While promoting
Wild Target Rupert Grint talked to
Radio 1's Newsbeat about trying to steal a prop from the set of
Goblet of Fire and meeting famous people on set including the Obamas and the frontman of the Kaiser Chiefs.
Quote:
"I took the golden egg that was in the fourth film - a dragon egg. Apparently it was worth a few thousand dollars. I put it in a pillowcase, it was with (onscreen brother) James (Phelps), it was a joint effort. But they tracked it down and got it off us.
"A wand I think would be nice to keep. They don't really like things going away from the set."
Of Michelle Obama and the Kaiser Chiefs, Rupert said;
Quote:
Rupert said: "She was great. It was one of her daughter's birthdays and they did this big kind of ceremony and we had loads of cupcakes.
"It was quite a surreal day."
Quote:
"At the beginning they were really excited. I think they were there for like four days in the end.
"They were literally just in the back standing by some lifts in the Ministry of Magic. They got over it pretty quickly - it wore off," Rupert said.
