March 31st, 2012, 2:51pm–In continuing with the post below we have more to add and wanted a fresh and brand new post. Ice Cream Man got the chance to ask Rupert Grint a few questions on the red carpet today. We will have pictures coming up on Monday but for right now here is the short Q&A with Rupert:

• Have you developed your skiing skills, now that you got your own ones?
  Yeah, they gave me some skies. I am gonna try to do it, because I didn’t do very well in Norway. It’s one of the things I am gonna do.
• Can you tell us about your upcoming project “The Drummer”?
  I am really excited about it. I am a big fan of the Beach Boys. It’s a cool part. It will be something different, it’s American so that will be interesting.
• So there will be an American accent?
  Oh Yeah!

So there we have it, folks! Rupert will be doing an American accent in “The Drummer”!

We also have a few MQ photos of Rupert on the red carpet that were released by various outlets which you can view here. HQ versions coming soon!

March 31st, 2012, 10:48am–Right now Ice Cream Man is at the grand opening event for the Harry Potter Studio Tour with Rupert Grint, Tom Felton, Bonnie Wright and others. We’re waiting to hear from our staff on more but right now images from the event are being released. We’ll be adding many throughout the day and will have HQ pictures as well as soon as we can get them. For now you can view the few we have here. Also keep an eye out for HQ images from the press conference from a few days ago.

I also want to apologize for the lack of updates yesterday. I know there were some awesome Tupert updates. However we’re down staffers with some on vacation and others at the opening and I had to work and got in late. Thanks for understanding!

UPDATE: Here is a video of an ITN interview Rupert did this morning.

UPDATE #2: We have HQ photos now available for the press conference on Thursday. You can view them all here. Plenty more to come. Stay tuned!

March 29th, 2012, 10:29AM– At this very moment, Rupert Grint and our Ice Cream Man staff is present at the press conference before the grand opening of the Harry Potter Studio Tour at Leavesden. Our staff will do their very best to keep you all updated throughout the exciting events of this grand opening.

Our staff has just sent a quote from Rupert stating how he feels about being on the tour for the first time:

It was quite moving, because it is such a special place. I grew up here, went to school. It is Great that people will get the same excitment as we had.

You can see pictures from the press conference here!

Another brilliant quote from a laughing Rupert answering the question: “What would you like to show your future kids on the tour?”

Just walking on set, being here… The brooms are fun… Tom and I took a ride yesterday.

The grand opening itself is on Saturday, which will include a red carpet event. Warner Brothers is offering the opportunity to watch all the action live through their website – you can follow the exciting events as they happen right here. They will be streaming live from 3PM UK time.

Warner Brothers describes the studio tour as a “behind-the-scenes walking tour which immerses guests into the world of film-making, featuring authentic sets, costumes and props, created at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden. The Studio Tour will initially focus on the Harry Potter film series, which has made the Studios its home for over 10 years. This is the ultimate chance to walk around and experience the world of Harry Potter and the place Rupert Grint has called home for over 10 years as Ron Weasley.

We will continuously update the gallery when more and more pictures appear during the day. You can see pictures from the Harry Potter Studio Tour here!
