| | | John Hurt talks Ollivander's torture in Deathly Hallows
In a new interview, actor John Hurt spoke about returning to the Harry Potter film series in Deathly Hallows. Hurt was originally featured in the first installment of the franchise, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone as enigmatic wandmaker Ollivander. Hurt mentioned how much his young costars have grown, and give a tidbit about Ollivander's fate in Deathly Hallows. Quote:
It’s very strange really. I did the first one and thought that would be it. Nobody knew whether it was going to be successful. When I came back last December to do the last two, suddenly everybody’s grown up. Daniel’s 20. It’s very peculiar.
Quote:
[The fans are] crazy about Ollivander — they love him! I’m not sure they will when they see the next one when he’s being tortured. I’ve never been pestered for an autograph. I get asked — usually by parents because the children are a bit too shy to ask. But I’ve never been pestered; I have a very good class of fan.

I will end up crying when he is being tortured. I cried in the book so when I see the image on screen then I will 
Can't wait for the first installment in November with Malfoy Manor but the Second Part will be absolutely amazing. Except for everyone dying!!!!!!!!!!!Again,

He's just perfect for Ollivander. Just is. The HP stars have grown up so much from the first film.

I like him as Ollivander and I think he will be convincing in the scenes.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Hydra LeMaire First Year | Not gonna lie, when I was little Ollivander kinda freaked me out. But, I'm glad he was spared in the last HP book.

YES! Tis going to be epic! I would flock to John Hurt if I saw him in the street. He is amazing. He was in my favorite movie, V for Vendetta, and played an awesome dictator.
