New Leung interview and OOTP set report
New Leung interview and OOTP set report Scotland on Sunday has posted a new interview with Cho Chang actress Katie Leung where she discusses how playing the role has changed her, what she'd like to do post-Harry Potter, and the infamous kiss with Daniel: "[It was] not a particularly sexy or exciting kiss - it's very sweet and very clumsy, like all first kisses are. Especially since in reality, Daniel and I were a bit nervous and got a little giggly having to do it again and again."

The paper also has a report from the film's set, featuring interviews with some of the stars.

Posted by xhproxx Jul 1st 2007

Posted by Kreacher_FTW Jul 1st 2007

Can everyone please treat Katie like a human being on this set of comments at least? The last batch of comments on katie was an insult to mugglenet and harry potter fans everywhere. Don't hate.


Posted by Mrsroonil_wazlib Jul 1st 2007

well, katie leung is ok we haven't even really seen her act in the movies so i can't really judge her, i just don't like cho. NOT because harry and her kiss and everything (in my opinion Daniel is very not-cute) she's just so whiny in the books i hope she's not like that in the movie


Posted by Ameeface Jul 1st 2007

Kreacher_FTW: Dude, nobody has said anything horrible on these comments yet. I like Katie, not only is she gorgeous she's sweet and while we haven't seen her act much I think she'll be good. Just chill.


Posted by rggr9728 Jul 1st 2007

i am so excited to see the movie! it sound like one of the best ones yet.


Posted by HPFANTimothy Jul 1st 2007

NOTE TO ALL FANGIRLS (DAN FANGIRLS): In your comments, PLEASE do not bagg Katie! The kiss with Dan was acting, it's not real, and it was in the script. So don't get jealous (like you did last time she was interviewed) and go 'I hate her, she's such a loner.' It's seriously not the place for that...


Posted by DRx3HP Jul 1st 2007

As much as I love Dan, I totally agree with HPFANTimothy. Can't wait till the movie :D


Posted by chommy Jul 1st 2007

There's 11 days left for me since I'm in Canada. =( We're right above the US but NOOO! We don't get an earlier date, too. I'm watching the movie on the day it comes out! And since I'm smaller then my brothers/dad, I can run past people when the doors open and get good seats like I did for Goblet of Fire. =D


Posted by crazyy Jul 1st 2007

great interviews, cant wait!


Posted by Natalie87 Jul 1st 2007

I DON'T WANT THEM TO GROW UP....They are still ten year-olds for me.. When I read that they are (or about to be) 18 I go nuts!!!!In my mind they are always as they were in the 1st film!!!(still...can't wait!!!)


Posted by ashurlito Jul 1st 2007

THIS IS IMPORTANT!! nearly headless nick plays a big role in the 7th book because i uncovered the mystery potion and then jo told me shew drew this and it's important!


Posted by Wentzel Jul 1st 2007

chommy: HAHA, sweet ;-D Run, chommy, run!


Posted by Wentzel Jul 1st 2007

I hate this girl's guts! She got to kiss Sir Hotness.....ON THE LIPS!! That's my dream. She has no right to steal my husband! GRRRRR I HATE KATIE LEUNG....thank god she said her kiss wasn't sexy. The sexy kiss with Dan is for me to experience!!!!!

ahh i cant wait!! im going to the midnight show on the 11th! (technically the 10th at night) but wow im am so excited! ahh got my tickets and everything! what about the rest of u?


Posted by DanielRadcliffeIsSEXY Jul 1st 2007

I got a free ticket in the OOTP DS game, so I don't need to worry about tickets! The game is good, and the game comes with a free ticket!!!


Posted by deathly101 Jul 1st 2007

i keep on looking at my tickets! lol!the ticket guy who was giving me n my sister the tickets got so exited when we were asking him about how big the screen is and how long the line-up is! he looked like a harry potter fan to me! he told me that at the midnight show there will be ppl dressed up as witches n wizards!!!!!!!!! that'd be sooooooooo kooooooooool!!!!!!!!! i can't wait!!!


Posted by dark_nymph Jul 1st 2007

All of these interviews and previews are making me so excited for the movie!! Katie Leung seems like a very nice girl. I don't think there is any reason to be jealous or hateful towards her. Why not try being happy for someone when things are going well for them? Anyway, cant wait till the 12th=D


Posted by Stupefy Jul 1st 2007

Thank God it's a clumsy kiss... lol.. if it looked like an experienced kiss i would probably have to punch someone... haha. I got my tickets for 11:59 pm on July 10th!!!! SOOO EXCITED!!


Posted by DanielRadcliffeIsSEXY Jul 1st 2007

Gryffindor_Rawr: I agree! I'd love to kiss Dan 30 times! Oh, great, that triggered my hallucination......Hi, Dan. Let's make out. Oh...ohh.....oh.....yeah. ....yeah....ooh.......yes !.....yes! yes!!!!!.....OH YEAh!!!!!!!........ahhh.. ......*hallucination stops abruptly* darn it! I was just gonna ask him to marry me! Anyway, last night I saw David Copperfield (the magician) in Las Vegas! (I'm in Las Vegas right now! It rocks!)


Posted by Kreacher_FTW Jul 1st 2007

Ameeface: I spoke of the last batch of comments for the last Katie Leung interview. The comments before mine were kind, i don't deny that. I was merely asking for the comments on this story to be nicer than the previous interviews comments. In those comments people called Katie a Scottish Paris Hilton and many other deplorable things, so I just want a more honorable reaction here. If you dont believe me find that article and read the comments. They were very mean and a true Harry Potter fan should be ashamed that any other HP fan would be that nasty.


Posted by ginnypotter719 Jul 1st 2007

that kiss is nasty enough to make someone vomit slugs...why would u want to read, or listen to first hand account of it?


Posted by MrsRoXtarPotter Jul 1st 2007

HPFANTimothy, you got the right idea!!! you go man!! .......... ok I rlly wanna read this interview!! lol, 9 FRIKIN DAYS PEOPLE!!!! and GinnyPotter719, is that also your fanfiction name??


Posted by SomebodyElse Jul 1st 2007

Gosh, I love interviews. I like hearing the actors' and actresses' take on HP, although they agonize me . . . one and a half weeks until OotP, and THREE ENTIRE WEEKS until DH. Btw, whoever wrote that article--dementors suck hope, joy, and souls, not life-force.


Posted by Crystal4455 Jul 1st 2007

OMG this is so kewl Katie. I bet you giggled the most. Do u like daniel? I do! He is soooooooooooooo kewl and i love his part in the movies like his character Harry ROX!


Posted by andrewshomette Jul 1st 2007

you know...when i read the book, it said that she was supposed to be pretty. no offense to katie, but she doesnt look "pretty" to me.


Posted by MrsRoXtarPotter Jul 1st 2007

ya andrewshomette, i'm glad someone agrees with me! I mean she looked gorgeous at the Yule Ball, but other than that she's not "pretty" she's not ugly, she's very cute, but she not "pretty" like Cho should be.


Posted by andrewshomette Jul 1st 2007

yeah. i feel exactly the same haha.


Posted by LeilaD Jul 1st 2007

I AM SOOOOOOOOO JEALOUS!!!!! :( The movie will not even get realeased in Iran:((( What the hell am I supposed to doooooo!!!!! and what about the book??? It will not get published over here!! I have to w8 until the 3rd of Aug. for it to reach me!!! I will actually KILL any1 who spoils the ending!!!!!! And no, I'm not kidding!!!


Posted by rob15 Jul 1st 2007

MRSROXTARPOTTER: if i had as much money as DAN i would buy Emma some implants from the grocery store, Rupert some black hair from the corner market and Dumbledore some life from the asain market...


Posted by MimbleWimble Jul 1st 2007

The kissing scene is one scene I could do without. perhaps because dan radcliffe disgusts me a bit.. I don't know why, but that's the way it is:-p


Posted by hpgal5 Jul 1st 2007

ahhh! is anyone else feeling like extremely excited becuz in lyk only 9 days.... the movie is out and then 3 weeks is !!!!!!! Deathly Hallows. we've been waiting for the last book for sooooo long and it is days away from us! woot~


Posted by LeilaD Jul 1st 2007

Posted by rob15 Jul 1st 2007

HPGAL: u sound like a crazy owl when you say "WOOT" and yes i am excited for more cheesecakes


Posted by ginerva_weasley Jul 1st 2007

Remember Cedric. Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort. Remember Cedric Diggory.
