Matthew recently spoke to The West Australia about filming the Harry Potter series and how he feels when his scenes in the films are cut. Read the full interview at the previous link or in the press archive.
“You sit there and read the book you go ‘That’s great’, you read the script you go ‘Wow it’s still in there’, and then you think ‘Will we shoot it’ and then you shoot it and you think well ‘That’s three out of four’ and it could end up on the cutting-room floor. But it is all in there. Even if it doesn’t make it into the film, I just like being on a film set and working, I like being busy. Half-Blood Prince was a hard shoot because I was in a lot of it but I was in the background and I only had four lines and only two made the film and that’s tough for any actor. You just have to take a step back and appreciate it and then when you get a film like this one, you just make sure you bloody enjoy it. I got to do everything this year, the action the drama, the humour again. It was great.”
