Harry Potter alum Rupert Grint is set to make his network series regular debut in Super Clyde, a new CBS superhero comedy from Greg Garcia, the creator of My Name is Earl and Raising Hope, THR reports. Grint, who played Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter cinematic franchise, will star in the new series as Clyde, “a meek, unassuming fast-food worker who decides to become a super hero,” according to the outlet.
Super Clyde is described as follows:
“An avid comic book reader considers himself a borderline agoraphobic with mild to severe anxiety issues who wishes he were a super hero himself. When he inherits a $100,000 a month inheritance from his long-dead eccentric Uncle Bill, he decides that the cash will be his secret super power and will use it only for good and reward the good-hearted.”
Super Clyde is one of two pilots the network has ordered from Garcia who is set to write and executive produce as a part of his deal at CBS Television Studios. Mike Fresco (Raising Hope, My Name Is Earl) will helm the pilot.
