Rupert's HP audition tape to be released with Socerer's Stone Collector's Edition!
For those of you who have been dying to see Rupert's Harry Potter Newsround Audition tape: fear not, you'll soon be able to get your hands on it!
In an exclusive chat with SnitchSeeker at the LA Times's Q & A with Potter producer David Heyman, which took place last evening in Los Angeles, he revealed that Rupert's tape is set to be released in the DVD Collector's Edition of Sorcerer's Stone!

Also, David recalled Rupert's reaction to the very first Potter press conference (which took place almost nine years ago!), SnitchSeeker describes:

...David vividly recalled how scared and nervous Dan was during the press conference, while Rupert was chatty and far more confident. He praised Rupert for his uniqueness and eccentric ways (pointing out his odd choice of purchases, including the ice cream van and hovercraft), and that he has remained unchanged, and very funny and sweet from the beginning until now.

It's your nightly round-up of press junket videos!

Also, the lovely Emma has found a review of Half-Blood Prince from the Baltimore Sun which gives praise to Rupert's performance:

"Best of all, who would have thought Grint would become a comic of Shakespearean proportions? He brings off sequences of unlikely athletic success and amorous silliness that are as delightful and pure as any silent clown's."

Rupert Grint talks Fans and Spongebob on BBC Radio 2

Thanks to the lovely Dee, we've learned that Rupert Grint, Daniel Radcliffe, and Jessie Cave were recently guests on Claudia Winkleman's Arts Show on BBC Radio 2!
Rupert talked to Claudia's sidekick Colin about the relationships between Ron and Lavender as well as how some "Lavender" characteristics tend to appear in enthusiastic fans!

There's also some talk about the gifts fans like to give him:
"Mainly pyjamas, weirdly. Also, Spongebob Squarepants is quite familiar as well. I think I said years ago I liked the show and I just get merchandise in every shape and form of Spongebob."

When asked what other "requests" for gifts he may have, Rupert replied "I'm quite happy with Spongebob, really."

Hopefully, Rupert was not too fatigued by the Spongebob golf ball we gave him at the 2007 Order of the Phoenix premiere!

RGN at the New York Premiere of Half-Blood Prince
At last, we're pleased to bring everyone our footage and images from the New York premiere of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. As you well know, we were placed on the red carpet hoping to get a quick word with Rupert. Unfortunately, it was a little quicker than we expected! What we were able to get, however, was a greeting from Rupert to all his fans!

Additionally, we have several photos of Rupert from the red carpet, and even after the screening where he was once again gracious enough to sign autographs for the waiting fans. Here
