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.

It is sooo refreshing to hear from Rupert. I love when we get some movie insight from him, which isn't all that often. I can't wait to see his Ron portrayal in HBP!
Weasley is our king!

Hehe, i can't wait to see this!
I bet it was fun (like Rupert already said)... who wouldn't find it fun to make a scene like that.
I know i once had to fake a seizure in my First Aid class. It was great...

Cherry Bomb? New Film? What's it about? I'm honestly more interested in this new movie! I'm afraid to say I'm becoming less and less of a Harry Potter movie fan v_v they just aren't what they used to be, and by that I mean to say the first two were the best two.

Rupert seems to have an eerie sense of humor if he can go from "a bad predicament to a lethal one" and say it's "a really funny scene". I imagine the love potion part was funny.
As always, I can't wait to see the flick! So far it looks really good...
