NYLON has posted a new interview with actress Bonnie Wright where she talks about Harry Potter, and more specifically Part 2 of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows! She also discusses Daniel Radcliffe, her parent’s jewelry store (Wright and Teague), fashion and more. Some snippets may be read below:
Did you and the rest of the cast get the books before everyone else? Unfortunately not! Actually, the most grating thing I’ve ever seen in a movie is in The Devil Wears Prada, when those two little kids get the Harry Potter books ahead of time. I was like, “Are you kidding? That would never, ever, ever happen!” [JK Rowling] is so guarded, and she always wants everything to be released at the exact same time. Even the international translators would only get the books when they were already on sale, so nothing leaked out. Everybody – I mean everybody, Dan, Emma, everyone – had to wait just like you.
When you got the books, would you skip ahead to try and find the Ginny Weasley scenes? I remember doing that sometimes, but then it would kind of ruin the story, so I ended up just reading as I’d read any book normally. But I remember, you know, so many people would call me or text me the day the books came out. They’d go, “Oh my god, Bonnie, have you read page two-hundred-and-whatever?” And I’m like, “No! Stop! Don’t tell me anything!” That was torture!
But I can’t wait for the part in the last film where your mother yells at Bellatrix, “Get away from my daughter, you bitch!” Oh that whole scene is going to be sogood. In fact, what’s so great about the last film is that all the good guys bring up their game. They’re like, “Actually, we’ll really fight now; we’re not afraid to cause damage.” It’s so much fun, and the best part is, we get to destroy Hogwarts!
Cue the crying children. I guess people could think that’s sad, but for a lot of us, it was strangely cathartic. Like, “This has been amazing, now let’s blow it up.” It’s kind of like when you build a sand castle and you break it down.
