| | | Potter cast eager for Deathly Hallows
In a new interview with The Times Brendan Gleeson (Mad-Eye Moody) has spoken about how the cast are eager to see what their characters do in Deathly Hallows. He also talks briefly about his experiences as a teacher. Quote:
“Everyone’s waiting for the seventh book, and looking at each other saying, ‘Oh, I wonder will I be in the running?’” says the 52-year-old Irish actor Brendan Gleeson.
Quote:
“So I met up with [ Goblet of Fire director] Mike Newell and said that I didn’t want to do him unless he had the same impact as in the book, you know, as a surrogate father to Harry Potter. And when the script came back, it was a fantastic role.”
Quote:
Gleeson also admits that as a former English teacher he was enthusiastic about the chance to get back into the classroom again. “Only this time I could do it with magical powers and no conscience,” he giggles. In fact, Gleeson can claim the honour of being the only actor in the entire Potter franchise ever to have been a “real life” teacher.
Quote:
He says, on reflection, and after some prodding, that he is intensely territorial about old Mad Eye. “If the character has something crucial to do in the seventh book, then I want to be there to do it.” And no doubt he will.
The whole interview can be read here. |

And I cannot wait for DH either ... I can't believe we'll get it THIS WEEK! |

Oh my, in 5 days half the world will stop to read DH. Spooky isn't it?

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

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,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
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. |
