Emma Watson's 'Beauty': Five Other 'Harry Potter' Fairy Tales

Posted 2/14/12 11:10 am EST by Terri Schwartz in News

Emma Watson

Guillermo del Toro is attached to direct a new take on "Beauty and the Beast," with Emma Watson set to star. It’s a long-rumored collaboration that I've been looking forward to greatly, as del Toro is one of the most visual directors of our time and will also likely be able to coax a very un-Hermione performance out of Watson.

The Hollywood Reporter has the news, adding that Andrew Davies will write the script. But the idea of Watson as Belle in "Beauty and the Beast" got us wondering what other "Harry Potter" stars would fit well in a movie inspired by a fairytale. Surprisingly, there are quite a few. Hollywood, feel free to pilfer our ideas.

Daniel Radcliffe On 'Deathly Hallows' Oscar Snub: 'I Was Slightly Miffed'

Posted 2/8/12 3:15 pm EST by Terri Schwartz in Commentary, Oscars

Harry Potter

"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2" got snubbed at the Oscars. It's something that most of us here on the MTV Movies Blog team -- and many of you fans out there -- can agree on. But apparently leading man Daniel Radcliffe agrees with us, and he's made his displeasure known.

"There's a certain amount of snobbery," Radcliffe said in an interview with the Radio Times (via The Guardian). "It's kind of disheartening. I never thought I'd care. But it would've been nice to have some recognition, just for the hours put in."

"I don't think the Oscars like commercial films, or kids' films, unless they're directed by Martin Scorsese," Radcliffe added. "I was watching Hugo the other day and going, 'Why was this nominated and we're not?' I was slightly miffed."

Daniel Radcliffe Prepares To 'Kill Your Darlings'

Posted 2/3/12 11:00 am EST by Kevin P. Sullivan in Interviews

Life has been busy for Daniel Radcliffe, as usual, but soon he's hopefully looking forward to some time off before starting his next project, "Kill Your Darlings."

MTV News spoke with the actor while he was promoting his new film "The Woman in Black," which would lead into a small break from work for Radcliffe. "It would hopefully be that I would definitely have three weeks off in February," he said. "And then shortly after that I would be hopefully making a film again."

How Harry Potter Would Handle 'The Woman In Black'

Posted 2/2/12 3:12 pm EST by Josh Wigler in Commentary, Humor

The Woman in Black

"The Woman in Black" haunts theaters this weekend, promising to deliver a brand new side of Daniel Radcliffe that even his "Equus" fans have yet to see.

Of course, we've seen Radcliffe battle the supernatural before. Eight times before, in fact. Indeed, while we're excited to see how his turn as Arthur Kipps fares against a haunted house, we can't help ourselves from wondering how much easier a time he'd have getting rid of that pesky woman with his reliable Hogwarts education in tow.

With that in mind, keep on reading for five ways Harry Potter himself would deal with "The Woman in Black."

Daniel Radcliffe Won't Film More Wizarding World Of Harry Potter Rides

Posted 1/31/12 11:43 am EST by Terri Schwartz in Interviews, News

The next few years are going to be pretty exciting for fans of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. It was recently announced that a new Wizarding World location would be opening up in Universal Hollywood over the next few years as Universal Orlando expands its current "Potter"-themed area.

What's neat about the Wizarding World is the ability for the "Potter" legacy to live on even as we get further and further away from the culmination of the book and film series'. No matter how many years pass, Harry, Ron and Hermione will still be there, ageless, inviting fans to go on adventures with them in "Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey."

Daniel Radcliffe and castmates Emma Watson and Rupert Grint all recorded video specifically for "Forbidden Journey" while they were still shooting "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows." It's worth wondering, then, whether or not Wizarding World's expansion means Dan, Emma and Rupert might don their Hogwarts uniform again over the next few years.

When MTV News caught up with Radcliffe while he was promoting "The Woman in Black," he said he doesn't see it happening any time soon.

'Woman In Black' Poster Warns To 'Fear Her Curse'

Posted 1/11/12 11:43 am EST by Terri Schwartz in Posters

There's less than a month until we'll have the pleasure to ~~be absolutely terrified by~~ see Daniel Radcliffe make his first post-"Harry Potter" film debut in "The Woman in Black," and we couldn't be more excited. Judging by your passionate response in the MTV Movie Brawl 2012, we're guessing that most of you feel the same way. That's why we're pretty stoked that a new poster for the flick has made its way to the web.

Empire got their hands on the new image, which places Radcliffe front and center. Though he has a variety of prestigious costars -- from Ciaran Hinds to Janet McTeer -- it's been nice to see that his involvement is the selling point of the movie. We're going to make the assumption that his character, a father and lawyer named Arthur Kipps, has taken many steps away from "Potter" judging by this image and the previous trailers released.

Daniel Radcliffe Goes Rogue In 'American Talk: Ghost Protocol'

Posted 1/10/12 11:32 am EST by Terri Schwartz in After Hours

We're going to be up front with you right now: the main reason you should watch the latest After Hours, "American Talk: Ghost Protocol," is because you get to see Daniel Radcliffe punch MTV News' Josh Horowitz as hard as he can. Though Radcliffe has survived several incarnations of the show in the past, we felt he needed yet another challenge to prove that the "Harry Potter" star is certifiably American.

So strap on your Captain America mask and pull your American flag snuggie closer around you, because this time, things get serious.
