  • Bonnie Wright “shocked” to find out her character Ginny marries Harry Potter

    Harry Potter star Bonnie Wright has admitted she was “shocked” to find out her character Ginny would be marrying Harry at the end of the story.

    Bonnie, 18, plays protagonist Harry’s love interest in the books and she had no idea about the way the books would go when she signed up for the role.

    When Bonnie started work on the first film Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, author JK Rowling had only written four out of the seven novels and Bonnie said the author suggested something big would happen.

    Bonnie said: “She gave me a hint a while back. She said: ‘Get excited about book seven – you’ll be doing something really big!’

    “But I was pretty shocked when I found out I would end up marrying Harry.”

    Bonnie admitted fame can be scary as a lot of the press stories written about her aren’t true.

    She said: “It’s a little daunting. It’s a bit odd to see websites that people have set up about me – it’s lovely that they’re supportive, but it can be a little bit creepy!

    “And I’ve already seen a few odd things written about me. One newspaper said I hooked up with Zac Efron at the 17 Again premiere in London – I didn’t even talk to him!”

  • Daniel Radcliffe says children are “much cooler” to talk to than adults.

    Teenage Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe says he’s looking forward to having children because they’re “much cooler” to talk to than adults.

    The schoolboy wizard, who will turn 20 this month, gushed about his excitement to become a dad. He returns to Hogwarts in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

    Radcliffe said: “I’m excited about the idea of having kids, I’m not going to do it for a while though. A lot of people on the Potter set have had kids recently and to see the difference it’s made in their life. They’re so much more tired than they were before but they’re a lot happier.

    “The joy, they’ve been changed in an amazing way. I do love kids, I think they’re so much cooler than adults to talk to and they’re just honest.

    “They don’t care what they say and they’re hilariously funny.”

    The actor told how making the latest Harry Potter movie tested him emotionally as well as professionally. “I always have great fun making these films,” he said.

    “There were some very hard scenes to film – Dumbledore’s death scene was one.

    “That was very, very hard scene to film because I’ve never lost anybody close to me.”

    Radcliffe is now shooting parts one and two of the final Harry Potter instalment – Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

  • Harry Potter actor Jason Isaacs says fans would have braved an earthquake to attend the film premiere

    Harry Potter actor Jason Isaacs thinks fans of the film would have turned out for the premiere even if there were “earthquakes and tornadoes”.

    Isaacs, who plays the role of evil Death Eater Lucius Malfoy, was at the UK film premiere of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince where it rained heavily and there was a thunderstorm.

    However, many fans still braved the weather to attend and Isaacs said: “Frankly I think they would turn out in earthquakes and tornadoes.

    “That’s the effect the Harry Potter stories have. A lot of people have tried to understand why, but nobody really understands. It’s magic.”

    The film’s lead star Daniel Radcliffe, 19, was soaked by the downpour, which reports say was three months’ rain in three hours.

  • Daniel Radcliffe says it’s “incestuous” to think of dating Emma Watson

    Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe has said it’s “incestuous” to think about himself and co-star Emma Watson dating.

    Daniel and Emma, both 19, have been the subject of many media reports speculating that they might be a couple, and they have constantly denied the rumours.

    Filming is currently under way for the final flick in the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, which will be split into two films.

    Daniel, Emma and co-star Rupert Grint were just 11 years old when the first film came out.

    He said: “There was a period when we were the only boys and girls any of us knew. And so, you know, we were all unbelievably horny from about the third film to probably about the end of the fifth, then it all settled down. But, God, for a few years… ”

    He added: “There was never anybody I fancied that much in the cast, though the conspiracy theorists always like to say that me and Emma are dating.”

    He added: “Even if we were that much in love with each other, I don’t think we could bear to give the press the story.

    “We know it’d be everything the fans ever wanted. I’m sorry, guys. it’s not happening. It’s just not. There’s something really incestuous about the idea of it.”

  • James Bond tops ‘culture chart’

    bond-james-bond-007.jpg

    James Bond’s Casino Royale has topped the UK’s first “culture chart”, bringing together sales of DVDs, books, CDs and computer games in one rundown. The Casino Royale DVD sold 2.3 million copies in the first half of 2007, ahead of The Queen DVD in second place. James Bond is by far the best selling movies of all times, even if the recent reports that the movies of Harry Potter have sold more it ticket sales and out placed James Bond from the number one slot of all time box office sales, one thing that the people who have made this report would not have taken into consideration is that the first Harry Potter movie was released after 2000 and James Bond – the character and the movies series has being there for more than 40 years. To remain such an iconic movie for such a long duration and to be accepted to a wide generation of cinema goers is what gives the edge to James Bond in my opinion.
