The LA Times has yet another interview, this time with Costume Designer Jany Temime where she talks about Slughorn’s costumes. There is also a new photo of Slughorn, see it HERE!
At the same time, Temime said she had to work closely with David Yates to achieve the right balance for the character. “Slughorn has to have power, but at the same time he has to be funny. He has to be overdone, but also be someone you’d respect. It was difficult getting there,” she said.
The solution? “Lots of three-piece suits, classic English tailoring — but always with a twist. Like fabric that’s a little bit louder, a print that stands out a bit too much. Just little flourishes that show he enjoys the finer things in life.”

Well, yeah, this Slytherin scion has done everything in his power to put the whammy on Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) and his mini-Scooby crew since page 1. Plus, he’s blond…and, in movies, blond kids are almost always bad news.

Daniel Radcliffe was interviewed recently and he talks about a myriad of different things relating to the Potter movies.
At this point in the saga how do you feel with the rest the cast? Are they still professionals first, or rather is a kind of family?
When you live together more than seven years with them they become a part of you. Professionally, you can refresh each time.
Wouldn’t it bother you when all the Harry Potter movies are finished that you cannot be removed of the character?
I don’t believe it. I am playing other roles that I have been offered and I am anxious to carry out, reading scripts. Until they no longer see me as Harry Potter.
Will you not miss being Harry Potter?
I will be a little sad. Not just being Harry Potter, but to all the ones that participated in the movie.
