    • Chris Rankin talks Percy Weasley & Deathly Hallows

      Chris Rankin (Percy Weasely), attended RingCon this weekend, where he spoke exclusively about his thoughts on coming back for Deathly Hallows and his character Percy Weasley's transformation in the final book:

      Will you be in the seventh Harry Potter movie?
      I hope so.
      Did they approach you yet?
      I don't know… (hesitates) That's a very complicated question to answer for a lot of different reasons. If we go by the books then there's no reason why I won't be in them. But until they print the script it could go either way. Fingers crossed!
      What scene are you most looking forward to?
      One of Percy's finest moments is walking back through that portrait into the Room of Requirement at the end of the seventh one when he finally comes back. I can't remember what he says, something like 'Did I miss anything?' (laughs). I just remember reading that in the book and going 'YES! Good boy!'. That would be fun. And then obviously getting to do a bit of action would be quite nice because Percy doesn't get the hardest job really. He just walks around a lot and shouts at people. They might actually give me a wand if I did the seventh film, that would be nice. I haven't had a wand yet!

      Chris also goes into the depths of Percy Weasley's psyche:
      Percy, although one of the most intelligent Hogwarts students, doesn't see through Lord Voldemort's propaganda. Can you identify with him at all?
      I can't really identify with him apart from the fact that we're ginger and round about the same age. Although I was a prefect at school and actually I was a bit of a goodie-goodie. But I am an only child. I don't come from a long line of red-headed children (laughs). But I can understand how he got caught up in the whole ministry propaganda because he's so desperate to succeed. I suppose that comes from the poverty of the Weasley family. They're not rich, they have seven kids but no money and I guess he kind of wants to get out of that.
      Do you believe Joanne K. Rowling wants to teach us some kind of lesson through Percy?
      There are a lot of morals in Harry Potter and everyone realises that Percy was an idiot and even Percy knew he was an idiot so whether or not she was trying to teach us that blood is thicker than water and all that, I don't know. I guess so. He's just a good character from the point of view that he is just a [prat] really. It's nice that he has the chance to come right in the end. I don't think it's wise to try and work out what Joanne K. Rowling is thinking because you could be there a long time.

    • J.K. Rowling talks Harry Potter's fate

      In a new interview segment from her chat with Melissa Anelli, author of Harry, a History (which can be pre-ordered here http:/ /www.amazon.com/Harry-History-Wizard-... & here http://www.amazon.co.uk/Harry-Histor... ), J.K. Rowling talks about Harry Potter's fate in Deathly Hallows.

      Quote: My model with Harry really was war veterans, who have seen horrors and are asked to go home and rebuild, and go back to ordinary life and care for a family, be a father - particularly be a father - [it is] a difficult job, in troubled times. I felt it would be a betrayal of my character if I did anything other than show him doing that. And I think it's an absolutely heroic thing to do, to go home after that, not to become a mercenary, not to live forever frozen in a time of excitement and danger, but to be mentally strong enough, to an extent physically strong enough, to return from war and to raise a new generation with values that you hope will not lead to another war. That's massive.
      Of course you can say, yes, to an extent, as ever in life, that's the eternal paradox. What's most worthwhile may well be seen as slightly dull, but God knows without those people who were prepared to come home and raise the family and rebuild, help rebuild... rebuilding is much more difficult than destroying.

    • Ralph Fiennes talks Voldemort in new interview

      Ralph Fiennes was profiled recently on his body of film work, including playing Lord Voldemort in the Harry Potter films. Ralph talks about his initial hesitation on taking the part of the Dark Lord, as well as analysing the character from a psychological perspective:

      Quote: "I hesitated for a bit before committing to the role because it sort of requires you to personify evil, and I don't know how you do that," Fiennes says. "I latched onto what was maybe crude psychology in working out Voldemort's obsession with Harry.

      Harry was loved by his parents, which Voldemort can't stand. He is, of course, a rejected person. It's quite basic: the rejected child who's emotionally been denied affection turns violent. You have to suggest there's more there, a life, a spirit, a mind. It isn't just a creepy voice and makeup. I always think you can find more in something. It's good to just keep asking questions until someone says cut."
