Today, July 31st, is a big day for those of us in the Potter world! We get to celebrate the birthdays of two amazing people. JK Rowling, and her wonderful creation, Harry Potter! I know I would be a totally different person if it was not for Harry Potter, so I thank JK Rowling for helping me find my true passion in life (graphic and web design).
JK Rowling is celebrating her 45th birthday today and Harry celebrates his 30th.
One Night Only have released a new behind-the-scenes look at the making of their music video for “Say You Don’t Want It” that featured Emma Watson. In the video Emma and George Craig explained the theme of the story, which was based off of Lady and the Tramp.
In a new interview with the LA Times, Daniel Radcliffe discusses his role in the upcoming film The Woman in Black. Some segments of the interview may be read below.
“Working is how I will best get through a very weird time,” Radcliffe said. “I know it’s the most constructive thing I can do because otherwise I’d be moping around and being a bit like, ‘Oh, I miss everyone … ’ So I’m quite pleased to go on to the next thing and the next challenge.”
“When I met first met James Watkins, our director, he told me about a quote of Stanley Kubrick’s, which was that all films about the afterlife or ghosts are innately consoling,” Radcliffe said. “I think there’s something about that that is very true to our story. While it is a horror story and it is very frightening, it’s also about loss and grief. I read it on a plane, and I don’t know what the people around me must have thought. I kept jumping and gasping…”
Radcliffe, who begins shooting the film this fall, will be on screen in almost every scene of the film, and it will be the first true test of his ability to carry a movie in which he doesn’t wave a wand. “People really have only ever seen my face with glasses on it … that’s going to change in this movie,” said Radcliffe, who’s also attached to a new version of “All Quiet on the Western Front” as well as “The Journey Is the Destination,” the story of slain photojournalist Dan Eldon.
Radcliffe says his preparations for “The Woman in Black” have helped him avoid the full emotional impact of leaving his decade-long role and costars Emma Watson and Rupert Grint. Harry Potter Sorcerors stone “We, all three of us — me, Rupert and Emma — we just wept,” Radcliffe said of June 12, the final day on the set of the last “Potter” film.
