Feltbeats.com Attends The Woman In Black Red Carpet Premiere

Feltbeats.com was fortunate to be invited to attend the Red Carpet Premiere of The Woman In Black, featuring Daniel Radcliffe. Tom was unfortunately unable to attend, but our very own Rotae got to chat with the man affectionately known as Tom’s Friend Dan!

A couple of days ago, I went to the worldwide premiere of Daniel Radcliffe’s (affectionately known on the site as Tom’s Friend Dan) new film The Woman in Black as a representative for Feltbeats.com!
The weather was – well, English – but that didn’t stop a lot of people turning up and having a lot of fun!
Dan arrived relatively early in the grand scheme of things, but he also stayed the longest and talked to both press and fans.
Feltbeats.com was lucky enough to get the following quick question (which was suggested by the lovely @SouthernBets) with him on the red carpet!
Feltbeats: Do you believe in ghosts and spirits and things like that?
Tom’s Friend Dan: I actually don’t! I’m not a particularly spiritual or supernatural person, so it’s coming as quite a disappointment to people! So no, I have no belief in ghosts or the afterlife or anything.
Dan was the quickly moved on, where a reporter asked:
Reporter: Was it difficult working with your girlfriend on the film? Did you see too much of each other?
TFD: Oh no, not at all! She worked on unit base and I worked on set most of the time, so we barely saw each other during the day. Yeah, but no, it wasn’t an issue on set.
Reporter: Any chance we might see wedding bells this year?
TFD: Ah, no!
Dan went on to say that it’s way too soon to be thinking about something like that, and I managed to get possibly the best picture of him reacting to the question:

It is also worth mentioning that after an afternoon of people saying, “Where?” after I told them I was from Feltbeats.com, that TFD said, “Oh! Right!” when I told him where I was representing!
I’d like to say thanks to Dan, to the organisers – who kept everything running very smoothly – and to my fellow reporters from DanRadcliffe.com, SnitchSeeker and Magical-Menagerie who kept me company!
Thanks for reading!

Thanks Rotae for representing Feltbeats on the Red Carpet, and the great review!

The Knight Bus Arrives At Warner Bros. Studio Tour London-The Making Of Harry Potter

In a Press Release earlier today, Warner Bros. Studio Tour London-The Making Of Harry Potter announced that the Knight Bus, featured in Prisoner Of Azkaban, is the latest addition to the tour. The tour of Leavesden opens March 31st, 2012.

Thursday 26th January:  The iconic, triple decker Knight Bus today rolls into Warner Bros. Studio Tour London – The Making of Harry Potter, which opens 31st March 2012. Taking its place among the many authentic sets, props and costumes from the eight Harry Potter films, the Knight Bus debuted in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban™ and was one of the most complicated pieces to create in the production.

 

John Richardson, Special Effects Supervisor, said: “The Knight Bus was not a CGI Creation as many people thought but in fact a real-life working bus. It was constructed by cutting up two iconic Routemaster buses, reworking the structure and bolting it all back together to provide one bus with three decks. One interesting challenge that arose during the shooting of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban was that we could not drive the vehicle across London due to the number of low bridges in and around the capital.  This meant that we had to transport the bus in two pieces between locations and put it back together as required for filming.”

Want to visit Leavesden and see where our favorite Slytherin, Tom Felton spent 10 magical years filming 8 iconic films? Book your tickets here!

New Outtakes of Tom Felton from his photoshoot for Who’s Jack Magazine by Jay McLaughlin

Last year in January, Tom Felton did a photoshoot for the UK Magazine Who’s Jack. They published photos and an interview of him in their issue 45. In February, Jay McLaughlin has published more photos from this shoot on his blog (we reported here).
Today, Jay McLaughlin looked back through some old behind the scenes shots and found Tom. He shares with us his memories of that day and he has uploaded more outtakes photos. THANKS! 🙂

Was looking back through some old behind the scenes shots from last year, and came across these shots of Tom Felton. Hard to believe that this shoot was almost a year ago now!

At the time, Tom had just finished filming Rise of the Planet of the Apes, and the final instalment of the Harry Potter series was due out in the cinemas. Tom was great to shoot. Was just one of those times you forget it’s work. We just chatted while I took photos. I’ve had a lot of emails asking for more of Tom, so here you go. Don’t say I never give you anything!
