A very rough video of Stephen Fry introducing the Outstanding Contribution to Cinema award to the Harry Potter series has appeared online via YouTube. J.K. Rowling, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, David Heyman, David Barron, Mike Newell, David Yates, and Alfonso Cuaron went on stage to accept the award. Hopefully a better quality version will be released, if so I will update this post.
As many of you know, the BAFTA Awards were held today and the Harry Potter series received the award for Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema, it was presented by Stephen Fry and there was a montage accompanying them accepting the award. Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, JK Rowling, David Yates, David Heyman, Helena Bonham Carter, Bonnie Wright, Jamie Campbell Bower, Miranda Richardson and director Mike Newell were at the awards ceremony. Hopefully there will be a video of the cast and crew accepting the award online soon. Emma Watson also presented the Rising Star Award. A lot of videos are beginning to appear online so here is the first roundup. You can also watch a video of Rupert here that has embedding disabled.

Coming Soon is reporting that Emma Watson will be starring in The Perks Of Being A Wallflower with Logan Lerman.
The project is being produced by Lianne Halfon and Russell Smith via their Mr. Mudd productions banner. Mr. Mudd’s John Malkovich will executive produce. Production of the film is slated to commence this summer.
Erik Feig, Summit’s President of Production, stated, “Every so often you read a book that reminds you what life was really like at a particular age in all its wonderful and terrible details or if you’re lucky enough to read it at the right time in your life, it can change the course you’re on and make you think things are actually going to be ok. ‘The Perks of Being a Wallflower’ is that book and we are thrilled for the opportunity to turn it into that kind of movie as well. We know we are off to the right start with Stephen directing, with Emma and Logan starring, and with our talented producer team.”
According to one of Forbe’s latest lists, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint are the highest grossing on screen couple! Also on the list are Viggo Mortensen and Liv Tyler (Lord of the Rings), Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley (Pirates of the Caribbean) and more!
We all knew it was coming to this. After watching them grow from 10-year-old tykes to brave teens, romance has finally, truly bloomed in the Harry Potter movies. No Hermione and Ron haven’t kissed yet, but Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows made it clear that the pair has deep feelings for each other and a kiss can’t be far behind.Which is why Rupert Grint and Emma Watson top our list of Hollywood’s Top Grossing On-Screen Couples. The Harry Potter movies, in which the pair star as Ron and Hermione, have earned a whopping $6.3 billion so far. And with a final film slated for next summer (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2) the franchise is on track to top $7 billion.
A second newsletter has been sent out with more details on Emma Watson’s collection for Alberta Ferretti. The first was sent out back in , and can be seen here. This new one says:
Emma meets Alberta
The sense of a caress:
Collection is touched by the lightness of lace.
The sense in five fingertips:
Five senses. Five emotions. Five inspirations. Five images. Five pieces.
One collection.
The sense of our love:
We love Nature. What we do for nature is Nature.
