Both the Telegraph and the Gazette have posted new interviews with some of the Order of the Phoenix cast.
The Telegraph interview features Katie Leung, Bonnie Wright, Matthew Lewis, and Evanna Lynch. They each talk about their characters in the Order of the Phoenix movie and how their roles in the movies have affected their lives. Bonnie Wright explains why she decided to go for the role of Ginny Weasley: Why did you first go for the role?
My brother had read the books and told me that I reminded him of the character Ginny Weasley but I didn’t really know anything about it at that point. Then I heard that they were doing auditions and he told me I should go along. I never really realised at that point how big the films would become. I don’t think any of us did. The second interview, conducted by the Gazette, also contains a question-and-answer session with Bonnie Wright, Evanna Lynch, and Matthew Lewis. When asked about Neville's fate, Lewis answered:
"A lot of people have come up to me and said, 'You're going to die, mate.' Cheers! But I like to think he'll be there fighting to the end. If he does die, I'd like it to be really heroic, saving someone else's life."

The BBC has a new interview with Bonnie Wright, Matt Lewis, Katie Leung, and Evanna Lynch online now. When asked what his highlight of filming the fifth movie was, Matthew replied:
"I love comedy, I love making people laugh - but what I really loved this year was tackling the emotional side of Neville. That was a big challenge for me because Neville has always been a light-hearted, humorous character and I have never had to do anything as deep and emotional as that before."

There are two new interviews online this morning that each interview a Weasley sibling.
The first one is from The London Evening Standard with Bonnie Wright. Among other things, she talks about how to survive the Potter set after all these years:
'In a banqueting scene, you must never be filmed actually eating,' she says very seriously.
Otherwise you'll have to keep on for the sake of continuity. The food gets cold and stale, and you start to feel really sick.' (Especially if the director is David Yates, notorious for his numerous retakes.) You have to make sure the spoon only goes as far as your lips.'
Meanwhile, The Telegraph spoke to Rupert Grint. He dished on the big kiss with Emma and his dating life:
"I've never been seriously involved with anyone. I've certainly never been in love. I've always preferred to keep things casual," he said.
"It's not that I find it hard to meet girls – they do come up and chat me up from time to time. Sometimes I'm interested, I tend not to go for the prettier ones. I prefer the quirkier types."

There's a new interview online this evening with the actress who plays Ginny Weasley in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. In this one particularly interesting quote, she discusses her first time reading the book:
DM: Do you remember how you felt when you read “The Half-Blood Prince”?
BW: I wasn’t fully expecting what happened. Ginny had grown up so much in the sixth book, and what happens between her and Harry? I just couldn’t have imagined that would happen. She started out so shy and young, and in this book she’s gotten so much more confident and noticed. She finds herself and it’s the first time you realize why she becomes the person who ends up with Harry.

There are two new interviews online tonight with Tom Felton and Bonnie Wright, who have recently spoken to United States news sources to promote the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince DVD.
In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Tom talks briefly about Deathly Hallows and an upcoming cameo in a Jonah Hill film.
In an interview with US Potter book publisher Scholastic, both Tom and Bonnie discuss the books/films in general:
Q: How would you describe J.K. Rowling?
Bonnie: I always find it so surreal meeting her. This whole world literally is because of one person.
Tom: She's a very unassuming down-to-earth lady, the most lovely lady. I was always taken away by how genuine she seemed, and how unaffected by the fact that she's probably the world's biggest author.

In an interview with MTV while at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Bonnie Wright spoke about filming the epilogue and her experiences playing Ginny Weasley in the Potter series.
Regarding the epilogue:
"It wasn't my last scene, but it was one of my last scenes. That's where I started the journey of 'Harry Potter,' on the platform, and then to see the girl who's playing our daughter was just psychologically, it was very weird, because she's the same age as me. It was literally having a whole cycle of the journey."

It's London's Fashion Week, and one of the stars from the Harry Potter series that is in attendance is Bonnie Wright.
During an interview at the event, Bonnie revealed some of her upcoming projects:
"I shot a film a month ago that should be coming out next summer, The Philosophers, it's an American independent film. And then I'm directing a film and also acting in another one in January. It's a period piece set in the 1800's so that will be fun. That one's called Want of a Wife, it's a British film."
Want of a Wife, will be shot from the man's perspective and a sideways look at Pride and Prejudice, the classical novel by Jane Austen.
You can also see a video of Bonnie at the event here.

Bonnie Wright - the actress who portrayed Ginny Weasley in the Harry Potter films - is making her directorial debut with her new film Separate We Come, Separate We Go, which stars David Thewlis - who portrayed Remus Lupin in the Harry Potter series.
Today, we can share the first photo that was released from their twitter account, which shows a set still with director Bonnie Wright, cinematographer Arthur and first assistant camera Ben.
You can see the first picture right here.
Separate We Come, Separate We Go is a story of a 10-year old girl who lives with her single mother in a bleak town called Lydd, East Sussex. After another of her mother's episodes, she decides to walk to the coast near her home. We follow this journey to Dungeness, where she meets an eccentric man. He becomes the friend she never had; they talk about life and spontaneity.
The film portrays the poignant story of a child's loss of innocence and how she retrieves it through the beauty of her surrounding landscape and the kindness of a stranger.
The film will be part of the LCC Graduate Film project and will be presented in 2012 in the graduate show.
