A RON Weasley lookalike fears his days as a double for the Harry Potter wizard are numbered.
Dad-of-two Lewis Parker, who is about to turn 34, is considering hanging up his wand after 15 years.
He said: “I may be starting to get too old to be Ron.
“I can’t pretend to be a 14-year-old forever.
“Don’t get me wrong, I want to keep the magic alive for as long as possible.”
His parents first noticed the resemblance when they took him to see 2001’s Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.
He then got called “Ron” on nights out so decided to join a lookalike agency.
Lewis, who was bullied when he was young for being ginger, was hired for birthday parties, corporate events, business openings and meet-and-greets.
He also appeared on Channel 4 show Lookalikes — and now hopes to cash in on his maturer looks as a double for actor Rupert Grint, who played Ron.
He said: “I now see myself as an adult Ron Weasley.
“If Rupert has a big role in something else, I can always portray that character as well.
“I would love to be a stand-in or body double.”
Lewis, who is also a stonemason in Spalding, Lincs, went on: “It has been a very steady part-time job of mine.
“I have been to amazing places and met celebrities along the way.”
He has never met or heard from Rupert himself, but said: “I’d love to.
“I’ve made a TikTok video with Ed Sheeran lookalike Ty Jones to campaign to get all four of us together as we think this would break the internet.”
He still gets abuse about his hair but he said: “It’s nothing I haven’t heard before.
“It can hurt but haters won’t discourage me.”
