We’ve got some awesome interviews for you today, so get ready for a bit of fun. First up, Tom Felton ‘hosted’ a series of random interviews with the Harry Potter cast, which will be featured as bonuses on the ‘Half-Blood Prince’ DVD. The questions are ingenious and catchy, you’ll surely have fun listening to the answers. Watch the whole interview (entitled ‘What’s on your mind?’) in two parts below:
HBP related as well, another new promotional video, The Pitfalls of Teenage Love, has just been released. The footage focuses on the characters’ romance during the 6th year at Hogwards, it includes behind-the-scenes sequences and, of course, cast interviews. Click below:
Furthermore, fresh new interviews with the cast members kept popping out this week. In some of them, the actors discuss the trio, respectively Emma. David Bradley (Filch) describes the trio as down-to-earth and hard-working.
David Bradley: “You wouldn’t even know that they had made the money they have. Their parents and the people looking after them keep them grounded. They don’t disappear off to their trailers in between bits, they hang around and chat like the rest of us. Those kids work really hard. I really admire them.”
Bonnie Wright highlights her and Emma’s common love: fashion.
Bonnie Wright: “We talk all the time, Emma’s studying at Brown at the moment and is really enjoying it but when you spend so much time with people, like we do on Harry Potter, it’s hard not to stay in contact.
‘We chat about clothes and if we’re going on the red carpet we definitely talk about what we are going to wear’, she said.
Meanwhile, David Heyman (the producer of the first two Harry Potter films, ‘Philosopher’s Stone’ and ‘Chamber of Secrets’) goes back in time and talks about his experience working with the trio.
David Heyman: “Having seen Dan’s screen test, I don’t think Chris Columbus could have found a better Harry. I am also delighted to see that we’re going to have a screen Ron and Hermione who can bicker as if they’d been doing it all their lives. Chris’s choice of three wonderful British actors for the leading roles shows how well he understands the spirit of these books. I wish Dan, Emma, and Rupert the very best of luck, and hope they have as much fun acting the first year at Hogwarts as I had writing it.”
Movie director Chris Columbus has also went through his memories and gladly remembered the young Daniel, Rupert and Emma. Scroll down for a quick snippet of the interview:
Chris Columbus: “My biggest pride is seeing the pictures now, and watching the three of them from a distance, and seeing them do an entire scene in one shot,” said the director of the first two “Harry Potter” films, which were released in 2001 and 2002. “Seriously, I know that sounds funny, but in the old days — and, you know, the old days meaning eight years ago — and in that first picture in particular, it’s filled with cuts because they couldn’t really get beyond the first line without either looking into the camera, laughing or looking at the lights.”
