April 9th, 2012, 7:37PM– Last month, we were able to attend not only the World Premiere for Rupert Grint‘s film Into the White, but were also present at the Press Conference and Photocall the following day.

In addition to these events, we were also given the opportunity to sit down with Rupert Grint for an exclusive interview that we can finally share with you.
We talked to Rupert about his thoughts on the film, his accent and haircut as well as his singing talents.

It was quite a dramatic change. I didn’t know until the first day of filming that I was going to be curly. It just kind of happened. I had a little shaved off in the back, and that was scary, because I am quite funny about my hair. I always like having a fringe, but I mean, it kind of suited the character.

Actually, when we were filming, me and Lachlan and Stig and some of the others – we formed a band.

Finally, we challenged Rupert to a quick photo-interview: five questions, and only a picture to give an answer. Judge for yourself if Rupert can keep his title of “King of Facial Expressions”.

You can read the full interview here, and if you want to know which question caused the pic above take a look on our photo-interview here.

We have also uploaded both the pictures from the interview to our Gallery, as well as the pictures from the Red Carpet at the Collosseum cinema in Oslo.

March 9th, 2012, 7:54AM– Following this weeks promotion, Rupert Grint‘s film Into the White is on general release in Norway today!

We have added new translations of articles added to our Press Site with interviews with Rupert, director Petter Næss and his co-stars Lachlan Nieboer and Stig Henrik Hoff as well as stories about his appearance in Bergen.

“He’s an amazing guy! First of all, he’s a great actor, so bloody prepared. And he knows how to film. Moreover, he’s talented, funny and has a great energy. He was fucking great, just a pleasure to act opposite”, Stig Henrik Hoff (47) says

ZentropaNorway have uploaded a video of their interview with Rupert to youtube:

And finally, we also have the first reviews up, and they are full of praise for Mr. Grint and his co-stars. You can find the Rupert-related parts in our Reviews section, which also holds links to the complete original reviews in Norwegian, as well as the full translations in our Press Archive. Click here!

“All the characters are carefully nuanced and played with warmth and depth by the talented actors. Rupert Grint stands out with his rebellious and cheeky Liverpool gunner, together with our own Stig Henrik Hoff as the little talkative German, Strunk. The relationship between the two is perhaps the best thing about the entire film.”
