Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom) was present at Collectormania 2008 in Manchester, England yesterday, giving a talk with his brother (Anthony Lewis who was there for his role in
Torchwood) and signing autographs. We have some pictures of him from the event which can be found
here.
When asked about using a sword in
Deathly Hallows, he said;

"Oh yeah. It'll be really cool but I'm going to have to have lots of training. We did with Order of the Phoenix and using the wands but this one is going to be much more extensive."

To which his brother responded;
Quote:
|
"There'd have to be for anyone to trust him with a sword."

Matt also said he's 'really excited' about the theme park in Orlando and hopes to be able to visit it free of charge.
UPDATE: A collectormania attendee spoke with Matt who said he was still filming and would be called back for more shoots up until September. Further to that, Matt confirmed that
Deathly Hallows would be two films.
Note: A two-part
Deathly Hallows film has
not been confirmed by Warner Bros. at this time.
UPDATE #2: Further quotes from the talk;
Quote:
Matt Lewis: "I'm just going to have some water... See, give me a microphone and I feel the need to tell everyone everything I'm doing."
Anthony Lewis: (reads label off of bottle of water)
Matt Lewis: "The best a man can get." *satisfied gasp*

Quote:
Anthony Lewis: "I was in a bar two nights ago and I saw Ralph Fiennes (Voldemort). It was weird to see him with a nose!"
Matt Lewis: "Did you call him Ralph or Rayf?"
Anthony: (laughs) "I was tempted to call him Ralph!"
Matt: "Doesn't he behead people for that?"
