Matthew Lewis participates in Walk of Smiles charity, confirmed to star in Wasteland
Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter series) participated in a charity run in his hometown of Leeds this past weekend to benefit the Bethany’s Walk of Smiles charity event, the proceeds to which - around £8,000 this year - will benefit the Martin House Children’s Hospice near Wetherby in Yorkshire, UK. A photo of Matt with numerous youths who participated in the charity walk can be seen below. http://www.snitchseeker.com/gallery/...1153384638.jpg
Matt commented on his choice to participate in the walk, as well as how training will benefit a future role he currently won't disclose. Quote:
He said: “The success of this event is a testament to how hard Bethany has worked and how hard everyone else has worked.
“I’m just so impressed and very privileged to be a part of it.”
“I’m trying to get a bit bigger for a role at the back end of the year. It’s a film but I can’t say too much about it at the moment.”
| Also, SnitchSeeker received confirmation from Matthew's reps that he is indeed set to star in the film Wasteland this fall, alongside former Harry Potter alumnus Timothy Spall, and Luke Treadaway, who mentioned that he will be working with Matt in the film while promoting You Instead last week with Natalia Tena. At the moment there is no further information on Matt's first post-Potter project, including when exactly the film will begin production and where (or if this is the film Matt is currently training for). We will have more on that soon. |
