September 12.

The song uses humorous lyrics and a blues style to discuss topics of "self-preservation and mortal courage," according to a statement.

Grint previously featured in Sheeran's 'Lego House' music video in 2011, playing the character of an obsessive Sheeran fan.

After numerous posts featuring Grint on Sheeran's social media accounts sparked speculation from fans, the actor returns to his 2011 role.

The 'A Little More' music video picks up where 'Lego House' left off. It follows Grint as he tries to return to normalcy after being released from prison. To his dismay, however, he keeps seeing Sheeran at every corner.

Earlier this week Sheeran performed at Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann in Wexford. He played an arrangement of hit songs, including Nancy Mulligan, which he wrote about his late Wexford-born grandmother, Anne Mary Sheeran.
