[TV Watch] A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song Airing in January
Posted by Megs

As we posted many months ago, Freddie Stroma (Cormac McLaggen) starred in the direct to DVD movie,  A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song. The film was released back in September and it will be making its television debut on January 22nd on ABC Family.  For those of you that need a refresher here is the film’s description:

Cyrano De Bergerac meets Cinderella. Over-worked, harried and terrified of being put back in foster care, 17 year old Katie (Lucy Hale) does her stepmother and step-siblings’ bidding without complaining. Vocally gifted, Katie feels particularly upset when forced to lay down singing tracks so that her untalented stepsister, Bev Van Ravensway, can hopefully win a recording contract from Massive Records – who’s company President, Harvey Morgan, is scouting for new spectacular talent at a talent showcase for the Performing Arts Department at a prestigious private school.

A clip of Freddie singing may be watched below:

Freddie Stroma Talks Potter, A Cinderella Story
Posted by Megs

Freddie Stroma (Cormac McLaggen) recently spoke to CelebBuzz about the end of the Potter series as well as his upcoming film A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song [more info on that film may be read in this post].

Walk us through your last day of shooting for Harry Potter. Mine wasn’t too bad. I think for those guys–Dan, Emma, and Rupert–they started when they were nine or ten so it had formed their entire life. I wasn’t there when they had their final wrap day so I didn’t get to see that—probably for the best though because I’d be very emotional! It was okay but it was sad. I’ve spent definitely a long time with that lot and they’re such beautiful people.

Not a lot of people know this but you actually hold a degree in neuroscience. I managed to get an agent just as I was starting university so I was juggling doing neuroscience and running off and filming. Personally, it’s the best degree to study because the human brain is just fascinating.

You’re currently in A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song. Tell us a little bit about the project and what drew you to it. It’s modern telling of Cinderella. I guess it’s a comedy, which is definitely something that draws me to a project. Also, I was able to sing in it as well which was kind of fun. It was my first time going into the studio, recording a song, and having my own song—which is very cool.

Thanks Harry Potters Page

The WB Official Youtube has been updated with a clip from their upcoming film, A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song, which is a direct to TV/DVD film that will be released on September 6th. The film stars Freddie Stroma as Luke, also known as Prince Charming. The film will also air on ABC Family, but the premiere date is still unknown. I assume it will air before the DVD is released. You can pre-order the film by heading to Barnes and Noble.

Today we have the first part of what will be 2 different press conferences that were held on Monday April 4th at Harry Potter: The Exhibition in New York City. This first press conference was with normal media outlets, which you will hear in this post. The other press conference was with fan sites, Magical-Menagerie was in attendance, and hopefully WB will be sending over that audio soon. Sadly photography was not allowed at this event, so you can only listen.

In the first clip you will hear David Thewlis, Natalia Tena, Evanna Lynch, Warwick Davis, Freddie Stroma, Robbie Coltrane, Helen McCrory and David Barron. The second includes Clemence Poesy, Dohmnall Gleeson, James Phelps, Oliver Phelps, Bonnie Wright, Mark Williams, Michael Gambon and David Heyman.

Thank you to WB (and WCG) for sending over the audio! Also, thanks to SnitchSeeker for uploading the audio so I wouldn’t have to 😉
