There is a great new interview online with Matthew Lewis where he talks about Deathly Hallows!
Q: Some fans also have a crush on Neville and on you. Did you ever expect that?
A: Definitely not for myself, but I wouldn’t begrudge it. (Laughs.) It’s cool for a 20-year-old guy to have that. When I got into “Harry Potter” that was never really the aim.
Q: What can we expect from Neville in the next film (“Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, Part One,” to be released in 2010)?
A: I got the final script a few weeks ago. Neville has got a lot of stuff to do. The three main students (Harry, and friends Ron Weasley and Hermoine Grainger) have been away from Hogwarts, but Neville stays and takes charge of Dumbledore’s Army (which leads the charge against Voldemort and his forces.) He is leading an underground resistance. He gets beaten and is a bit bloodied.
Q: Are you satisfied with the role he will play?
A: I think the fans are going to love it. Neville really comes through. He’s got this older demeanor. Nothing scares him anymore.
Thanks Lewis Lovers!
