Evanna Has CUTE Shoes in That Picture!

Potter actors Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood) and Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom) released 1,000 balloons on Millennium Bridge in London today to celebrate the upcoming Half-Blood Prince DVD release and to kick off a new contest.

The contest, open to anyone 18 or older in the UK, is simple: find one of the black balloons Evanna and Matthew launched today and follow the instructions on the attached card. You'll then be entered into a contest where the winner will receive a trip to the Deathly Hallows set where they'll be turned into a painting!

This is London has video from the balloon launch, which also includes a nice interview with the two actors. They note that Deathly Hallows is going to be "insane" and Evanna reveals that the producers are keeping it true to the book and paying a lot of attention to the final battle.

Lupin's Wifey Talks About Her Hubby

David Thewlis' wife was recently interviewed by The Independent, where she reveals that her hubby will be filming Deathly Hallows through March 2010. DOes anyone actually say hubby? It's such a weird word...

Thewlis is filming the final instalments of Harry Potter until March and Friel [Thewlis] is choosing between scripts which could take her to New Zealand or back to LA in the new year.

Filming is expected to be entirely completed in Spring 2010, and Part 1 will be released on November 19th, 2010.

Yep a fixed date!

Evanna Speaks!

Evanna Lynch recently spoke to EvannaLynchFans.com about perseverance. Is there a song about perseverance? They should right one... Anyway read about it below!

I'm sure many of you have or have had the same dream and have encountered all the apparent obstacles. People like to hype it up and make is sound impossible, unattainable, too good for you... Just the other day I was trying to clean out my desk (anything other than study exactly!) and I came across the letter that I received from the HP casting dept. It was a reply to a tape I sent long before the open audition, long before the release of Goblet of Fire even, on my own initiative. They did reply and kindly told me that there were no openings on the film at the minute and that also nationality played a big role in casting. Plainly put, it looked like the cards were against me and I'm sure I felt that way at the time.

I'm not saying this to big myself up ('cause I know they use this on press releases etc. etc.), I mean to remind you how fine the line is between reaching a goal and not. I wasn't an actress with connections or anything particularly distinguishing. This is why I hate the probability chapter in my maths book. Manifestation doesn't take into account how many chances you have. If it happens it happens and it didn't matter what anyone else told you. Sorry to annoy any mathematicians out there but I don't believe in probability! So strip away all the hype, because anything anyone tells you is just...chat, and it's really up to you and you'll get nowhere if you don't at least believe you deserve everything you dream about.

Harry Potter Keeps Giving Back

Daniel Radcliffe has pledged his support to a national helpline. The charity is called Get Connected and is a helpline for young people age 25 and under who have a problm but do not know where to find help. Dan had this to say about the charity , "I am delighted to pledge my suuport for Get Connected, and mark its 10th anniversary by becoming its first 'best freind'. We live in a world that is so full of choice and information; it is often impossible to know where to turn or what to do. Get Connected is there for young people in need of help no matter what the issue, from eating disorders to abuse, homelessness to pregnancy. I see Get Connected as much more than just a gateway for imformation; it is a friend to thousands of young people across the UK." So way to give back to the community Dan!
