British actor RAY WINSTONE has teamed up with the family of murdered HARRY POTTER star ROBERT KNOX to help fight knife crime.
Knox, 19, was stabbed to death in Kent, England last year (08), and Winstone, who worked with the teen on 2004 movie King Arthur, was deeply affected by the tragedy.
He has now offered to help Knox’s father Colin make a short film to urge youngsters to stay away from deadly weapons.
Colin Knox admits he is delighted the star agreed to back the campaign. He says, “I literally punched the air when Ray agreed to star in the film. People will listen to him and that is exactly what we want.”
