Videos: MTV David Heyman, Dan Radcliffe & Emma Watson interviews
MTV has now uploaded videos of their summer preview for Half-Blood Prince, which comprises of three separate clips. Two feature an interview with Dan Radcliffe and one has an interview with Emma Watson. They can all be seen here (note: the content is restricted to the US).
David Heyman also spoke to MTV about cuts made within the Half-Blood Prince film, the themes they focused on, the actors they chose and he discusses the strengths of David Yates as a director.
Quote:
"We're following Harry and his relationship with Dumbledore and his search for this past and the puzzle and the key to defeating Voldemort," the producer said. "We're seeing some of Voldemort's backstory; we're seeing the budding romantic relationship between Harry and Ginny Weasley and the one between Ron and Hermione, as well as Malfoy."
Quote:
"The most difficult choice was to edit out some of the flashbacks in the memories that Harry explores," Heyman explained. "Each film has to exist on its own terms, and alas, within these memories, they're really significant and actually in the whole body of the series play a very significant part, but within the film they are detours in a way, going into a story about Voldemort, who doesn't really appear in this film."
Quote:
"We wanted Slughorn to be a source of humor," the producer said. "You wanted a character who had airs of grandeur but at the same time was really sympathetic and tragic."
Quote:
"One of the great things about working with David Yates is that he's a wonderful director and he's incredibly open and communicative," Heyman said. "He's incredibly ambitious for the franchise, just as I am."
its time to choose between what is right and what is easy
love the interviews!!! cannot WAIT to see the whole Ron and Hermione drama play out!!!
its really too bad they had to take some of the memories out of Voldemort, so i hope they still give the background info needed, because of course thats what shapes the whole seventh book!

I'm so excited to see this movie!!! Half Blood Prince is such a great book and the flashback scenes are key elements to the story, so it kind of sucks that they couldn't put them all in there, but I can defintely see how they could slow down the movie...we don't want it to be boring...but atleast they kept in some of them! I'm really excited about all the romance too...I know it's going to be great!!
