Tom Felton, Bonnie Wright, and James and Oliver Phelps spoke to Allocine last week in France about Half-Blood Prince, Deathly Hallows and more! View it below thanks to Anna at So-Bonnie!
Devon Murray (Seamus Finnegan) is reportedly set to attend two early charity screenings of Half-Blood Prince in Colorado, US. The screenings will be hosted by There With Care, and will take place in Boulder on July 10th and Denver on July 12th. There is also a report that Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) and Jamie Waylett (Vincent Crabbe) have recorded a special message that will be shown before the movie.

For those of us in the US and UK (and a few other countries) we have only ONE MONTH left until Half-Blood Prince comes out in theaters! We have waited such a long time for this and it is almost here! WOOHOO
Melissa of TLC has posted another segment from her interview with JK Rowling for her book Harry A History.
JKR: “Have they got it from my hard drive?” I’m so ignorant about PC’s – I would think, “Can they? Can they crawl through the wires and get it? Physically? In little balaclavas?”
Every time my computer did anything that computers do, freeze or something, it would always cross my mind and I’d think, ‘what have I let happen?’
At the very final stages of seven, I did take everything off my PC completely and it was just on the laptop, and I even resented having to think like that, but this was the last book, and I so wanted people to get it in paper form to read, and not from a scam or a spoiler. So i did get a little bit more security conscious right at the end.
MA: So it was never connected to the internet?
JKR: Yeah. Actually, no, that’s not true. I did connect it to the Internet – what am I saying? [laughs] I did. But I did treat it all with a little bit more reverence. But actually, yes, I did connect it to the Internet so what’s the difference? Oops. It’s so nice to be able to say these things now.
MA: It must be a relief…
“Yeah, it’s so liberating. I wouldn’t ever willingly go back to that. Definitely people would find that hard to believe. ‘Come on. Look at the money you’ve made.’ You know what? I wouldn’t ever want to live with that kind of stress again. I miss writing Harry so much, but still, to an extent, what makes me resistant to the idea of a book eight or a novel eight, is the knowledge of stepping back into that hothouse.
“People will be vomiting to hear me say this because I know how lucky I was to be published, and I know how lucky I am to have had the success, and I thank God every day for it, and unpublished writers everywhere will be throwing things at your book if they read this, but still…they haven’t lived with the stress of it. It was sometimes a lot of pressure.”
