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."

A Life in Pictures:Ralph Fiennes at BAFTA

Continuing with the Q&A of other celebrated actors, Francine Stock interviewed Ralph Fiennes at A Life in Pictures. On Sunday, December 11th Fiennes sat down with Stock and recalled his entire life’s work of movies. He tells of how he was informed in his childhood while reciting Shakespeare that he “has the ability”. And years later he has had a plethora of different roles. One such role was of Amon Goth from Schnidler’s List. When a chilling scene involving his maid appears on the scene, he lightens the mood with telling how he was so excited to get Steven Spielberg to engage with him in his audition.

Inevitably, Stock brings up Fiennes’ long-running role of Voldemort of Harry Potter fame, and Fiennes – to everyone’s surprise – performs the “Avada Kedavra” jokingly on the host. After being uninvolved with the Harry Potter franchise, his sister Martha was the one who told him to take his role seriously.

With his directorial debut in Coriolanus opening in early 2012, Fiennes revealed his curiosity in directing for almost four years. Fiennes wanted something that was not only a challenge to direct but one that would be relevant to audiences. He decided as he is finally approaching 50 that he only has one life to live. The official UK trailer is below with Coriolanus opening in the UK on January 20th.
