Rupert Grint has revealed that filming the last ever scenes for Harry Potter were a lack lustre experience. Warning minor spoiler alert!
Rupert Grint has starred as Ron Weasley, Harry’s best friend, in all eight of the Harry Potter movies, with the final instalment Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II due for release this July.
He's been working on the films for the past ten years, so it would be fair to think that when it came to filming the final scene, it would have been an exciting and emotional experience.
On the contrary, Grint has revealed that it was a bit of a letdown. He told Attitude magazine; “It was so weird that the last scene was so random, a green-screen shot of us jumping through a fireplace. That was it. It felt like all those years had ended with that. It was quite anticlimactic but a nice day."
However the cast and crew, including Daniel Radcliffe, who plays Harry and Emma Watson, who stars as Hermione Granger, did enjoy a later celebration to mark the end of the franchise. Grint explained; “We had a barbecue and I brought my ice cream van. They had a Mariachi band."
He added; "The crew played this video that they'd been putting together. They did this thing called the golden board, which was a few seconds' shots of every single clapperboard from every day. It was very emotional to watch."
Are you looking forward to the final instalment of the Harry Potter movies?
