From the set of his new movie Cherry Bomb, actor Rupert Grint (Ronald Weasley in the Harry Potter movies) discusses
the recently released teaser trailer and the fact that "it's ... just to get people excited."
According to the article:
Ron Weasley nearly dies after he drinks Professor Slughorn's poisoned mead, a gift the professor was meant to pass on to Dumbledore, in an assasination attempt gone horribly wrong. Ron had already been poisoned in one sense — "He gets poisoned quite a bit in this film," Grint laughed — because he ate Romilda Vane’s chocolate cauldrons (also meant for someone else, this time Harry) which were spiked with love potion. Harry rushes his friend off to the potions professor for a quick fix, only Ron goes from a bad predicament to a lethal one in mere moments. "That was a really fun scene," Grint said.

Great! It sounds like they're actually keeping some of the funny scenes from the book in this one instead of just going ahead and replacing them with their own scenes.

It's good Rupert was, and seems to always be, excited to film and do all of these awesome scenes. Good luck to him on his other film. I can't wait to see HBP!

Why is his face scarred like that?
Have I missed something?
Ha! I love Rupert Grint he's so funny! He does Ron's role really well.
I hope he calls out Hermione's name in the movie when he's sick, that'll be good :D

I am so glad that they've kept this scene! The poisonede mead scene was one of those that I was worried would be chopped. I cannot wait - but why is that photo up there of Rupert showing him all bloodied?

Poor Ron. He gets poisoned while everyone else is having a birthday at the moment.

I haven't read the article but what up with all the blood on his face??? And it looks like he's not wearing a shirt and I'm thinking he's standing near a pool or something. What's all this?
Confused...?
PS LOVING how after the teaser all kinds of WONDERFUL stuff is just POURING out onto the site. :D :D :D (that's thrice happy if anyone was confused)

What's up with his face? The poison wouldn't make his face get all bloody, would it? I'm trying to think of another scene where he'd maybe get bloodied...the battle at Hogwarts where Dumbledore dies, I guess?
Anyway, I can't wait to see that scene he talks about! I loved it in the book (except of course for the poison part).

Rupert looks like a cross between the Joker and Two-Face from The Dark Knight in that picture!

I'm going to have to check out this new movie on IMDB and find out when it will be released.
I'm sure Rupert did an excellent job with the love potion scene, and what followed it.
Blessings! Hecate3fold!

For those who are asking about the bloody pic, it's from his new movie.
I just finished reading a description of the scene that that pic comes from...
I'm looking forward to HP now. And I'm ALWAYS looking forward to seeing Ron and to anything Rupert is doing.
The trailer was the BEST!!!

Im glad that scene has made it on screen, it's one of the best. It's good to see more Ron in this upcoming film too, which means more Ron humour! XD

I really can't wait to see how this is portrayed. To be honest, I am quite surprised that they are including both Romilda Vane's chocolates and the poisoned wine- the wine, yes, but I am glad that they are going into enough detail to include the chocolates. I hope HBP will be more detailed than the others. That is the only real flaw of the movies, in my opinion.

He is right, the trailer really got me excited. I watched it quite a few times. I wonder when they're going to release one with a little more Hermione and Ron.
