CBBC Newsround has two new interviews with Chris Rankin
(Percy Weasley) and Devon Murray
(Seamus Finnegan) from the Harry Potter movies in which they both discuss the release of the movie, attending the UK premiere and their favorite scenes.
According to Chris his favorite scene is:
When people used to ask me that question I always used to say the scene on the stair case when the Fat Lady's portrait is slashed open by Sirius Black. I really did enjoy doing that one.
But I was watching it online the other day, and there's 10 minutes of behind-the-scenes footage on the internet and I saw a scene I'd forgotten I had filmed!
It's where Sirius Black comes into the Gryffindor dormitory and wakes up Ron in bed and he's screaming. It was quite fun as I was lying there looked annoyed. We spent all day filming in our pyjamas, it was fun. It was a slightly different scene, a bit more wacky, more comedy.
Devon’s favorite scene description:
We're all in the boys' dorm room at the beginning of the film. It's the first night at Hogwarts and you get to see Harry Potter having some fun. We're all throwing sweets around and every time we eat one we turn into different animals.
On another note, for the second time Chris Rankin will be participating in a web chat
for BBC Norfolk on Thursday, June 10 at 7-8 p.m. (UK), which means it’s 3 p.m. (EST) and you can also watch Chris on their web cam
during the chat.

Chris seems like a really cool guy!! Plus he's around my age, which is always cool to have someone in HP around 21 since no one really is!!
I couldn't imagine watching myself in a movie and not remember filming that, it would be so weird!

Cool interviews.
Dolores J Umbridge-Snape- I think Percy hears Ron screaming and comes in, but I can't remember.
When are they turning into different animals? I don't remember that in the book. Canary Creams don't come in until GoF...

Yeah, I don't remember them changing into animals either Morgana, but I think it will be a neat touch!
I can't wait to see all the CGI on the big screen. I hope it looks awesome!

Cool. I'm trying to keep away from any interviews or the sort until the movie comes out... or, rather, until I see it.

Great interview. I can't wait to see the scene where the boys turn into animals. Maybe it is a hint as to what Animagi they're going to be in the future.

I liked hearing from Chris and Devon - many people do not give the other actors enough credit!
These interviews are very cool. I wonder where Chris went on the internet to see these other scenes... anyone out there know? Or maybe it was a secured sigth for WB. Who knows. It would be interesting to see that scene!

Great article, I can't wait to see the scene that Chris is talking about. I'm sure they've filmed it just as I would have imagined it from reading the book.
