March 1 is always seen as a special day in Wales, traditionally celebrating the life of the country’s patron saint, St David. However, this year the first weekend of March was particularly busy since MuggleNet had the privilege of attending Cardiff Film and Comic Con.
We here at MuggleNet are thrilled to bring you an exclusive interview with Bonnie Wright herself, talking about her new film “After the Dark.”
What a night it was indeed for two members of the Harry Potter family on Sunday at the London Critics’ Circle Film Awards. The Mirror reported that Gary Oldman (Sirius Black) award was presented by none other than John Hurt (Mr. Ollivander). Meanwhile Alfonso Cuarón was able to to add to his already long list of accolades for Gravity.
The first trailer for the upcoming CGI family adventure, based on the popular children’s animated program, is now online. The film contains the voices of several Harry Potter cast members, including Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley), Jim Broadbent (Professor Slughorn), and David Tennant (Barty Crouch, Jr.).

After the global phenomenon of the “Harry Potter” series, Daniel Radcliffe has recently starred in a few considerably smaller, though no less exciting, features. Moviefone reports that his next role will be of a similar size; he is set to star in the biopic “Brooklyn Bridge.”
“Kill Your Darlings,” which stars Daniel Radcliffe, has been nominated for a GLAAD Media Award in the Outstanding Film – Wide Release category. The film is up against other big features of the last year: “Dallas Buyers Club,” “The Mortal Instruments,” “Philomena,” and “Blue is the Warmest Colour.”
“Prisoner of Azkaban” director Alfonso Cuarón’s winning streak has continued this award season with the top prize given by the Directors Guild of America (DGA) for his sci-fi feature, “Gravity.” The award was presented to him by last year’s winner, Ben Affleck.
Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom) has confirmed that his brother Anthony, also an actor, is all set to open a new drama school in their hometown of Leeds. Totally Lit North will follow the success of the Totally Lit College based in London and will open in February.
That’s right, folks. Dan Radcliffe will be returning to Broadway in April to once again play “Cripple” Billy Claven in The Cripple of Inishmaan. The Martin McDonagh play hit the West End, London last year and earned rave reviews, especially for Radcliffe’s performance.
