| | | Alan Rickman doesn't talk Half-Blood Prince at Sundance festival Entertainment Weekly interviewed actor Alan Rickman who plays Severus Snape in the Harry Potter films. He recently attended the Sundance Film Festival for his new film Bottle Shock.
If fans expected him to talk about his Potter alter-ego, they were, once again, disappointed: Quote: Okay, I think your wranglers are giving me the signal, but I have to say, even before I got to the end of the Harry Potter books —
Before you go any further, I never, ever talk about that character. Number one, because it's not fair on kids who haven't read to the end. And for me to say anything — there's a bit of it that just should be left innocent. It's real storytelling, what she's done, and I'm part of that. So I just never talk about it.
Rickman also mentioned that he will begin filming his parts in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince at the beginning of February. Concerning his bigger role in the sixth installment, Rickman had this to say: Quote: It's a bigger part for you this time.
Ahh.... There's important stuff. [Smiles]
Pictures of Alan at the event can be seen here.
You can see Alan Rickman as Severus Snape in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince when it hits theatres in November 2008. |

I love that man!!!! I think it is refreshing that he doesn't want to spill the beans for children who have yet to read to the end.....see, he's not a bad guy, lol....

Love him. I've been excited to see him perform HBP!Snape since the moment I finished reading the book. He's one actor that I'm positive will not disappoint no matter how crappy the directing or script.

Good man! I really hope they don't cut much of his role. I knew they must do DD-Snape thing but Snape appeared also in the book before that.

I think it's wonderful that he doesn't discuss the character of Snape and reveal anything for those who may not have read the book (I'm sure there are a few around somewhere.) I find that very honorable of him.

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |
