Ciaran Hinds has done another new interview where he talks about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows with Collider.com. He talks about Potter at the beginning of the interview and then another film after that.
In yet another interview, this time with Rotten Tomatoes, Helena Bonham Carter spoke about Bellatrix Lestrange and what happens to her at the end of Deathly Hallows. Spoilers abond!
“I’m mostly in [Deathly Hallows: Part 2],” she told RT. “But it was fun. I died on my last day, which was really weird — to actually be [killed] on my last day. Molly Weasley – Julie Walters – kills me.”
And it’ll be quite the moment, she explained. “I do get a good death scene,” she told us. “It was really exhausting. As usual! [I’m] duelling, with a wand, on a table. I fell right off. I was clever enough to say, ‘If you’re going to ask me to duel, backwards, can we put a stuntman at the end?’ They said, ‘Ah, you won’t need one.’ And what did I do? Walked straight off. You’d think with 70 people looking at you, one of them would go, ‘Er, could you stop?!’ No! They loved it. I nearly killed myself — on the day that I died.”
For Bonham-Carter, bringing Bellatrix to an end was an emotional experience given her investment in the creation of the character as she appears in the films. “Bellatrix wasn’t on the page,” she explained. “I did think, What can I do to make this interesting? She was just written as tall and gaunt, but I knew there was something I got attracted to — playing arrested development. You know, children. Bellatrix is another child — stuck and totally anarchic.”
A group of Potter stars attended the Shockwaves NME Awards 2010 at Brixton Academy that were held tonight! So far we know that Bonnie Wright, Jamie Campbell Bower, Tom Felton and Rupert Grint were in attendance! Follow the links below to see photos of the stars! (will be updated as more are added)
Helena also spoke to MTV about Deathly Hallows and you can watch the video below.
“I do have lines in this one, which is good,” laughed the veteran actress, who has become a standout as evil Bellatrix Lestrange in the films. “I only finished it a couple of months ago.
“I get to torture Hermione,” Carter said when asked about her favorite scene, which revolves around an incantation that Bellatrix drops on Emma Watson’s character just for fun.
The best bit about being Bellatrix in this one is also because I got to pretend to be Hermione,” she added of a pivotal scene that has the evil witch’s identity being assumed by Harry’s friend in order to gain access to Gringotts Wizarding Bank, which holds Hufflepuff’s cup — and a part of Voldemort’s soul. “Because Hermione takes polyjuice potion and gets to look like Bellatrix.”
“Rather than put Emma Watson in a helluva load of make-up they just said, ‘Now you go act like Hermione,’ ” Bonham Carter said of their decision. “That was fun, because I always wanted to be Hermione.
“It was great fun,” she said of the scene. “[I was] looking at Dan [Radcliffe] and Rupert [Grint] and they were treating me as if I was 17.”
