What would your characters' personal ads to each other be?
Emma Watson: “Hermione's quite serious. I think she takes everything a little bit too seriously sometimes. She's kind of really like - that's why I think that if Hermione and Ron do end up together, I think they'll be really good because they're really different and they're really mismatched but they kind of balance each other out and kind of complement each other like that. So I guess Hermione's ad would say: Someone to make her laugh. I don't know, just like a good kind of caring guy I guess.”
Daniel Radcliffe: “I'm actually just thinking of the personal ad that you would write to Rupert. Not Rupert, Ron. That's not a story. I don't know what Harry's would be at all. Cursed male seeks, I don't know, uncursed female I suppose. Yeah. Bookish 16-year-old seeks quirky redhead. There we go, that's the advert [for Hermione].”
In book six, Ron gets a girlfriend. Did you learn anything from Daniel's scene?
Rupert Grint: “Yeah, Ron does get a girlfriend in the next one. I think it's a little bit intense so I don't know. I did a little kiss, I did another film called Driving Lessons and there's a little kiss in that. It was quite an uncomfortable experience, on this tiny set with all the crew watching. I didn't really enjoy it too much, but we have to wait and see. It's going to be interesting.”
Emma, your character says it's exciting to break the rules. How does that apply to your life?
Emma Watson: “Yeah, I'm sorry to disappoint you, I'm deeply uncool really. I really never break the rules. I'm kind of me and myself, just not - I don't know, I just never really have a problem with - I don't know, I've never really. I mean, I'm not scared to say what I think or if I really disagree with something then I'll say it, but I'm not kind of like a born rebel. That wouldn't be a description of me. I guess it was fun to play her like that, definitely. Really fun and I think… I mean, the film's quite dark and I think that kind of element added a [light bit]. It's just kind of like, ‘What is up with Hermione? What is going on?’”
Daniel Radcliffe: “It got a fantastic reaction yesterday.”
Emma Watson: “Yeah, it was really nice. In the film, that kind of got a good laugh so I'm quite [jazzed] at that. No, it was fun playing her. I guess just I was able to do things from such a young age that I never would have been able to do. Always traveling and being given all this responsibility and freedom, so I've never really had any barrier to break I guess. I don't really have anything to rebel against. I'm quite lucky, really.”
Who did you admire at Grauman’s Chinese Theater? Did you have your own wand for the imprint and what do you like about Los Angeles?
Daniel Radcliffe: “You asked four questions in one breath! It's incredible! I think John Wayne's there so that's pretty cool. My favorite John Wayne line, it's a really early John Wayne movie and it was obviously improvised because nobody could have scripted this. As he walks out, he walks out of a saloon I suppose, because they were saloons then, not bars. And he walks out and he's walking through the square and he's quite young, and there's all these birds in the square and he walks in and they all fluster away and he goes, ‘Get outta my way, pigeon,’ which is just fantastic. So if I can have my handprints next to that man then that would be awesome.”
Rupert Grint: “LA is really cool, yeah. It's been really fun. It's just really different to everywhere else. I really enjoy it. It's been really, really good, hasn't it?”
Emma Watson: “Yeah, it's really funny. There's lots of things, like when I came the second time to LA, there were so many things I didn't know about it. Apparently my dad went to like the tar pits yesterday which I was just like, ‘That was so weird.’”
Daniel Radcliffe: “What's he doing at a tar pit?”
Emma Watson: “It's this massive tar pit which basically loads of animals basically fell into.”
Daniel Radcliffe: “Oh God, that's horrendous!”
Emma Watson: “Yeah, it's nice that he actually had a day yesterday when I was able to actually see LA, which is really cool.”
Daniel Radcliffe: “That's deeply disturbing.”
Emma Watson: “It's not. It's really cool. It's like history. You can see it.”
Daniel Radcliffe: “I was about to say that LA's very clean.”
Emma Watson: “Let me finish my answer. So it's been really nice and the reception we had yesterday was amazing. I've had a really good time here and everyone's been really friendly. It's been really fun. It's been really, really good.”
Daniel Radcliffe” “It is a strange town, I think. It's totally different from I think anything we've really experienced before. I don't know, it's hard, it's very spread out and I don't know, it's just hard to get my head around fully really. It's just like nothing I've ever - nowhere I've ever been really.”
Emma Watson” “It's very distinctive.”
The Guys: “Yes.”
Emma Watson: “You know you're in LA.”
Daniel Radcliffe: “Yeah, certainly.”
Emma Watson: “The weather's nice.”
Daniel Radcliffe: “That [it] is.”
Emma Watson: “We're all enjoying that.”
Daniel Radcliffe: “Yeah, yeah, absolutely. That's the first thing you notice because it's warm. Coming from England where they have storms and things recently.”
