Ed Sheeran enlists Rupert Grint and Nathalie Emmanuel for new single "A Little More"

Ed Sheeran has released his latest single, "A Little More," accompanied by a brilliantly comedic official video starring actors Rupert Grint and Nathalie Emmanuel. The release follows a week of social media intrigue, with fans piecing together clues after Grint appeared to take over Sheeran's social media accounts.



The track itself is a witty and sharp piece of blues-infused pop, delivering a message of self-preservation and moral courage. Sheeran co-wrote the song with a team of top collaborators, including DAVE, Blake Slatkin, Cirkut, and longtime creative partner Johnny McDaid. The production is a joint effort between Slatkin and Cirkut.

Directed by Emil Nava, the official video marks a highly-anticipated reunion for Sheeran and Grint, who last worked together on the 2011 video for "Lego House." The new visual picks up right where the previous one left off, following Grint's character as he is released from prison and attempts to live a normal life. However, his efforts are comically thwarted at every turn by the constant, unnerving appearance of Ed Sheeran.

The story builds to a climax at a traditional wedding, where Grint's character, standing at the altar with his bride (played by Nathalie Emmanuel), is shocked to find a sea of wedding guests all appearing as Sheeran. The final twist is revealed when he lifts his bride's veil, creating a memorable and hilarious conclusion.

"A Little More" is the latest track from Sheeran's upcoming album, Play, which is set to be released on September 12. The album follows his recent collaboration with Arijit Singh on the cross-cultural single "Sapphire," which earned four MTV Video Music Awards nominations.
