A new article on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is in French magazine One. The article includes interviews with Dan, Emma, and Rupert. Dan confirms he films a scene naked (see our previous article here), Emma talks about kissing Rupert and Dan (what?), and Rupert talks about the physical aspects of the film. Below are a few excerpts (translated from French).
Emma Watson on kissing Rupert & Dan and on filming the epilogue…
“To kiss Rupert in front of cameras will stay the strangest experience for me, since I’ve played in Harry Potter. He and I were frightened about this scene, and wanted to do it quickly. But the hardest is coming … I have to kiss Dan ! It’s a scene where Ron imagines a kiss between Harry and Hermione.”
“We haven’t filmed the epilogue yet, in which we can see the future of Harry, Ron and Hermione 19 years later. At the beginning, producers would like to replace us, but they finally kept us. We will look like 40 years old persons. I’m very impatient to see that !”
Daniel Radcliffe on filming the naked scene and the 7 Potters scene…
“In the Deathly Hallows, you’ll see Harry as you never saw him before ! For example, I shot a scene where I’m entirely naked. When I read the script, I thought that I would wear underwear but no ! I’ve already done it for Equus so it wasn’t so difficult. I’m wondering how people will react, even if any things will be hidden in the screen !”
“Recently, we’ve finished a scene in which I had difficulties. It’s the 7 Potter’s scene ! We had to shoot a take where I was a different Harry instead of the other actors. It was fun, but very hard, because sometimes, I forgot who I had to be … That made me crazy !”
Rupert Grint on the physical scenes and Dan being sick…
“We shot a lot of physical scenes. For Daniel, filming was very complicated. But he never complained … When he became sick because of filming conditions, he was ok and he never complained …”
Thanks to Harry Potter Forever.
