| | | Sean Biggerstaff interview
In an interview about his new film Cashback, HP actor Sean Biggerstaff (Oliver Wood) mentions the first time he met his friend and fellow HPer Alan Rickman (Professor Snape) at an audition. Quote:
I was walking down Buchanan Street and a friend of mine came running out and shouted: 'The baddie from Die Hard is here!' I don't think I'd actually seen Die Hard, so I walked in and went: 'Oh! You mean the Sheriff of Nottingham is here.' I'm sure he would have hated to have heard that.
And did his friendship with Rickman help when it came time to audition for the role of Oliver Wood in Harry Potter? Quote:
I don't know how much of a factor it was, but certainly a recommendation from Alan is no bad thing in this business.
And in case you’ve ever wondered why Oliver Wood wasn’t featured in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban: Quote:
I was at the read-through but [producer] David Heyman called and said: 'As it stands, you're a glorified extra and that's a waste of your time and our money. Sorry.' But, you know, what's the difference between doing two and doing three?
Cashback will be shown at the Glasgow Film Festival on Feb. 15 and 16. |

Okay... I'm beginnnig to dislike David heyman for calling dear Seanie a glorifrigginfied extra. I mean, what the?~! Isn't quidditch a big part of Harry's life?? And when they finally win the Quidditch Cup, isn't that a big deal? But nooo~ Cut off that whole bit and change the whole bloody story of PoA. Way to go, Cuaron.
