Thanks to Allison for sending in an old article that has some Matt quotes in it!  It is from before the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix book release.

I can’t wait to read about Neville getting braver. It{nl}will make a nice change from being a wimp all the time. People{nl}sometimes think that I am wimp like Neville but I’m nothing like him. I{nl}hope they will be making a film on this book because Neville gets to do{nl}really good stuff like Harry. It would be nice to actually fight{nl}baddies for a change. I have been reading the new book every{nl}night. It is really good, I like the way Harry gets attacked by{nl}Dementors early on and they all get to go to Sirius’s house. I am struggling to go to bed because I don’t want to put the book down.

I added it to the Press Archive as well. 🙂

{nl} Recreio magazine has a new article on Half-Blood Prince and thanks to  SP we have a translation! And Matt is interviewed! I have added scans, HERE!

RECREIO – Which scene of the new movie you enjoyed the most to film?
MATTHEW – The snacks in Slughorn’s office with Harry, Hermione, Ron and the others! It was the first scene after holidays, so it was really nice to see everybody again eating chocolate profiteroles. I may have eaten 30 that day!

RECREIO – How do you feel when you see yourself in the first movies?
MATTHEW – I don’t like to watch those scenes. I had the front teeth and a shrill voice… And I wasn’t wearing something to make me fatter. That was truly me!

RECREIO – Do you plan to keep acting? Do you want to work in action movies?
MATTHEW – I want to keep acting. I grew up watching action movies and I think it’s fascinating learning how they’re done. I enjoyed acting in scene actions in “The Order of the Phoenix“! I’d never done this before and I felt like Tom Cruise. If I could do this one more time, great. But I’m not interested in a special kind of film. The only thing I know is that I love cinema, so, I’ll be happy with whatever that comes.

RECREIO – What did you think about Neville’s role at the end of the series?
MATTHEW – I can’t wait to read the last movie’s script! Neville started really shy, but always made efforts and has a really good heart. Harry helped him and, suddenly, he recognized that he’s good at magic, just needed trusting. I always knew that he would be an important character. It’s simply unbelievable. It was a good ending because he’s always tried to do the right thing. So, looking into Voldemort’s eyes and say that he wouldn’t become a Death Eater was fantastic!
