Cinema Today is reporting that Rupert Grint and Bonnie Wright will be visiting Japan on November 17 to promote Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1. Rupert has been confirmed as attending, Evanna Lynch may be attending, and Bonnie will be going but not staying for any further events (thanks to SS for this bit of information and the translation below).
In regards to Japan, Rupert says, “I love Japan, the last time I went was after the third movie, but I really became fascinated by the country. It was very different from any other country and the fans were very, very enthusiastic (laughs),” he explains as being his impression of Japan. Also, “Last time [I was in Japan], the trip was very short, so this time I would like to be able to stay a little longer,” he says as he looks forward to coming to Japan. Finally, he sends a message to the fans, “Deathly Hallows is a brand new adventure like nothing you have seen in the other Harry Potter films. I hope you are all looking forward to it!”
Reps for Rupert’s new film Wild Target have emailed this exclusive clip from Wild Target, which will have a limited release in the United States starting October 29th. Watch the video below (rather than upload my own version and clutter YouTube I’ve just used Rupert-Grint.us‘ video).
Emma Watson has been featured in an issue of Mexican Seventeen magazine (Thanks to the girls on the Vogue&Chic Forums!!). If anyone can translate, please feel free to send it over! She has also been found on the cover of Teenage magazine (thanks SS!). View the Teenage scan here in the gallery and Emma in Seventeen below.
Finally, Rupert has been featured in Bravo magazine, read a full translation here and a few snippets below. You may view the scans here and here in the gallery!
Will Hogwarts be destroyed in a fight?
Rupert: Not only the school, a large part of the set was a field of debris (smiles).
Gross! Is it true, that the shooting took longer as planned because of you?
Rupert: Uh, yes! I had to laugh out often and couldn’t get over it fast. That’s why there were so many interruptions.
And you couldn’t do anything against the laughing attacks?
Rupert: The crew tried. Whenever I started to laugh, I got a yellow card and had to pay two Euros, and when I got a red one, five. In the end 230 Euro accumulated, and spent on a good cause.
The shooting is finally over. Do you miss Harry Potter already?
Rupert: Totally! It’s the end of an era. I miss also my dressing room. There was yable tennis and a pool table… So cool!
Don’t you miss your colleagues?
Rupert: Sure I do! Harry Potter was ten years of my life, but we all will keep in contact. I often meet the Phelps twins, who played my brothers Fred and George in the movies to play golf.
And what should your dream girl be like?
Rupert: I don’t care about looks. I like girls who are alert and a little crazy. Just the way I am.
SnitchSeeker (via Anais and HallowedGround) now has translations from the Premiere magazine feature on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The translation includes interviews with with Bonnie Wright, Evanna Lynch, Tom Felton, Bill Nighy (Scrimgeour) and Rade Serbedzija (Gregorovitch). Read the full translations here!
P: Everybody knows that the Harry Potter clan suffers great loss in this epilogue. What’s it like to witness the deaths of characters that you’ve known for 10 years?
B.W.: One thing is certain: the atmosphere would change dramatically once we started talking about the death scenes. There was a really strong emotional tension, but opposite the characters, we didn’t have time to feel sorry for our friends. We filmed this scenes just as J.K. Rowling described them: in the frenzy of the action.
P: After ten years of Harry Potter, say goodbye to the saga must have been especially heartbreaking.
TF: When we went back to the last festival at Leavensden after the end of filming, the emotion was at its height. It was the last time the full team was assembled in the Great Hall. We suddenly seemed very empty…a funny feeling.
P: You may find yourself in a few years wandering in the Harry Potter theme park that just opened in Florida.
TF: (Laughs) That’s exactly what I said! If I get too depressed, I will go live over there.
Premiere: How did you get to Harry Potter 7 ?
Rade Serbedzija: It’s a funny story…I was in LA, packing my bags to go back to England, when my oldest daughter – she was 16 at the time- asked me where I was going. I tell her that I’m going to London to meet up with the director of Harry Potter.
And then, she just freaks out: “You’re gonna be in Harry Potter? Dad, if you ever get the job, you don’t know how much I’ll respect you! “I playes alongside Stanley Kubrick, but I had to be on Harry Potter for my daughter to be proud of me. I’m playing Gregorovitch, a guy that makes miraculous sticks…
P: Instead of evolving as the other characters do, Luna stays true to herself…
E.L.: I auditioned for this character because I wanted to be Luna and no one else: I feel really close to this character because she doesn’t judge anyone. Underneath her loony and detached looks, Luna has had really hard times too. She’s the one who relates and puts an impartial view on the situation, things that I’m capable of doing myself. It’s thanks to her crazy looks that I managed to really be in her skin. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to keep any accessory. Impossible to steal a sock without getting a freaked out call from a costume designer…
P: How did you play Rufus Scrimgeour?
B.N.: Like an old soldier, a man of action turned politician. He had lived a life of war and fights that tired him and I wanted to give him a sweeter edge… You also had to be a little enigmatic. The readers of the sage know the character and its destiny, but I didn’t want to play him starting from the end… I kept a part in the shadows …so as not to make him a hero from the beginning.
Premiere: What captivates you the most in this last movie?
RG: The decision to make two films. The first part looks like a road movie – which we also filmed in large part outside, which was very exciting. In the second we sat down in the destruction of Hogwarts, with intense battle scenes but were very fun to run.
