In the books
This is how J.K. Rowling describes Ron Weasley in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone:
“He was tall, thin and gangling, with freckles, big hands and feet and a long nose.”— PS, ch. 6
In the series
Alastair Stout plays Ron Weasley in HBO’s series. Differences from the books so far:
Books: after chapter one, the story only shows what Harry sees, so Ron is never seen at home. Series: there is a scene of Ron receiving his Hogwarts letter at the Burrow.
In interviews
Alastair Stout told Scholastic News that he wants to bring Ron to life in his own way, and that his most memorable moment of filming was being flung backward from a chessboard. Read the interview.
