Rupert Grint’s Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows Halloween Special!

October 30th, 7:08AM — Firstly, Happy Halloween , Friends! :-)

With less than 20 days left until Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I  to hit theaters worldwide, several TV spots for the movie are being shown now. Another new TV Spot has just hit the TV screens where you see many new scenes of Rupert Grint as Ron Weasley along with his co-stars Daniel Radcliffe(Harry Potter) and Emma Watson(Hermione Granger).

Now, I do believe this as a Halloween treat to us fans, because it features not only the famous Ron/Hermione Hug after the 7 Potters scene  but also what we believe is a relieved Harry practically pouncing upon Ron to hug him. Other scenes showing the Trio at Grimmauld place along with our beloved Dobby and the reformed Kreacher, some new ministry scenes and some new wedding bits as well.

You can view this TV spot HERE. Thanks to robm1007 for the video. 

It is not a clear version but we will update the post once we get one along with screencaps as soon as we can.

In other news, Wild Target starring Rupert Grint, Bill Nighy and Emily Blunt has released in select locations in the US.  The director of Wild Target, Jonathan Lynn, will be part of an exclusive Q&A Session on this Saturday evening(30th Oct) at the ArcLight cinemas in its Hollywood branch. The Q&A session will be after the 7.30 pm screening of the film for which you can pre-book your tickets here. Thanks Ellie for the Tip! :-)

Jonathan Lynn Praises Rupert Grint – Rupert Talks Future!

» October 27 by Tao in Rupert News, WT News with 6 Comments

October 27th, 2010, 8:50pm–While you’re busy looking at the new photo we just posted, promotion for Wild Target continues with a new interview with the Los Angeles Times where Rupert Grint talks about his future after Harry Potter and if he really likes comedy.

On his future:

“I am quite enjoying not doing anything,” said the laid-back 22-year-old, calling from his home outside London for a recent interview. “It’s been nice.”

On comedy:

Although as Ron Weasley he has had moments of humorous screen time before, Grint admitted that comedy didn’t come naturally to him as an actor. “I find it quite difficult, I think, [compared] to other kinds of types of acting,” he confessed.

Of course we fans know that Rupert is an amazing comedic actor with such great comedic timing. It’s hard to imagine that Rupert doesn’t see it himself, but that’s what we love! The ever humble Rupert!

Jonathan Lynn also praises Rupert:

But Lynn said that Grint’s abilities served him well on set, working with the rest of the cast. “I think he has a real knack for comedy, but I do think he finds it difficult,” Lynn said. “He think he finds the absolute precision of it difficult…. The reason he does seem to have a knack for it is that he’s a natural, and he has this wonderful personae that works so well on the screen. He was the easiest and nicest person to have around, and he was determined to do whatever I asked.”

We may have to have a little talk with The LA Times, as they seem to not know about Rupert’s cameo in Come Fly With Me and being attached to Eddie The Eagle.

And of course, as always, if you haven’t done so, you can still pre-order your Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part I tickets through us via Fandango by clicking on the banner on the left hand side!
