RupertGrint.Net at the North American Premiere!

RGN: We just wanted to ask, with all of these fans here, is it a bit weird? Do you kind of feel like a heartthrob?

Rupert: Yeah, it’s gotten.. this one has been really, really great. I mean, it’s the biggest one ever. I got out of the car, I was shaking a bit. It’s been really fun, yeah. I’ve really enjoyed it.

RGN: Then tomorrow, you guys are going to be immortalized here!

Rupert: I know, yeah!

RGN: And how are you feeling about that?

Rupert: Absolutely.. it’s going to be amazing. I can’t really believe it. I only found out about it a few days ago, so it’s going to be a bit crazy but I’ll enjoy it.

RGN: What’s your reaction to the flashbacks in the film? Weird?

Rupert: Yeah, no, yeah! It’s really weird! Yeah, like, whenever we see stuff from the first ones it’s quite strange. So I was like eleven when I started, so it was a long time ago, but it doesn’t really feel like too long. So it’s quite strange.

RGN: And what was your favorite scene in this film?

Rupert: This film? Umm.. I don’t know. This one is really cool because Ron gets to do a bit of the tougher stuff. So, he’s not much of wimp in this one. And, uh, we had this choreography with the wand moves. So yeah, that was quite cool.

Spellcast: Rupert, I would like to know, on behalf of SpellCast, where you would like to see Ron go in the books?

Rupert: I’m not sure, really. Obviously, he’s got a lot of things he’s got to find and stuff like that. Obviously..

SpellCast: Do you think he’ll live?

Rupert: Yeah, I think he’ll survive because there’s that thing with him and Hermione. So, I think he’s going to have to live so that can go on.

Spellcast: Do you think he’ll be upfront and in the battle?

Rupert: Yeah, I think that will be what you see.

SpellCast: Okay, Rupert!

RGN: Thank you!

Rupert: Cheers, yeah!

Also an article from the USA Today about the premiere here

Emma Watson, who plays Hermione, said the film is about "something every teenager goes through. Whether it's with parents or teachers, they learn to trust themselves and their own instincts rather than always relying on someone else telling them what to do."

[Sandrinha]

because there’s that thing with him and Hermione

Rupert it's called LOVE my boy .

Thanks for posting the interview, Regina! I wish it was longer but hey, I'll take whatever we can get.

Rupert, with both his co-stars Dan & Emma, will have their Hand, Foot and Wand Prints set in cement in a ceremony at Grauman's Chinese Theater this morning @ 10am (PST).

Also we missed an interview with Rupert from the Today Show
What's the one thing Rupert Grint has in common with his "Harry Potter" character, Ron Weasley? Does the star think Ron will survive the final chapter? And does Rupert think Snape is good or evil at heart?

Hey, Roberta! Very nice to see you!! But... um... I think you've found your way to the wrong board... the link you've provided is for Milo's 30th birthday bash celebration.

Great pics, Regina! Thanks for posting them!

Wasn't Rupert supposed to appear on the Today show only on the 13th?! Were we misinformed?

Anyway... thanks for posting the link!

Rupert is in Canada TODAY!!

At first, it was unsure if Rupert would be able to make it to the Order of the Phoenix screening at ScotiaBank Theater (Richmond Street) in Toronto today. However, Rupert will be showing up at the theatre around 11am, so if any Torontonians are planning to go down to catch a glimpse of him, you may be in luck!

There, he will speak to fans inside the showing very briefly before heading over to MTV Canada to be on MTV Live, taping starts at 2pm and the show will then air at 6pm!!

[~*bitterswt*~]

I just saw that on the news Darcy! Argh! If I wasn't working today, I'd have made my way down to the ScotiaBank Theater. This is Rupert's first time in Canada, right?

[darcybennett]

To my knowledge, yes, Kay. If I'm not mistaken, he's the first of any of the Potter cast to come to Canada. Lucky us, eh?! It's too bad you'll miss him in person though. But maybe you can catch him on MTV Live today at 6pm, if you have the network, that is! If not, I'm sure there'll be a clip available online soon.

[EphramIsHot]

Guys, I was at the Scotiabank Theatre today and saw Rupert and got some pics. They're over in the Rupert Grint Appreciation Thread if you guys wanna see 'em.

[baileycat]

I only now just found out that Rupert was in town! City TV interviewed him for the news. GAH I missed him. We knew he was coming but I had no idea it would be today!

[darcybennett]

Thanks for that, EphramIsHot! Your pictures turned out great... if it had been me, they probably would have come out all blurry and out of focus!

I'm sorry that you found out so late that Rupert was in Toronto yesterday I hope you'll have another opportunity to see him in the near future.

Rupert will be doing an inhouse signing in NY, at Fao Shrawz on Friday the 13th from 12pm-1pm to help open up their new HP shop. The shop is located on at 767 5th Ave (corner of 58th St).

Speaking of his promotional tour in Toronto... the clip of his apperance on MTV Live is now up on their site, you can watch it HERE, in the video box on the left.
Pictures from the show can be seen, HERE. Thanks must go to Brittany and Sara, RG.N readers, for these.

You can see pictures of him at some of the stops he made along the way, HERE.

Pictures of him at the movie screening are now online, you can check them out, HERE, courtesy of RG.N.

A couple of staff members from RG.N were lucky enough to interview him on the red carpet in Los Angeles, here's their brief encounter...


You may recall a few months ago we'd reported that Rupert, with Dan and Emma, would take part in Moviefone's Unscripted, well the trio taped their segment while in Los Angeles promoting Ootp.

The full clip is now available online...
