Harry Latino recently did an interview with Matthew Lewis who plays Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter films.

Q: When you speak with J. K. Rowling do you ask her about Neville Longbottom?

ML: When I met her I asked her if I was doing it right. That’s the one thing I wanted to know, if I was doing it like she wanted me to. I mean, pleasing the family is very important and she’s… it’s hers; you know… it’s all in her mind and she’s the one that you want to really make it right for. She said she was happy with what I was doing and wanted me to continue with it. That was the best compliment I’ve ever heard, her saying that I was doing it right. That was great. I don’t know, maybe she just talks about Harry Potter all the time so when I talked to her we only spoke about Neville for a brief few seconds and then we started talking about films. I had some posters in my room like Pulling dynamite and Kill Bill and so we started talking about them. I know it was her way for talking to me but at the same time getting away from Harry Potter.

Thanks Leaky!

Two more interviews are now online!  Katie Leung (Cho), Matt Lewis (Neville), Bonnie Wright (Ginny) and Evanna Lynch (Luna) all discuss their characters and the films.

First Interview

Katie:
Did they make a big thing of it[the kiss] on the set?
Yes. They were reminding me about it every five minutes, which didn’t help at all because I was nervous. But when the time actually came it wasn’t so bad. It took about 20 takes to get it right. But that’s pretty standard for any scene. Though it is a bit odd when you’re trying to concentrate on kissing and there’s a cameraman moving around you.

Evanna:
I think I am like Luna, but not as much as everyone thinks I am. She’s not as determined as I am. She wouldn’t have chased the part in the film the way I did. But we both believe in things that don’t have to have facts to back them up.

Second Interview

Bonnie:
It’s been more fun doing this film as Ginny’s character’s developed. The six of us go through to the Ministry of Magic and it was really interesting to be a part of. Ginny’s a bit more confident – I have definitely enjoyed that.

Q: Do you think Neville’s going to die?
A: A lot of people have come up to me and said, you’re going to die mate’. Cheers! But I like to think he’ll be there fighting to the end. If he does die, I’d like it to be really heroic, saving someone else’s life.
