| | |  Exclusive: Potter cast to attend Belgian Half-Blood Prince premiere (UPDATED)
Reporters from Belgium's Jommeke newspaper visited the Half-Blood Prince set early last year, where they spoke to Jim Broadbent (Slughorn) and Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid), and watched a scene being filmed for the sixth movie.
Scans from the paper can be seen below, which include new behind-the scenes images from Slughorn's Christmas party, the Burrow being burned down, and Harry and Dumbledore visiting Slughorn's summer home.
There were many important notes from the article and interviews. Quote:
• The Belgium premiere for Half-Blood Prince will take place on Saturday, July 11, which Bonnie Wright and Evanna Lynch will be attending.
• Although not confirmed yet, it appears that Dan Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson will only attend the UK premiere for the sixth movie (on July 7th), and no other because of their busy Deathly Hallows film schedule.
• The reporters detail their tour of Leavesden Studios, taking note of the high fences, barbed wire, and security people checking everything and everyone. They visit a room on the set where photographs from the film and costuming are displayed, as well.
• Jim Broadbent talks about how pleased his grandchildren are that he has taken a role in the Harry Potter films, playing Slughorn. He discusses his character, stating that he is not really bad, just a weak person. Slughorn has a wall of photos with himself and celebrated students; the Potions professor also finds it a treat to teach the famous Harry Potter.
• Robbie Coltrane jokes about his three young co-stars, Dan, Rupert and Emma, where he proudly states that fame and fortune has not go to their head, and that they don't believe they are any better than anyone else on set.
• The tour guide, Amy, explains how Quidditch in the sixth film will be bigger than it previously has been; she also shows the reporters around Dumbledore's office and tells them that the famed Astronomy Tower scene took place a week before their arrival.
• The reporters describe the scene they are privileged to watch, which includes Dan, Rupert and Emma, heavily layered in clothing as they walk down a snowy path to Hagrid. Emma and Dan point out the mistakes they make during their takes, of which there are nine before the scene is complete. Between takes, however, Dan and Rupert are noted to throw off their coats as the set is hot, and are eager to go back to Rupert's dressing room and play a game of ping pong. A comment from Dan is published at the end, where he says that filming can get tiring, and that it will be strange to no longer play Harry after Deathly Hallows has completed.
 Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will be released July 15, 2009; tickets are on sale now!  UPDATE: Despite what this newspaper says, Rupert's PR people have confirmed that he, Dan and Emma WILL be in attendance for the U.S. Half-Blood Prince premiere in New York. Thanks to Jo for the tip!  | |

It has been confirmed by ICM that they will attend
UPDATE 2: If you read anything about Rupert not attending the U.S. Half Blood Prince Premiere please disregard. He as well as his co-stars Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson are scheduled to attend | |
