"My character doesn't have any dialogue," comments Devon, "so it was an extra challenge to really portray Young Bill. I spent days in a harness being yanked back and forth by crew members, to simulate the fish fighting on the line, and at one point, the rope snapped and I teetered on the edge of the jetty, nearly falling into the lake!"

Devon is currently playing Seamus in the Harry Potter movies. Devon was an ideal actor to choose as the role was physically demanding, and Devon himself is very fit through his love of horse-riding.

Devon explains, "When playing a young version of a character that also appears as an older incarnation of that same character, but with another actor, it's important to work closely with the other members of the cast, to get mannerisms and personality nuances the same, so the two performances portray a single character."
