Would you like some variety in the “Golden Trio’s” aresnal of new projects? Of course you would. With The Woman in Black starring Daniel Radcliffe opening last night, we should focus for a minute on Rupert Grint’s latest project Into the White. Here is a great clip via hypable.com and Snitch Seeker where we see Rupert’s character Gunner Robert Smith skiing.

The summary from IMDb, Internet Movie Database, says:

English and German pilots shoot each other down, and later find themselves at the same cabin. In order to survive the tough winter in the Norwegian wilderness they have to stand together. It is the start of a long and unlikely friendship.

The clip looks to be one of the milder moments of the film, but I definitely want to see what happens at the end of the clip! Stay tuned for more info about Into the White, which makes its way to theaters on March 9.
