Harry Potter Trio On Entertainment Weekly Posted by Tina on 12 Jul 2009 | Comments disabled | Submit News Categories: News  , Movie 6 , Dan Radcliffe , Rupert Grint , Emma Watson  You've might have already seen it already in the stores. Or you might just haven't. The trio, Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson, are being premiered on the front cover of Entertainment Weekly and the upcoming film is being mentioned as well. According to EW.com, Emma Watson read all four Twilight books after a friend turned her onto the series last year. "I mean, I wouldn't say I was one of the psycho fans," she says. "Absolute madness, that phenomenon, isn't it?" Our favorite actors don't want to wear their robes no more. "I was like 'Burn it!' Oh my god, to be done with those shoes and that uniform -- that was an exciting day," says Watson. Radcliffe adds, "When you're 18, one of the worst things to be wearing while trying to chat up a girl on the set is a school uniform. You look like a kid! You’re not going to score dressed like that!" It's possible that Emma Watson might to Columbia University, but after the 'Harry Potter' films she's not too sure what she's going to do acting wise."My world is still all about Harry Potter," Watson says. "I really can't see anything beyond it." Yet Daniel is set in his ways. "I have come to the conclusion that I am never happier than when I am on a film set," he says. "This is what I want to be doing. Totally. Absolutely. Unequivocally!" Spolier for 'Deathly Hallows' film, Rupert and Emma's difficult seen was... "I remember being inches away from her lips and thinking, 'Good lord, this is going to be strange,'" says Grint. Adds Watson: "Rupert is like a brother to me, and our relationship couldn't be more platonic. So kissing him –- well, it felt like incest, to be honest. But I think it's going to be very sweet."

It's time for a kiss Posted by AJ on 10 Jul 2009 | Comments disabled | Submit News Categories: News  , Movie 7 Part 1 , Rupert Grint , Emma Watson , Interviews  Emma Watson and Rupert Grint once again take on the role of Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part One, and as everyone knows they share a very special scene during the film. While the rest of this story does reveal information about a certain scene, I do warn those non-book reading fans that it does contain many spoilers pertaining to Ron and Hermione's growing relationship. On the topic of the kiss that she (Emma) and Rupert share, Emma told the New York Daily News, “Rupert and I were quite nervous that it might look ingenuous as we were so desperate to get it over with. Rupert and I felt the pressure of this kiss, there’s so much interest. This is ten years worth of tension and hormones and chemistry and everything one moment. We had to ace it.” Rupert continued, “It’s not something we were really looking forward to. It was quite a strange thing to have to think about doing.” At the end of the conversation, Emma told reporters, “Kissing is awkward, kissing is always awkward.”

New Deathly Hallows Movie Info Posted by Jennifer on 09 Jul 2009 | Comments disabled | Submit News Categories: News  , Movie 7 Part 1 , Movie 7 Part 2 , Rupert Grint , Emma Watson , Interviews  Popular movie news site Coming Soon has published lots of new information about the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows movies after a press conference with the cast and crew. David Yates (director) revealed that so far, they have shot about 85% of part 1 and 10% of part 2. He said, "The first movie is a road movie basically, and it's quite intense and very raw and we're way away from Hogwarts, and it's a bit like three refugees being pursued across the landscape by these terrible Death Eaters. We're really enjoying it actually. It feels very different. What's hard about coming back to 'Half-Blood Prince' is we finished it about a year ago or less. It's weird coming back. The first one is very verité and documentary and edgy and on the road, and the second part is a big opera basically, a great big epic with huge battles and very oddly moving, because it concludes the whole saga really. So they're two very different films." David Heyman (producer) still refuses to say where the films will be split: "In terms of where we're breaking it, we'd like to hold that back for a bit and actually we made a decision right now but because we're shooting both films as one in a way, we're shooting them together, we'll see what happens ultimately. The film is written in a very specific way and I'm sure that'll be where we end up but I don't want to say now and all of a sudden go 'Hm….'" Emma Watson had good news for us Potter fans: "It's not very often that in the middle of the filmmaking process, you stop yourself and go 'This is going to be awesome' and I've done that on a number of occasions," Emma Watson confirmed. "We've just done this amazing scene in the forest where we're getting chased by the Snatchers, and I've never done anything like it, nothing even close. I've never really done any serious stunts or any real action, and it's so exciting and just really dynamic. Because all of us are now finished with school and we're all just totally focused on this finale. It's out of Hogwarts, it's just about the three of us. It's going to be… well, I hope it's going to be brilliant and it feels totally different. I feel like I'm on a different film. The other films have this structure: You know, we come into the Great Hall and there's the opening talk and that's just gone, it's gone." She and Rupert Grint also mentioned the Ron-Hermione kiss scene. "It was not something we were really looking forward to. It was quite a strenuous day to have to go in and think about doing, but I think it was alright in the end," said Rupert. Emma added, "David doesn't really let us watch playback but he let us watch playback under the circumstance because I think Rupert and I were quite nervous that it might look ingenuous, as we were so desperate to get it over with. I think Rupert and I felt the pressure of this kiss, and (for) the fans, this is like ten years worth of tension, hormones and chemistry and everything in one moment and we had to ace it, so it was like 'Oh God' but hopefully we did it."

Can't Wait for HBP? Camp out for two weeks. Posted by Jennifer on 09 Jul 2009 | Comments disabled | Submit News Categories: News  , Movie 6 , Accio-Potter  The Colorado Springs Gazette reports that some fans, eager to watch Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (five days to go, by the way), have been camped outside their local theater for two weeks. Apparently, this particular theater has developed summer-blockbuster-campouts into something of a tradition - "most of the hardcore campers are in league with the theater, a hang-loose group of teens who are there to have a good time, play Mortal Kombat all night, and drum up interest in the next blockbuster." One camper said that he saw the shantytown growing and decided that "drastic action must be taken." We at Accio-Potter salute these very intense fans.
