Tom Felton, Gary Oldman attend Empire Film awards, Deathly Hallows: Part I wins
SnitchSeeker was live at the 2011 Jameson Empire Film Awards, where Emma Watson and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I received nominations this evening. EmmaRiddle was in London for all the up-to-minute updates, and just revealed that Emma Watson, who did not attend, lost out to Noomi Rapace for Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and that Deathly Hallows: Part I did win Best Sci-Fi/Fantasy Film, for which Tom Felton, who did show, received the prize on behalf of the crew involved. Gary Oldman (Sirius Black) received the Empire Icon award, presented to him by Oscar-winner Colin Firth.
EmmaRiddle also got the chance to talk to Tom, Gary, and Nick Moran (Scabior) on the red carpet about their work in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II. We will have those exclusives later this week. For now, keep up to speed on the Empire Awards via our Twitter, which EmmaRiddle is updating with with more news.

“A huge thank you to all the Empire readers and the fans for a decade of support; we wouldn’t be here without you. You must excuse the absence of David Yates; he’d love to be here but he’s putting the finishing touches on our epic finale, which is why I’m here. So thanks again, and have a great evening.”

“Well this is very special, made all the more so receiving it from the hands of Mr Firth. We have just worked together, and not only is he a tremendous actor to work with, but an absolutely wonderful, blinding, darling bloke. Do you have one of these? Well, it’s the only one you don’t have. I look at that montage, and I think about all the directors that have cast me in these iconic roles over 30 years. Alex Cox for Sid and Nancy, who got the ball rolling. There’s Coppola, Stone, Cuaron, Nolan, the Scott Brothers, and more recently Colin and I have had the good fortune to work with the great Tomas Alfredsen. It’s a luminous list, and I acknowledge them and thank them, because they cast me and allowed me to have a long career, and to win one of these. I can’t tell you how nice it feels to have your work honoured. I want to thank Jameson and Empire and the readers and the fans, and Ian Nathan for your generosity. You treat me like a prince. I am chuffed, I am very proud of this. And also, thank you Noomi: the Swedes have always had great taste!”
