Half-Blood Prince Location Filming Video and Interview with Tom Felton, Rupert Grint and Dan Radcliffe
HBP FilmThere is new video online tonight from last month’s filming for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince at Gloucester Cathedral in England. Cable channel E! broadcast a new interview with actors Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy), Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley), and Dan Radcliffe (Harry Potter) that included new footage of scenes featuring Harry and Ron walking through the corridors between classes, where Ron says “I don’t want to take potions.” In the interview Tom Felton gives positive news to fans who are anxious about key elements remaining in the movie, as he says that after reading the book and comparing it to the script, he really can’t tell where there has been an obvious cut. We also hear more from Rupert and Dan in this new interview, which you can watch here in our galleries.
“Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” continues production in England, and will be released November 21, 2008. Thanks much to Raadhikah and theDailySnitcher!

I just want to say that Dan makes a really valid point about child actors in the US. I live in Hollywood and while there ARE a lot of nice things about living here (i.e. good food, good shopping, the Harry Potter museum); the general culture is shocking to me and it’s definitely not somewhere I would raise a child. Very often I see child actors and even non-actors being spoiled by their parents/schools/employers to the point where they lose respect for everything in their lives. Then they get bored, and turn into the type of person you see in Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears.
Sometimes I turn around and look out my window at work only to see the paparazzi HOUNDING Britney just because she decided to go out for the afternoon or whatever. It’s awful!
I’m definitely not saying that every child in Hollywood is like that – there are always exceptions – but people here in general just need to chill out a little bit and enjoy a normal life. :)

i agree with the people about the child stars here as opposed to in England… anyways Liam, how do you know they aren’t involving the Gaunts in the film? does it say that somewhere? That would be a pretty big mistake and i’m sure Jo would correct them if they tried leaving it out… the gaunts play a large part in the memories. as for rupert’s interview… he may have a speech problem or difficulty doing interviews such as dysphasia difficulty speaking anxiety, or even a stuttering problem that comes up only when he isn’t under pressure to get things right… some people are great actors, they just can’t do interviews for some reason, no reason to beat him up about it!

Well Laura I read about the Gaunts not being in it a while ago and there not on the casting list, so i decided to post a topic asking wether they were going to be in it or not, and every answer i got back was no. A lot of the people seemed really upset that they were going to leave them out. I will look for proof that there not in it, however i’m like you i’m just praying that they are in it.

No, the Gaunts are not in it… I wonder if Dumbledore will explain Harry about the ring, without using the Gaunt’s memory…?

It says that when Tom compared the book and the script he couldn’t tell where an obvious cut was, well that’s bullcrap because i’m sure people are going to easily notice that the gaunts aren’t in it, and that’s an obvious cut.
After saying that though i’m still looking foward to seeing in in November.
