•Bonnie Mentioned in EW! Posted on 15 Aug 2008 by Noelle
Thanks so much to Holly for letting us know Bonnie was mentioned in this month's issue of Entertainment Weekly! Here's what it said:
quote:
The opening sequence finds Harry flirting with a waitress, and at Hogwarts he becomes easily smitten with Ginny (Bonnie Wright). He says he played the scenes by important lessons from "The Daniel Radcliffe school of flirting."Which means?"Look at them until they notice you and hope for the best."
I don't know about all this waitress stuff, but we know he'll be smitten, so it's all good!

•New HBP Ginny Picture Posted on 15 Aug 2008 by Sarah
A new picture from Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince has surfaced online. Thanks so much to Snitch Seeker, you can view the image below. (as soon as the galleries are back online we'll upload it there).
For those of you who are interested, this picture is apparently from a Slug Club meeting at Hogwarts, I think.
According to our Order Partner, The Leaky Cauldron, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince has been pushed back until July 17th, 2009
The reasons given for the move were that summer releases were better for family events, and they are still feeling the aftereffects from the writer's strike and want to make sure the film reaches the largest possible audience. Apparently the writer's strike impacted the readiness of scripts for several movies and therefore altering the releases for 2009, so the WB has decided to place HBP in the summer to fill in the gap for a major release. You can check out more details at Leaky.

•New-Old OOTP Ginny Promo Posted on 11 Aug 2008 by Tayna
Thanks to Oclumencia, we now have a new-old Ginny promotional image from OOTP. Hopefully we'll be able to get it in a larger size later. Thanks to Kristi for the tip.
Thanks so much to our elite affiliates, UHP via our awesome visitor Kristi for letting us know about a new Half Blood Prince article. The article mentions Harry & Ginny's relationship and include's a new quote from director David Yates. A translation can be read below:
quote:
"Love is equally one of the main themes of the film. Harry becomes more and more attracted to Ginny, but he can't express these feelings because he's scared of Ron's retaliations, because he's very protective over his sister. Equally under Harry's charm, Ginny doesn't know how to show him that she loves him. "Ginny is in a time of exploration," explains David Yates. "She becomes aware of her power of seduction and begins to flirt with boys. But its Harry that she REALLY wants"
•New Image Of Ginny! Posted on 03 Aug 2008 by Jackie

•Dan Talks About Kissing Scene. Posted on 02 Aug 2008 by Jackie
Thanks so much to visitor Anon for translating a french interview that was published by Allocine.com. In the interview Daniel Radcliffe, (Harry Potter), is asked about this kissing scene between him and Bonnie.
quote:
Q: And the kiss scene with Ginny? A: It was strange. When Katie Leung arrived on set during Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, it was to play Cho, who was Harry's first love. And we had known then that we'd have to kiss, so we weren't worried. On the other hand I've known Bonnie since she was 9! So it was very strange now that she's 17 years... But it all went well in the end!

quote:
Whirlwind of Talent: Bonnie Wright Born: February 17, 1991 She started off with a "Good luck" to Harry in the first Harry Potter film, but since then Ginny Weasley's portrayer, Bonnie Wright has become a star in her own right.

•“Oddly charged” moment between Harry and Ginny. Posted on 30 Jul 2008 by Jackie
Thanks so much to our Order Partner, The Leaky Cauldron via Holly we now have a teaser of Leaky's visit to the Half Blood Prince set.
quote:
The romance bug is making its rounds in this film, with Dan speaking of a script direction indicating an “oddly charged” moment between Harry and Ginny when they first see each other in the burrow. Jessie Cave, who plays Lavender Brown, meanwhile, threw herself, literally, into kissing Rupert as Ron. Grint said he was eating a lot of mints in preparation, while -
Over the course of the day, we the scene of the cave, Dumbledore’s office, the “higgledy-piggledy” (says Bonnie Wright) burrow, and a lot more. We watched Ron as he tremulously walked down the Great Hall right before his first game of Quidditch. We saw Luna’s Christmas tree dress; the tender moments between Harry and Ginny and the actors’ thoughts on them; Draco spending time in the Room of Requirement, sending birds through the Vanishing Cabinet as practice; Lavender nearly chipping a tooth as she kissed Ron; the huge, hairy Fenrir and the dried-out, twisted mutation on zombies that will end up as the Inferi.

There will be a SHORT, 15 second trailer for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince prior to The Dark Knight.
