New Article, Photo from The Syndicate

Yet another new photo of Matthew Lewis in The Syndicate has surfaced online along with an article on The Mirror’s website. You can see the new photo in the gallery and read a snippet from the article below (there are spoilers so beware):

Tonight it’s Jamie’s story and we get more of an understanding about why he’s such a plank. You’ll still hate him, though.

While we wait to see if he’ll get his comeuppance for his part in the store robbery, Bob gets married and then has the op that could save his life.

And, following last week’s ­fabulous plot twist Leanne, (Joanna Page) faces court.

New Photo from The Syndicate; Transcript from Sara Cox Interview

Today we have two little bits of news. The first is a new promotional photo of Matthew Lewis from The Syndicate which you can view in the gallery.

Second, thanks to Kerstin, we have the full transcript from Matthew’s radio appearance on the Sara Cox show on BBC Radio One.  You can read the full interview in the press archive! In the interview he talks about The Syndicate, Harry Potter, Rugby, his “lucky number” and more.

Sara: Now do you have season ticket with rugby? Can you get season tickets for these?

Matt: Yeah, you can indeed yeah. Longstanding at Headingly stadium yeah

Sara: Oh lovely. Do you ever get recognized? Was it tricky because you were in all eight Harry Potter films, so did you get recognized when you used to go to rugby?

Matt: Yeah a little bit. To be honest with you, the last couple of weeks it’s been more about The Syndicate, which has been a bit different. Um, you know sort of people don’t even mention Harry Potter, which is quite strange.

Sara: Oh, beautifully and subtly brought on to your new show that your plugging there.

Matt: Yeah, put that in there

Sara: I must say were looking at pictures of you here, we will definitely get on to The Syndicate in a moment. When you were Neville Longbottom, how should I put this, well I bet your mother loved your face, but you were a little bit porkier, you were a little, especially when you were very young. Then is it true when you were in the latter film they had to ugly you up a little bit because you had gone to darn handsome.

Matt: Um, well I certainly had to have quite a bit of makeup on in the last film or so, for whatever reason, I have no idea why. But um.

Sara: I bet when you walk on set they go, “oh no.” Because it probably happened with all the stars, I mean with Emma and with all of them where they just walk on set and suddenly they look a bit more chiseled and grown up and a bit like they’ve grown. Because kids take time to grow into their faces don’t they?

Matt: Yeah absolutely

Sara: And they were all “oh no Matthew’s gone all handsome on us.”

Matt: Well we all started at the ages of sort of nine, ten, eleven, and then finished when we were about twenty so

Don’t forget to catch the final episode of The Syndicate tonight at 9pm on BBC One!

New Photo of Matthew Lewis in Wasteland

This morning the Wasteland Facebook page asked fans to like their status to reveal a new promotional shot of Matthew Lewis and Luke Treadaway  in the film! Luke plays the main protagonist in the film while Matthew plays one of his friends, Dodd. They have since released the image, which can be found, in super high resolution, in the gallery!

Wasteland finished filming earlier in the month and is slated for release later this year.  More news and photos will be posted as they are released! For those of you that missed in previous posts, the synopsis of the film is as follows:

Battered, bruised and under arrest, Harvey Denton sits in a police interview room facing interrogation. Clutching a stack of eyewitness statements, Detective Inspector West has no doubt as to Harvey’s part in a foiled robbery, and his subsequent attempted murder of local businessman Steven Roper.

Denying nothing, Harvey agrees to tell his version of events in full. We take in his release from prison a month earlier, and the malevolent, unjust act that put him there. We see his emotional reunion with his sibling-like best friends, and theimmovable loyalty they have for one another. We see the rekindling of a lost love, a second chance for two people meant for each other. We see the ingenious planning of the ill-fated robbery, the amazing twist, the shocking outcome, and the real driving force behind it – retribution. What unfolds is an exhilarating, moving and hilarious story of loyalty, jealousy, friendship, revenge and the pursuit of happiness.

New Photo & Article on The Syndicate

The Telegraph has posted a new article on The Syndicate as well as a new photo of Matthew and co-star Amy, who play Jamie and Amy (Jamie’s sister-in-law) respectively. The article mostly focuses on Denise, one of the winners in The Syndicate. The photo may be seen in the gallery.

In the must-watch but can’t-look Grand Guignol BBC One serial The Syndicate, Timothy Spall is the dreamboat among the male cast members. Among the females it has to be Denise, because she is the only one with a personality. But it has to be admitted that when she got her teeth fixed, there was still half an acre of her outer surface that might still have repaid attention. No doubt the actress, Lorraine Bruce, looks like Keira Knightley in real life.

If you don’t know the plot, here it is. Five employees in a doomed supermarket somewhere near Leeds win 18 million pounds of lottery money between them. What happens next is a mixture of Spend Spend Spend and every other show in which you have seen people of restricted mental capacity having their lives torched by unrestricted wealth.

The Syndicate airs on Tuesday nights at 9pm on BBC One.  There are two episodes left, with the fifth episode focused on Matthew’s character Jamie.
