Ciaran Hinds talks about his time on Hallows Part 2
Actor Ciaran Hinds, who will be playing Aberforth Dumbledore in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, recently did an interview with the Daily Record in which he first spoke about working with Dan, Rupert and Emma:
"It was surreal to be in a room with those three kids, all of whom know exactly what they're doing. And then there's you, who has been around for a long time, and they're the ones putting you at ease and making sure you know what you're doing on set.
"It was bizarre. But it was also really interesting to see things from that perspective. With every job, you're typically looking for the director to make sure you're doing the right thing but with Emma, Rupert and Daniel, that has become part of their psyche.
"They've been doing that job so long, they have such ease and an instant connection with it, and a real truthfulness."
And he then spoke briefly about his part in the film:
"My scene was a four-page exposition scene about Albus Dumbledore's childhood and how he's not all he said he was. It's that hole in the film that needs to be filled."
The Warner Bros. Studio Tour : The Making of Harry Potter studio tour is opening in March in London and we just learned from hypable.com that Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy, will be the voice of the digital guide you can purchase on the tour!
The Studio Tour’s official website describes the digital guide as this:
Our handheld audio-visual guides bring the Studio Tour to life in a completely new way. It contains fascinating facts about the sets, costumes and props, as well as newly produced interviews with filmmakers and never before seen behind-the-scenes footage. It is available in eight languages and can be pre-booked with your tickets. This is available to hire for just 4.95 pounds.
Currently we are unsure if Felton is the only actor on the Digital Guide or if others will join him.
