Rupert Grint’s WT Character is Called Tony! Plus WT Crew Eagerly Awaited on the Isle of Man!
Two new articles on Wild Target have just surfaced. First of, we finally get to know the names of Rupert’s and Emily’s characters! According to this article, published by ThisIsBristol, Antoine becomes Tony (logical, innit?!) while the character of Renee is renamed Rose.
The other article by IOM Today indicates that the first scenes for Wild Target are being filmed in London, while the crew is expected to arrive to the Isle of Man on 7 October and spend the remaining three weeks there! The article also offers some additional information on the movie plot as well as some production details.
Thanks Ki and Francaise!

Lol I’m so excited! I felt that these news deserved a separate post!
September 17th, 2008
And as I said below, we really need to start a new Rupert’s Army project. We need to bug magazines like Empire and Total Film and such to feature Rupert! Three films in a row in 2009. two more blockbusters secured (i.e. DH 1 & 2), that’s something!
Has any of you guys had a chance to read our Rupert’s Army section yet? If not, please do so, and get ready for a new project! I’ll update soon!
September 17th, 2008
Ivana – I think they are not filming yet in Isle of Mine.
The article says –
The production, which began its London shoot on Tuesday, will arrive in the Isle of Man on October 7 for three weeks.
I think they’re in London now.
September 17th, 2008
Oh well, let me correct. I’m so excited, don’t know what I’m typing! Forgive me!
September 17th, 2008
No biggy!
Just so to know where to look for him!
he he
September 17th, 2008
Tony— that’s my father’s name. =D
I’m so happy for Rupert. YAYAYAYAYAY!!!
September 17th, 2008
ttttttttttonyyyyyyyy
I just got a picture of an Italian maffia
September 17th, 2008
Yesssssss , this is great! Im really really excited!
*squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee*
September 17th, 2008
Neglo we need a Wild Target icon pronto!
September 17th, 2008
Ivana, how close are you to Birkhead or Heysham? That’s probably where he’ll cross on the ferry that first week of October (hey, isn’t there a famous song about a ferry and the Mersey?).
I imagine he’d want a car on the island with him, although I doubt he’ll have much free time. Or get one of your students to stake out the Liverpool airport (most flights to Ronaldsway leave from Liverpool).
Who’s got money to um…persuade a Hilton worker to take some breakfast pictures?? No, I’m no stalker, really. I wouldn’t dare do something so crazy as notice all the executive suites are booked the 2nd week of October….. That’s just wrong!
September 17th, 2008
Yeah, Ferry Cross the Mersey by Gerry and the Pacemakers! Love that song! Greater Manchester is right next door to Merseyside. Actually there’s quite a bit of animosity between Liverpudlians and Mancunians (like: who’s better, cooler, smarter etc.)
I’m yet to finalise my stalking strategy, but I’m working on it!
September 17th, 2008
aw cool,! and thank you ki.
September 17th, 2008
Looks like I need to update the side bar with the character name. Weee! So glad we’re finally getting new information.
I’m so excited, really.
September 17th, 2008
We do have a Liverpudlian RupieGroupie, Ruth Hannah, but she hasn’t been around in a while. I think she’s busy with her studies.
September 17th, 2008
Hey, I’ve managed to link ALL the UK acting Ruperts!! It’s more than 6 degrees, but I now believe in two short years he will be linked with all living UK thesbians (and at least 1/4 of all acting Americans).

You forgot Rupert Penry-Jones!
September 17th, 2008
LOL Rupert’s a good name!
I was just telling my mom that if anyone needed any further proof that Rupert is a terrific actor that can hold his own, look no further than Wild Target. There is no way that anyone would cast someone who couldn’t act and/or hold his own with such heavy hitters. It would literally drag down the film! So hooray! Rupert proves that he’s one of the best young actors out there.
September 17th, 2008
Glad to hear the new names. I was really wondering about that. Is so excited. I’m hoping we get some pics from filming soon. When the heck will CB release some more pictures? I know it’s only September but I’m so anxious.
September 17th, 2008
Like I said on the other entry, I knew his character´s name would be Tony, since the first news, I told you Tao, do you remember?
Hope we have some photos soon.
Val, what about “Cible Emouvante”?
I just finished to watch here on TV “The last King of Scotland” and saw that was written by Jeremy Brock in the same year of “Driving lessons”. Yeah, the guy is good!
Forest Whitaker is terrific, and James McAvoy is so good and cute!!

September 17th, 2008
Bingo Bilius! You’re ace!
September 17th, 2008
Oh dear! I wanted to go to London in October! Ah, I might switch to the Isle of Man or go later…
Tony is great, but it reminds me so much of West Side Story… :/
September 17th, 2008
Just saw that James McAvoy worked with Paul Giamatti in his last movie “The Last Station” and will work with Emily Blunt in the next one, an animation, “Gnomeo and Juliet “!
September 17th, 2008
Hi Lilly im uploading right now.
I wasnt home yesterday, I arrived until night and i found out that my dad turn off the computer cos I wasnt there and he didnt know about the uploading. My misake cos I didnt tell him.
I will let you now as soon as they are up
I
September 17th, 2008
That’s it! I’m starting a ‘game’ thread at the forums. Too many connections, my head will explode if I don’t write them down!
Come on suzeeq and Ivana, Vanessa too — I can tell you guys have an aptitude for this geeky stuff!
NO–I will NOT slow down, dambit! Too much caffeine.
September 17th, 2008
Thank you so much, Val!
I was asking about you since yesterday!
I think, like Ivana said, you should post the links on the forum.
I´m crazy to see it!!
Bilius, like someone on LJ said, “that little island just have 50 actors!”

But quality and quantity and not always are together.
September 17th, 2008
Two much “ands”! :/
September 17th, 2008
*squees* I’M SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!
PICS ASAP FANGIRLS!!!
September 17th, 2008
We are definitely working on getting you some more Wild Target information so hang tight, we have soo much we are working on but it’s exciting.
September 17th, 2008
Yep Lilly
Ivana told me to open a theme in the restricted area so I can put the links over there.
Can you give me a little hand? Where do I add it? Under the Wild Target section or where where where? lol
September 17th, 2008
Yay can’t wait for it Jo!
It’s strange that SS hasn’t posted the new revealed cast memeber and such. I noticed that rg.net is down, do they only take news from them? perhaps I should email them the articles.
*so excited*
September 17th, 2008
They do Laura, but it might not be anything they feel like posting. It’s not major news or anything. lol
Oh, I just added a ‘Tony’ child board to the Wild Target forum.
September 17th, 2008
I emailed it to them anyway.
And not major news……Emma talking about tavelling isn’t exactly earth shattering either…..*lolz*
September 17th, 2008
At first Lilly I thought you were talking about the Isle of Man (Ellan Mannin) — which is a REALLY small island (my town has a bigger population). Doh! You meant the UK, or at least the island that contains England, Scotland, and Wales! Yeah, it is small, but it seems that all UK actors have a job — even Princess Beatrice for Cripe’s Sake! (she’s in Young Victoria — very fitting)
September 17th, 2008
Haha! No, not Earth shattering, but I think it was an interview? Oh well. There will be plenty of Rupertness throughout 2009 that no one can ignore!
September 17th, 2008
Bilius lol! I’m there! MMMMM. Matthew MacFayden. I love Death at a Funeral.
September 17th, 2008
Yeah they might not post it, I was even told they didn’t feel that the news about Emily replacing Helena was worth posting, shrugs. Oh well what matters is that we get the news to Rupert fans.
September 17th, 2008
Tao or Ivana, could any of you help Val?
She asked where she could post the links for “Cible Emouvante” at the forum.
Bilius, like I said, they have quality there!
Didn´t know about Beatrice, well how couldn´t she find some job?
And don´t worry about those sites girls, soon HP movies will be just some of Rup´s big list.
September 17th, 2008
I don’t know, if Ivana said to post it in the restricted area then just create a thread there and post the links. If it needs to be moved that can easily be done.
September 17th, 2008
Where’s the restriced area?
September 17th, 2008
In the forums Laura, the adult fanfiction area is the restricted part. PM one of us mods and we can send you the passcode.
September 17th, 2008
Ok thanks Jo. I will do it once i get home.
September 17th, 2008
leaky just added info on WT filming!
good.. good.. very good…
September 17th, 2008
Oh, I just realised that Rupert plays in a film with VIKTOR and ROSE?! HP, anyone???
(The only Anthony is Dolohov, however…)
September 17th, 2008
*Antonin*. But same family as Tony
September 17th, 2008
This movie is going to be huge!! without a doubt!
September 17th, 2008
Lilly, Princess Beatrice plays a “lady in waiting” to Victoria — played by Emily Blunt. I bet that was awkward.
Director: “Your highness, would you please enter stage left and hand Emily her robe?”
Director: “Ok Emily, now slap your lady in waiting for being impertenant.”
MI5 security guard: “Unit 2, take down the offender!”
September 17th, 2008
Oh, there is a new article… well, let me rephrase that. There is a regurgitated article out with this line: Filming is under way today on the latest would-be blockbuster movie to be shot in the Isle of Man. <=–Don’t know if it should be posted simply because there is no proof yet of this, but it did make me smile.
September 17th, 2008
so.. blockbuster.. eh.. not bad
because it really sounds to me as a blockbuster! look at the cast!!!
so.. as we agreed earlier – the bigger – the better!
September 17th, 2008
Tao I just read that about the would be blockbuster! squeeeeee!
September 17th, 2008
Bilius, just got back from a meeting out of town, so I will play six degrees, but I think you can’t use the same actor twice in the game. I think.
Saw all the updates and news coming out. Wow, unbelievable but then when you are co-starring with Bill Nighy, publicity is sure gonna come your way. hehehe And the rest of the cast is sure no chopped liver either.
September 17th, 2008
Lots of news lately….
and rupertgrint.net doesn’t seem to be working…
September 17th, 2008
lol i thought it was going to be Anthony, but yeah, I guess Tony kinda fits the character a bit better. This is all very exciting, I’m sure we’ll be getting pics soon.
September 17th, 2008
Yeah I pretty much figured aswell that is was gonna be Tony or Anthony.
Jo/tao read the short article about the blockbuster thing aswell. All the people over at ONTD can’t WAIT to see it. Some of them didn’t even bother to read what the film is about when they saw the pics of the main cast.
September 17th, 2008
I’ve updated a few pictures in the rob knox funeral area, oh and hot topic alert at my community, you know the place lol and also in the restricted area. of the icm forum…….sizzzzzzzzzling.
September 17th, 2008
Hey guess who did casting for Wild Target?? Karen Lindsey-Stewart, the same person who casted SS and CoS. She’s got a copy of that dang cross-dressing rap tape I bet.
September 17th, 2008
WOah! Thanks Jo !!
Ok. Ladies I started a thread in the restricted area too. I put the link of the first 4 parts of Cible EMouvante so you can download them.
Enjoy!
September 17th, 2008
Thank you so much Val, I was waiting for this since I saw the first part!
And Jo, I left a question for you at LJ.
September 17th, 2008
“She’s got a copy of that dang cross-dressing rap tape I bet.” – Bilius
OHHH. Yea she might have!! LOL. She probably used it to cast Rupe for Wild Target! lol
September 17th, 2008
That seriously needs to be leaked to YouTube. I wonder if we can bribe her…
Thanks Val! I’ve just finished downloading, so I can’t wait to watch.
September 17th, 2008
Poor Rupe, could you imagine if THAT video leaked? He’d be mortified, we’d all be dead from excitement..but him…
September 18th, 2008
I think they should put that video on the last HP DVD. And everyone knows the story anyway, I think Rupert would be able to deal with it quite well. What if he gets a part where he might sing because of it?
September 18th, 2008
Karo, that’s a great idea.. i just wish they put all the audition tapes of most, if not all of the cast, especially the trio’s, and more importantly Rupert’s..
Gahh!!! I think we should bombard WB with that idea before it’s too late!
haha
September 18th, 2008
I’d also love to see everyone’s first screentests. Little Rupes with Emma and Dan
September 18th, 2008
