David Yates Talks King’s Cross Scene for Deathly Hallows, More

A new interview has surfaced online from La Vibra where director David Yates comments on the King’s Cross scene for the upcoming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Just as in the novel by J.K. Rowling, Harry (played by actor Dan Radcliffe) will appear nude for the dramatic scene where Harry meets his former teacher, the late great Professor Dumbledore. This news follows the confirmation from several days ago regarding the Silver Doe chapter where the Horcrux locket caused Ron to imagine his worst fears and played upon his insecurities and emotions, and Dan Radcliffe will be nude in the scene where the illusion Harry kisses Hermione. Also of interest is apparently another new scene written for the movie, this involving Harry and Hermione dancing. Translation from Snitchseeker:

“Well, Dan (Radcliffe) has appeared nude in the past, but there are a
couple of scenes in the new film in which he will undress, but we’re
still thinking about how we present it. “It’s a fascinating scene in which Harry and Ron (Rupert Grint) are
trying to kill a Horcrux (a magical creature). It tries to defend
itself and creates an image of Voldemort’s soul, that shows has a
series of images where Harry and Hermione (Emma Watson) are kissing and
embracing. And we will create something that feels very sexy and very
intriguing to bring about reaction in Rupert (who is in love with
Hermione).”There is another scene in Kings Cross station, where Harry almost dies
and sees Dumbledore. In that scene he will also be naked,” he added.

“It’s very difficult to find a favorite scene, but something we just
did as part of the movie truly is priceless. It’s a scene where
Hermione and Harry dance together and is not in the book – it’s
something we created for the film and is actually very tender, very
nice and respectful, and they also reveal some secrets about each other
while dancing,” said Yates.”
