Here’s the first tinsy bit of news re: Wild Target @ The Isle of Man. No new pics I’m afraid, however Manx Radio (the Isle of Man’s local station) reports on their website that filming has indeed begun, and we especially love this bit:
A movie with an all-star cast has begun filming in the Isle of Man. ‘Wild Target‘ stars Bill Nighy, Emily Blunt and Harry Potter’s Rupert Grint, who have already shot some scenes in London. It’s a comedy film, in which Nighy plays an assassin who recruits Grint as his apprentice, leading to chaos and mayhem.
You may read the article entitled Manx film stars Harry Potter actor here. Thanks Francaise3!
Btw, weather forecast for the IoM is: Rain today, dry and bright tomorrow, which means the cast and crew will probably be filming the outdoor scenes tomorrow. Hopefully some new photos will emerge soon!
UPDATE: Good news spread fast! Now BBC News has copied (practically verbatim) the Manx Radio article that we found this morning. And apparently they reckon that Rupert is the biggest star of the lot! Read it here, and thanks Cinderella!!! *Buzz, buzz, buzz*





I think/hope it is only the start!
need more!!!
Yeah! Still I was glad to post this, because it gave me the opportunity to use this wonderful WT News icon!!!
I know.. cant keep starig at the icon
gosh.. hoping we will get sth as precious as those photos
Yay! want moooore
all star cast! SIGHS…. more more more please!!!!
Rupes is an all star indeed, look even the simpliest of headlines like that excite us!
Seriourly, that picture in your WT News icon needs to be in your main page picture slide show.
I could stare at it all day. lol
Okay, my spelling has all gone shot to hell. I meant “Seriously”, not whatever the hell I wrote. lol
It’s ok suzeeq…
Yeah I think sometime soon we will switch around the site pictures so we shall see.
Maybe we´ll never watch Rupert dancing his rap song but Oclumência posted some few screen tests of Freddie Storma, who plays Cormac McLaggen, Ron´s “rival” on HBP.
If you´re interested, they are the blue links on the post:
http://www.oclumencia.com.br/2008/10/videos-de-testes-do-freddie-stroma-o-cormaco-mclaggen/#comments
No one of them are related with HBP, but since he worked with Rupert, it´s a nice thing to watch while we wait for some news.
I honestly don’t care about Freddie Stroma.
No offence but what is with people linking to articles/pictures/……of other actors that have nothing to do with what the site is about. I don’t wanna sound mean or anything (I probably do *lolz*) But it would be like me going to a Dan site (lolz again, like I’ve ever done that) and post in the comments a link to an Emma photoshoot.
And yay for more “buzz”. Now bring on the pictures!
Hey guys, did you know this news is now on BBC?
And they’re actually dealing with the news as Rupert news
hehehehehee
ummmm, it wouldn’t let me post the link here…. why?
well Laura.. I think it is ok to post other things as well.. especially as it is low with news
and it is HP related still ..
so Carmen… what with BBC? *excited*
Thank you Lilly. His US accent made me giggle. The pictures of Ron and Cormac look so fierce, it’s nice to be able to put my imagination to work on how those scenes will play out.
Laura, excuse me this was a bit rude and childlish from you.
I´m sure that this doesn´t happen with you, but I think by now most of people here know me and also how much I like Rupert.
Since we don´t have any news about him, I thought it was a good thing to show everybody, because he worked with Rupert, and I know lots of people here don´t care about anothers actors photos links since they all work with Rupert. We had on past everybody commenting about his CB and WT partners, as also many Jessie´s photos and links on the comments. Me myself posted a lot of videos of Bill while talking with Tao about him.
It would be much more nice from you if you don´t even comment at all, if this doesn´t interest you or don´t care for anothers person’s post what by the way, I think you already do a lot.
Well, excuse me again.
This is not how I like to be here, but also how I don´t like to be treat. Just confirming Jo´s words anyway, that sometimes I´m not such a “peaceful person.”
I’m sorry if I came off too harsh on you Lilly, I certainly didn’t mean to. It just that I see this on so many other sites that it just starts to get on my nerves. I’m really sorry if it felt like I was directing this to only YOU….which certainly wasn’t my intention.
LOL francaise3, it’s cinderella not Carmen
And it’s nothing new, just the same news, but on BBC, so I found it nice, and it’s actually ranked as one of TOP ISLE OF MAN STORIES.
It wouldn’t let me post the link here *shrugs*, here’s what they said anyway:
{All-star cast filming on island
A comedy film with an all-star cast, including Harry Potter actor Rupert Grint, has started filming in the Isle of Man.
The film also stars Love Actually and Notes on a Scandal actor Bill Nighy, who plays an assassin who recruits Grints’ character as his apprentice.
Shooting of “Wild Target” is taking place around the island, including Douglas, Ramsey and St John’s.
The Manx leg of shooting will last three weeks until 27 October.}
Probably stupid of me to be glad for this, but he, I just find it nice
Cinderella,
More “buzz” is always good no matter how much copy/paste it is
he he
sorry Cinderella… silly me..
and yeah it is great that is on BBC. And I am also happy about small tibids of news
better than no news at all!
