Yam! Interview in English
Hermione and you - are you soulmates?
Not totally. I don't like to go to school that much like she does. And I have surely the better penchant in clothes. For it I spend all my money (laugh)! Besides Hermione is quite well-behaved and seems therefore sometimes a little like a striver. I'm definite not like that. However one Similarity we do have: Hermione likes cats, and I have two for my own: They are called Bubbles and Domino.
Because of your role you got an idol for many girls. How do you handle this?
Oh, I can handle this easily. Actually I don't take it too seriouse. I'm just happy about so much fan mail - even form China an Japan! It's obviouse, that the kids like Hermione: She is the total Power-Girl. She is smart, know, what she wants and is very loyal.
For sure you get fan mail form boys. Have there been a marriage proposal?
No, not yet. Maybe because I love to play Hockey: This isn't very ladylike.
How do you get by the boys at the set? Are you playing pranks to each other?
Oh, yeah. Once Daniel Radcliffe brought a remote-controlled whoopie cushion. This really was funny...
Do you spend your spare time with each other?
No, but we hang together the most part of the year vocational anyway. We see each other nearly every day.
Is your life changed because of Harry Potter?
No, hardly. Of cause I get more attention form people, who to recognize me as Hermione. That's it. And naturally I'm more rare at home at my family as before.
Do you belive in magic or higher powers?
This depends at the magic. There are many kinds. I don't belive in the rabbit which is pulled out of a cylinder. Here I remember something: Once I disguise at Hallowe'en as a whitch - now I'm acting one! I wouldn't have thought of something like this in my wildes dreams.
Have you been before your role a Harry Potter fan?
Yes, form the beginning. I hope the fifth book get finally released, so I know how the story continues.
In one scene you're shaking hands with Ron very hesitate. In seems as if the is something up to come between you two...
No idea, you have to ask the sreanplay author. Private anyhow isn't something between Rupert and me - Witchoath!
