Just last week we were flapping our gums about the New York Post article that claimed Emma Watson was refusing to sign on for the remainder of the Harry Potter franchise. Well now it appears the news has changed and all the youngsters have signed a deal using the menstrual blood of a real life unicorn.
We find the news from The Hollywood Reporter and the following quote from the producer of the franchise David Heyman:
“Through the years, and in each of the ‘Harry Potter’ films, we have watched (Radcliffe, Grint and Watson) grow into extraordinary young adults as well as remarkable actors,” Warners president of production Jeff Robinov said. “It would be inconceivable to imagine anyone else in the roles with which they have become so identified, so we are thrilled and proud that Daniel, Rupert and Emma have chosen to complete the arc of their characters in the final two films.”
I am very excited about this. When a series has a casting change I always hate it. When the old broad (woman who played the oracle) died in the Matrix series I was totally pissed, and the series suffered for it. (Most people would not hold her responsible….but for some reason I do). It is a good day for all things magical and I am now interested in seeing the upcoming films.
I do not know the details of the deals that these three amigos obtained, but I am sure that in the upcoming days we will see some of the cash figures released. I think we can safely assume that they will be able to buy pretty sweet ten-speeds with the money they will get from their upcoming after school jobs.
Darren Conley, youngsters and virgins around the globe rejoice.
