Rupert at Play.com Live!
Towards the end of last week, there were rumors going around that Rupert attended Play.com Live at Wembley Stadium in London.
It turns out Rupert
did in fact attend as images, reports, and a video are now surfacing!
Play.com Live was a weekend of gaming with VIP guests treated to live music, sample of the latest consoles and games, and more.
The Sun spoke with Rupert briefly and got his opinion on the event:
"This show is great, very cool. I've been playing Call of Duty with about 10 people. But I was crap, I only killed about two people. My favourites are driving games like Need For Speed, doing all the cars up."
You can view a photo of Rupert playing one of these driving games here.
There also seems to be a video interview with Rupert at this website where he talks more about gaming.

Buy Ron's Letter, Gallery Updates
Thanks to
Daphne for writing in and letting us know that props from the first
Harry Potter film, the
Philosopher's Stone, are available for purchase via
Screenused.com.
Of interest to us, of course, is a "letter" received by Ron during one of the Great Hall scenes (not the Howler!). The letter is for sale at a whopping $1,499 and consists of "4 pieces of mail that are tied with string. Each piece of mail has his name and the Hogwarts address hand written on them. Each envelope has remnants of a wax seal on the back."
More information can be found here.
Some great and original pieces of fan art have been added to the gallery courtesy of Steeph and Theresa.
Hannah has also sent in two images from Sweden. The first image is from the Chamber of Secrets DVD Launch when a Swedish family had the opportunity to meet several of the cast members.
The second image is from this past summer when a fan won a competition and attended the Order of the Phoenix premiere in London!

Updated! New Video: Rupert filming HBP!
Many thanks to
HBP Movie Pics and
Vivisco at LiveJournal for letting us know about this new video showing a short clip (and we mean short!) of Rupert at the Gloucester Cathedral set for HBP. A short interview with Daniel Radcliffe is also featured.
Please click here to download (right click and save-as!).
Update: As was predicted, the Daily 10 on E! did in fact air more footage from the set of Half-Blood Prince. They speak with Rupert for a disappointingly briefly amount of time, and even show a bit of filming taking place! Video below...

It's Official! 'Deathly Hallows' To be Two Films
With a more proper announcement expected tomorrow, the
LA Times has broken the story that Warner Brothers and the producers of the
Harry Potter franchise have decided to split the final film,
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows into
two movies!
Deathly Hallows: Part 1 will be released in November 2010, with Part 2 following about six months later with a May 2011 release date. It has also been confirmed that David Yates (OotP and HBP) will return to direct these final two movies, and they will be filmed concurrently.
Thanks to Leaky for the news!

Rupert Auctions Jacket on Ebay for Charity! (UPDATED)
Many thanks to Vanessa from
Sense.org for letting us know that Rupert has very kindly donated a jacket to the charity, which is currently being auctioned on Ebay!
This jacket was worn by Rupert at both the Goblet of Fire, New York Premiere and at the 2006 NME Awards Show!
Click here to bid!!!
Sense is a national charity that has supported and campaigned for children and adults who are deafblind for over 50 years. We provide specialist information, advice and services to deafblind people, their families, carers and the professionals who work with them. We run services across England, Wales and Northern Ireland and employ 2,000 people most of whom work in services directly with deafblind people. Our patron is HRH The Princess Royal. Visit www.sense.org.uk
UPDATE: After receiving a tip from LisaUK, Sense has confirmed that the auction for Rupert's jacket (as well as the jacket for Emma's t-shirt and waistcoat) were voided. It turns out that the auction's highest bid came from an account that had been hacked into just before the bidding ended.
Snitchseeker spoke with Jane Arnell, Sense's director of fundraising, who told them:
"We are absolutely appalled this crime has taken place. These vital funds could have been spent on much needed holidays for five deafblind children. Second time around potential bidders will be asked to provide a form of upfront identification to be pre-approved. It’s a simple procedure and we hope it doesn’t stop people from bidding again."
The jacket is now up for re-auction, with the starting bid at £19.99.
The listing for this item can now be found here! Bidding ends on March 21st.
