Tomorrow afternoon you can watch Lee Ingleby, who plays Stan Shunpike in Prisoner Azkaban, in the film Ever After (one of my favorite movies). Lee plays Gustave, the best friend of the main character.  It is on at 1:30 EST on ABC Family, but check your local listings to see what time it is on in your area!

Enjoy!

Michael Berendt has been cast as 18 year old Tom Riddle in Half-Blood Prince; he is also listed as playing an Inferius in the movie. Hero Tiffin plays Tom at 11, and Frank Dillane plays him at 16.

Thanks SS!

Blog Hogwarts has an interview with Dean Mitchell, who is playing a guest at Slughorn’s party in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. And thanks to SnitchSeeker we have a translation!

BlogHogwarts: Had you read any of the Harry Potter books before you obtained the role?
Dean Mitchell: Yes, I am a big fan of the Harry Potter books but when it comes down to books and movies I tend to do it in reverse order to most people. When a film gets released after a book you can often find that the reader of the book is dissapointed with the film. But I find that if I have seen a movie I enjoyed, then I will turn to the book in order to get more out of the story. But as an exception to my own rule I have to say that if anyone is interested in Time Travel, you have to read The Truth Machine by James L Harperin… No movie as yet.
BH: Have you already shot scenes of Half-Blood Prince?
DM: My involvement with Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince was shot in England during the earlier part of this year before I relocated to Los Angeles, California.
BH: How do you feel about being in a Harry Potter film?
DM: I’m extremely grateful to have appeared in a Harry Potter film and to be a small part of the Harry Potter legacy. We have a lot to thank J.K Rowling for and I feel truly blessed, honoured and lucky to have been in some of the best production around today.
BH: Have you met other actors or actresses on Harry Potter set?
DM: Indeed, yes I’ve worked with them on the set and met others outside of the film industry in other locations.

ACED Magazine got an interview with the Harry Potter stars during last month’s Florida Supercon. Natalia Tena, Hugh Mitchell, Devon Murray, and Danielle Tabor were in attendance.

We all had to lean closer as Natalia Tena spent a few seconds whispering in imitation of David Yates, making the others laugh in agreement. “He is awesome. He’s so soft spoken. You don’t even know how he gets stuff done. Most other directors, like in theatre, are like, �€�Lights! What are you doing? Get him to do that!'” yells Natalia, and then bursts into laughter.

Devon adds, “He’s just more laid back than all the other directors. Besides Alfonso Cuaron (Prisoner of Azkaban), he was just real hip. He was like ‘Go on, yeah. Do it. Do it.’ Whereas, Dave… he would ask [everyone] on the set: What is your input, what do you want to happen in the scene? Like, if you would say to him, ‘Well, if I was to do this and he was to do that,’ he’ll film that and then he’ll try it his way. So it’s nice to have your own input into the movie as well.”

Thanks for the tip HarryPottersPage

Thanks to Gretchen and SnitchSeeker we have a nice synopsis of the Flordida Supercon! You can click here or MORE to read the full thing!  There is some strong language, so be aware of that.

In a bout of crazy animated, mile a minute rambling she revealed that there will be no funeral scene in the next movie, at which she then went, “F***! S***! I’m not allowed to tell you that! Oh, f***ing h*ll man. S***.” I’m pretty sure she was seriously a bit upset.
