Rupert Grint: School’s in Session!

» December 13 by Majbritt in HP News, Rupert News with 4 Comments

December 13th, 2011, 5:22PM– Tuesday morning turned out to be quite a day for all the pupils at a school in Sutton Coldfield, UK. They got a surprise visit from none other than two of the Harry Potter series’ Weasley boys, Rupert Grint and Oliver Phelps.

The reason behind this visit was the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 online competition from Warner Bros and Sainsbury where a lucky winner could get a surprise appearance by Rupert Grint in school. The lucky winner was the 17 year old Sarah Cotter – and not only did all the pupils at Bishop Walsh School get this extraordinary day at school with Rupert Grint and the surprise guest Oliver Phelps – the entire school also received a copy of the Deathly Hallows Part 2. The two participated in a panel chat and signed copies of the last Harry Potter film.

What a day, huh? :-)

You can see a short interview with Rupert and Oliver from BBC here. Also, you can see a lot of cool pictures from the event in our Gallery here. Enjoy! :-)

November 12th, 2011, 9:40pm–As you all know, Rupert Grint along with many of his Harry Potter co-stars including, but not limited to, Evanna Lynch, James Phelps, Oliver Phelps and Mark Williams, are at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, Florida to promote the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 which is out now in the US on blu-ray and DVD. This weekend had an array of events including a red carpet tonight to celebrate the final film’s DVD release. You can view pictures of the even in our gallery here. Hopefully more pictures to come! Stay tuned!

And yes, Rupert has expressed interest in getting a Twitter account, but I’d advise everyone to not follow anyone until it’s confirmed. There are sadly a lot of people who think it’s funny to string fans along like that.

UPDATE: Several updates for you. First a video interview from E! that was suppose to be posted last night but apparently something messed up. Apologies! Secondly we have HQ pictures now from the even which can be viewed here. And lastly a picture from the Q&A event here.

October 28th, 2011, 5:217pm–With Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 about to be released around the world on DVD and Blu-Ray, the Harry Potter quest website has started to release videos that appear on the DVD and/or blu-ray. The first one is Rupert Grint, Julie Walters, Mark Williams, James and Oliver Phelps and Bonnie Wright discussing The Weasleys. We also get many behind-the-scenes of various films with Rupert in them. Between the BTS and the loveliness of the Weasley family, this video is quite a treat! You can view the video here.

We also have two new pictures. The first one is actually from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 which you can view here. The second one is from the DH2 epilogue and features Rupert and Emma Watson as Ron and Hermione looking lovingly at each other with their two children. You can view that here.

Thanks to Katerine for the tip!

Rupert Grint: Interview with The Sun

» July 9 by Tania in HP News, Rupert News with 4 Comments

July 9th, 2011, 12:45pm– With only few more days until Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 comes to cinemas, Rupert Grint is doing the rounds of promotion.

UK’s newspaper, The Sun conducted an interview with Rupert. In the interview, Rupert talks about him buying a cheap car for the Wacky Rally which he did with James and Oliver Phelps. Rupert also opens up about the close bond he has with his family, growing up in the spotlight and being recognised by fans and strangers. Of course, Rupert was also asked about the highly anticipated kiss with co-star Emma Watson.

Here’s an extract from the interview:
“It’s because we film in Watford, which isn’t the most glamorous of spots. If we had filmed in America or something it could have been disastrous. I never felt any pressure. It was just fun really.” The constant and intense attention of fans makes this level-headed approach even more remarkable.

Just click here for the full interview.
