Rupert Grint did not want to kiss Emma Watson in ‘Harry Potter’

Millions of men around the world would kill for a chance to lock lips with Hermione Granger — too bad Ron Weasley wasn’t one of them.

Rupert Grint, the now 27-year-old actor who portrayed the red headed wizard in the “Harry Potter” films, claims his famous kissing scene with Emma Watson was awkward, to say the least.

“I never look back at that scene,” Grint told People on Friday at Universal Orlando’s Celebration of Harry Potter event. “I’ve known Emma since she was literally 9 years old and we had this very brother-sister relationship. And it just felt very surreal. I have a memory of her face getting closer and closer. Like, ‘Oh my God.’ I can’t really remember anything apart from that.”

And the duo didn’t bother to practice the highly-anticipated moment.

“One take was enough. It was such a huge moment and there was so much expectation. Quite a lot of pressure actually.”

Watson has spoken out about locking lips with her co-stars in the past.“Rupert was the weirdest. Dan wasn’t so bad,” she told OK! Magazine. “I just had to remind myself, ‘I am an actress. I am Hermione. This is a role.’ But it was really hard. We just have so much history together. They are like my brothers.”

She added: “Dan and I could sort of have a laugh about it. Whereas Rupert’s a bit more quiet so I didn’t really know what he was thinking which made me a bit more nervous.”

Grint was at the three-day Wizarding World of Harry Potter event with former co-stars Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom), Katie Leung (Cho Chang), Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley) and Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood).

His latest film, “Moonwalkers,” was released earlier this month.
