| | |  Chris Rankin: Percy is a "nasty piece of work"
In a new interview with Surrey Online, Chris Rankin has spoken about his character, Percy Weasley, in regards to ' Order of the Phoenix' as well as reflecting on his experiences in the Potter franchise. Quote:
"Over the course of the films, he's [Percy's] gone from being a stuck-up, poncey prefect to quite a nasty piece of work," says Rankin.
"My character didn't appear in the last film but, when he makes his return in the next one, he starts to become really obnoxious.
"By that stage, of course, he's working for the Ministry of Magic and he's become so power-hungry that he'll step on anyone to get where he wants.
"And let's just say that the Minister for Magic, Mr Crouch, has his shoes well and truly kissed!"
Chris also talks about what he'd like to see happen to Percy in the last book; "Obviously, for my part, I'm hoping that Percy's descent into evil will continue, and by the end, he'll be Voldemort's second in command, or something like that."

Well obviously he knows his character well!! And I think most of us will agree with him when he says Percy is a "nasty piece of work." As for him descending further into evil, I actually never saw him as a baddy. I just thought he was a dung head!!

Err.....Chris needs to reread the books. Fudge is the Minister of Magic and Crouch died in Goblet of Fire. I am sure it's just a slip up but you would think an editor would have caught the mistake and correct it.

That's nice interview. I hope that Percy's character is featured a lot in the next film. I really like how he's portrayed.

I guess even magical families can have their 'black sheep'. The part I hate about him is that he unrepentently makes his mum cry! What an awful son!

I'm glad Chris is back. It's good to have all the Weasley's intact for this movie. And he has an interesting take on what Percy's problem is. Even though I think Percy is more about pleasing than being power hungry. lol And I think Percy's going to sacrafice himself to save one of his siblings (*cough*Ron*cough*) and end up giving his life for them... Besides, a Weasley with Voldemort? That's just wrong. :p
