i cant wait to see december boys but i will need to wait longer cause i live in canada.. when will it be here??... i cant wait for half-blood prince either.. but if you have an imagination you can see the movie when you read the book since you know every character and what everything looks like.. i love the accent dan has the asutralian accent he needed for this.. in the trailer i didnt hear much of a difference but seeing those clips i see he changed it quite a bit.. i cant wait for more dan radcliffe movies

Wow two weeks! =D Does anyone know when Evanna is going to be filming her scenes? She wrote me a letter & I want to reply but I want to do it while she’s at Leavesden because her mail isn’t forwarded to her when she’s not there!

Great interview. Can’t wait to see December Boys. But the interviewer kept pronouncing Equus “ekoos”. Yeesh.

kaylyn, December Boys is scheduled to come in October, at least according to Tribute.ca. He looks good and he sounds really excited about starting to film the sixth movie. Can’t wait to see December Boys. He’s also on The Tonight Show on Thursday night.

2007 is truly the year of Dan! This is a very good thing, as for grounded and down to earth (and yes, quite handsome) as he is, one can just not get too much Dan Radcliffe!

Equus to Broadway?!? Yes! I’m there! Went to London to see him, so you know I’m heading to the Big Apple as well!

Becca:

That was really nice that you took time to write to Evanna and she took time to write back. That is what makes this fandom so special … the connection and shared community of the fans … I was sooooo thrilled that Luna was being played by a real fan … I keep re-reading DH to try to find a character that I could play … not too many “50 somethings” in that one … I wonder how old Charity Burbage was … I cry out to Severus for help … wonder if I would have to take dramamine to keep from getting dizzy hanging upside down … either way … Warner Brothers … can I have first dibs on that part :-)
