Rupert Grint and Dan Radcliffe Speak to Sky News About Deathly Hallows

Sky News has published a new article delving into the filming for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. As we're all familiar with at this point, the book has been split into two films, and the cast have been filming them back to back since February!

Rupert admits to Sky that, "it's getting quite confusing...We're kind of mixing them together, and because I've got longer hair in the second part I do lose track."

Meanwhile, Dan Radcliffe also revealed the films will have a very "different feel." He says, "We barely spend any time at Hogwarts. I've been here for eight months and I've not filmed a single scene in the great hall, which is unheard of."

Two Ruperts Talking About The Chess Game

Thank you The Leaky, for the link to this new clip from the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone Ultimate Edition DVD.

I called it Sorcerer's Stone... I never call it Sorcerer's Stone... but it's the US edition, so I panicked...

Anyway, it's just a snip of one of the features... but it's little!Rupert and big!Rupert talking about Ron's big moment on the chess board, and it is the Essence of Ron and I think it deserves its own post.

UPDATE: Even more new media has been released in celebration of Half-Blood Prince's DVD release next month for those of us in the UK and US. Firstly, thanks to SnitchSeeker, we have a new photo of the Potter cast on set from a Belgium newspaper. Click here to see!

eTalk in Canada also ran a short segment last night where they interviewed both Rupert and Dan Radcliffe. You can watch the clip here.

Potter Cast Talk HBP and DH on Set

Thanks to our friends at SnitchSeeker, for footage of Rupert and his co-stars being interviewed on the set of Deathly Hallows by Australian television, for the Half-Blood Prince DVD launch.

And, while I'm here, the latest on the ski jumping question... hold off on the 1988 Winter Olymic research, because we have been in touch with Rupert's 'people', and the latest word is: Have heard from his agent that there is no script approved and no deal in place yet.

Ah, 'yet' is such a small word...

Behind the Scenes on HBP with James Phelps

Phelpsaholics on YouTube have managed to track down the James Phelps BTS clip from the HBP DVD... and you will love it... James didn't just pop in to one of the other departments, he worked as an assistant director... and how much did the rest of the cast take the Mickey?

Rupert Cast in Eddie the Eagle Biopic

In the Diary of the Irish Tribune, we have what looks like a pretty exciting quote from director Declan Lowney...

BAFTA-award-winning Irish director Declan Lowney looks set to hit the big time after securing Harry Potter star Rupert Grint to play the lead role in a $15m comedy biopic about British ski jumper Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards, the unlikely hero of the 1988 Winter Olympics.

Grint, who plays cheeky Ron Weasley in the Potter films, will take on the role of Edwards in the story of the Eagle's disastrous Olympic adventure, in which he came last in both the 70m and 90m ski-jump categories.

"The film is really about triumph over adversity. Every single obstacle was put in this guy's way and yet he still managed to make it to the Winter Olympics," said Wexford-born Lowney.

Originally Steve Coogan was down to play the part but has now been replaced by Grint.

"I met Rupert for the first time last week and the deal is done. He's got to film two new Harry Potter movies back to back before we start shooting with him next year."

So, it looks like we need to keep an eye on Eddie the Eagle, at the imdb. Thank you to SuzeeQ for the initial find.

Torn Between Two Movies - HBP Pictures and DH news

As you know, there are some amazing extras on the Chamber of Secrets Ultimate Collector's Edition, and our order Partners over at The Leaky have been screen capping like mad things.

So, we have pulled together a folder of all the new glimpses of Rupert.

While I'm here, there is a smashing interview with Steffan Rhodri on Wales Online, where he gave more details on how long and when he’ll be filming and how he will mimic Ron Weasley while portraying his part of Reg Cattermole.

“I basically have to be Ron pretending to be Reg,” said the father-of-two.

“It means I have to kind of impersonate Ron which is quite a challenge.”

Steffan and his new co-stars have already met the young actors so that they could watch their mannerisms which they had to adopt for their own roles.

“They would do a scene and then we would do it after them.”
