| | |  Rupert Grint gives OotP update
There’s a new online interview with Rupert Grint where he talks a bit about how filming is going for Order of the Phoenix. Quote: You were recently getting ready to film the Thestral scenes in the fifth Harry Potter movie. Have you finished those yet?
"Yeah, we did those the other day. It was really a good time because they had to make a mold, a specially made harness that goes under your legs, because in the film it has to be invisible. [The Thestral is a magical horse-like creature that is only visible to those who've witnessed death.] They put you on this crane and lifted you up in the air. That's been my favorite scene so far."
And that was done on a green screen?
"Yeah. We're working on a lot of the final scenes now, the Dumbledore's Army stuff."
What's next for you? When does 'The Order of the Phoenix' wrap?
"We're finished the middle of November, I think."
And you get a break after that?
"Yeah. We don't start the next one until next summer, so there's quite a big break. I'm going to try and do something else in-between."
I've heard you're afraid of spiders, are there any in the new film?
"They were going to put in a scene where a spider comes down on my leg while I'm hiding under a tree, and they were going to use a real spider. So they were doing tests with different spiders, letting them crawl on my leg. They ended up cutting it because I couldn't really deal with it."
Were they using tarantulas?
"Yeah, baby tarantulas. They're horrible."

Wow ... so like your cuteness factor just exploded a thousandfold   He's too cute ...  I'll protect you from the mean evil spiders Rupert ... *madglomps* We've got loads of them in Texas ... furry legs make them kind of iffy ... but ... I'm sure I could handle it.
So they finish filming in November ... I wish they'd just put it out already ... and he's gonna try to do something else on break ... *squeeeeeeeeeeeeee* more Rupert on film more for me to watch *squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee*

Whoa, that must have been fun.

Eek, I can’t wait to see the DA in action. *anticipates*

Which means they’re nearly done – Huzzah! It’s been long enough.

Awww, poor Rupe. *loves* It’s sort of funny too, come to think of it – He’s afraid of Spiders. But, then again, so am I. 
Quote:

I would think so; I’m glad he didn’t have to do that scene.  | |

Cool! It's good to know they are coming to the end of filming, because it can only mean one thing...the film is coming!!! I so can not wait to see this film, by the sounds of it, it is going to be way better than GoF, i hope they keep some light stuff in though other wise it will be a bit of a depressing film, and well we're all going to be on the edge of our seats at the end of the film anyway...
