Emma threw farewell party for Potter cast
The 20-year-old actress Emma Watson, who portrays brainbox witch Hermione Grainger in the wizarding franchise, hosted a dinner at her British home to mark the final week of shooting last movies Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Parts I and II, but guests are remaining tight-lipped on the secrets they revealed as they reminisced.
James Phelps, who plays Fred Weasley in the movies, told People magazine “The last week of filming Emma had a dinner at her place, and we spoke about the best moments of filming, our secret crushes on set, all kinds of random questions. But all the answers to these questions will stay in that room!”
Although the cast are sad to be saying goodbye to the franchise, they are left with a permanent reminder of the series with the Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park opening at Universal Studios, Orlando, Florida.
Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy, joked about the park, “If I ever get a bit homesick, I have somewhere to come now. It’s incredible.”
Daniel Radcliffe, who plays the titular boy wizard, and Emma recently spoke of their sadness at the ending of the series.
Speaking before they finished filming, Daniel said, “I will be devastated when it’s over. There is nothing I watch without it triggering a series of memories. Everything about the films is so linked to my life. At the same time, it is exciting. It is the end.” Emma added, “I feel like someone is dying. This kind of love and recognition is just incredible. It is also really emotional for me. I am proud.”
