Wild Target Soundtrack To Feature Liam Shachar

» August 16 by Sam in Rupert News, WT News with 4 Comments

2u4ojmx August 16, 2009 at at 11:19 pm–Rupert Grint’s upcoming film Wild Target, where he plays the unlikely apprentice of a professional assassin, will be accompanied by a soundtrack featuring DJ Liam Shachar’s work “The Waves.” Shachar’s Facebook page recently included a blurb stating that:

My track “The Waves” is gonna be featured on “Wild Target” a new film by director Jonathan Lynn and staring Bill Nighy and Emily Blunt.

This track sounds very sexy,  and is a good house jam mixed with some sultry vocals and a little electronica feeling. It will probably make for some very good background to the actions sequences we’re sure to see in Wild Target.

For more info on Liam and his music, you can check out his websitemyspace page, facebook page, or even his twitter page.

Thank you Laura. ;)

By the end of the interview, she has gifted him with an interesting hat and asked if she can ride on his back.

Of course, Rupert obliges.

» July 15 by Sam in HP News, Rupert News with 30 Comments

28km3yo1July 15, 2009, 12:51 am– MSNBC has a new article on Rupert Grint, Daniel Radcliffe, and Emma Watson, citing how they’ve grown up and managed to stay out of trouble. The writers also provide some “friendly advice” for each of them. Here’s what they say for Rupert:

1. Hook up with the smart British comedians. 2. Be a leading man, but subvert the paradigm. 3. Talk to Professor Snape.

To elaborate on the last one slightly, MSNBC offered Rupert some good words of wisdom about taking a Hollywood stereotype like the British Bad Guy and run with it in the style of Alan Rickman.

Read the full article here.

July 8, 2009, 3:39 PM–This morning, Splash News Online photographed Rupert Grint leaving London’s Claridge’s Hotel. After a very rainy premiere yesterday for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, Rupert is all smiles and laughs as he signs autographs and grins for a few pictures. It looks like the terrible weather yesterday didn’t dampen his spirits or his health!

You can view the pictures in our gallery here.

Also, remember that there are still videos coming in from yesterday’s red carpet. Stay tuned to Rupert On TV for the latest on Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince’s UK premiere. And Laura has uploaded another premiere vid to Youtube here.

There are some great reviews coming in, so be sure you’re glancing at our Rave Reviews section to see what critics have to say about Rupert’s performance!

Update: This Is London has an article up discussing the serious amount of snogging taking place in not only Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, but also Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The piece contains quotes from Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, and Daniel Radcliffe regarding all the smooching, including this lovely statement from Emma:

“On screen kisses are never nice and you sort of dread them. We know each other so well we are like brother and sister, and everyone on set was teasing us about the day we would have to kiss. But actually Rupert’s a real gentleman and if I had to kiss anyone I’m glad it was him. There were no tongues involved.”

Rupert also reflected on the kiss:

“I filmed the kiss with Emma on the next movie a couple of weeks ago, it was weird. We’ve known each other so long and neither of us really wanted to do it but we just had get on with it, get into the character and then is was quite nice, but we were in a scary place to begin with.”
