Eddie Redmayne seen parts of second 'Fantastic Beasts', talks Olympics, Harry Potter
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them franchise lead Eddie Redmayne revealed his favorite Harry Potter book and film in a recent interview. Those answers can be read below.
Eddie Redmayne: “My favorite film is probably the finale — Deathly Hallows: Part 2.”
“With the last two, they had something I kept rewatching, going back and watching Ralph Fiennes and Daniel Radcliffe do that extraordinary duel. When you’re [casting spells on set], the effects of this huge tension of what’s coming out of your wand is put [into the shot in post-production; you’re] literally acting with nothing, and I found it so operatic and deeply moving. I found it so climatically satisfying.”
Eddie's favorite Harry Potter book:
Quote:
“I suppose I’d go with the first. My little brother, when he was 6 years old, he would always read it, and it had that instant immersion into the world that made you release your imagination.”
The Oscar-winning actor headed to Rio de Janeiro this week partly to promote the OMEGA Watch brand, for which he is global ambassador, and as well to catch up to the Summer Olympics in Brazil.
Redmayne was asked on Saturday evening to relate Harry Potter to the Olympics, to which he said that Quidditch would inevitably come to the games. More on that can be seen here.
Redmayne also stated he's read tidbits of the second Fantastic Beasts movie, in which he returns as Newt Scamander, but not the full script from J.K. Rowling as of yet.
