| | | Julie Walters talks Deathly Hallows & Potter cast
In a new interview with Times Online, actress Julie Walters spoke about her character Molly Weasley, and the highly-anticipated scene she will film with Helena Bonham-Carter (who plays Bellatrix Lestrange) in Deathly Hallows (in which she will reprise her role as the Weasley matriarch): Quote: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is due out this year, and the next two, both based on the final book, are yet to be filmed. “I'm in them loads!” says Walters, and her eyes narrow. Then she does a new accent, which is basically herself, but evil. “I think I have to kill Helena Bonham Carter,” she says.
She briefly discusses her young co-stars, going on about Rupert Grint - her on-screen son Ron Weasley - with great fondness, and notes something in particular about Daniel Radcliffe: Quote:
She speaks of all the young Potter stars, especially Rupert Grint, with real fondness. Daniel Radcliffe, she reckons, will probably end up directing.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will be released in theatres November 21, 2008. |

Well, she and Rupert did HP and Driving Lessons together right? so obviously she's fond of him.
And I can actually see Dan directing...most actors love that.

Julie is a great actress, I can't help but loving her work. And her movie with Rupert, Driving Lessons, is quite good too. There's no way she wouldn't say nice things about him.
And the sceeeeeeeeeene!!! OMG, I hope we can get a nice view of this particular battle! Bellatrix is so easy to hate (and yet is funny too) and Molly is so easy to love...

Hmmm... I wonder why she thinks that of Dan. Though I bet it would be lovely to check a film he directed

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. |

Love her! Great to see that she's read DH, or at least knows her parts in it, and is so praising of Rupes!

i was just wondering if as a veteran of film and stage if she sees something about Dan's current popularity that would impact on his future acting career triggering him to go towards directing, or does she see in him a genuine talent, "a gift" that directors have, the way a young red head actor named Ron Howard eventually became one of Hollywood's most talented directors?
