Thanks to Shoshana for emailing me about a new movie about the HP fandom. She says: “‘We are Wizards’ is an insiders look on the Harry Potter fandom, highlighting some of the people who are major figures in the Harry Potter community as well as just a general overview of the community the series has created.” It is a documentary by Josh Koury and it Opens in NYC at the Cinema Village on November 14, 2008.

Here are links to the trailer and facebook page!

Ralph Fiennes spoke about his role as Lord Voldemort in Half-Blood Prince at the London premiere of his new movie, The Duchess.  He confirmed that he is in the film.

Talking about the forthcoming Harry Potter film, The Half-Blood Prince, in which he stars, Fiennes said: “I haven’t seen it yet so I’m not sure if it’s scarier than the others.”

Digital Spy, has a new interview with Tom Felton.

“I feel slightly under pressure. When we’re in the studios there’s kids coming around all day. It’s not so bad for me as Draco because he’s a bad character, but there are these kids that look up to the cast. There’s definitely a feeling that you need to keep things under your hat.” There’s also the pride of working for Warner Bros. We don’t want to make an a**e of ourselves and demoralise the producers.”

Speaking about his career plans beyond Potter, Felton said: “Mark my words, if you see me in two years stacking shelves in Tesco, I wouldn’t be surprised.  There’s a mixture of relief and disappointment. It’s a relief because the end is in sight, but equally terrifying is that I don’t know what I’m going to do afterwards. I’ve no idea.”

More images from the French and British 2009 Half-Blood Prince calendars are now online thanks to  UHP and RupertGrint.net! They are in High Resolution! Woohoo!

Thanks to Meredith for letting me know that Daniel Radcliffe is going to be in the October Issue of Details magazine which goes onto shelves on September 9th. She also sent a link to a nice long article. You can see the cover HERE!

Radcliffe faced it alone first, when he began reading Deathly Hallows on a plane trip. “It was very emotional, actually,” he says. “In the front of the book I wrote something Anton Chekhov wrote to the woman he ended up spending the rest of his life with: ‘Hello, the last page of my life.’ Which I thought was very appropriate.”
