AceShowbiz - Apparently, both Emma Watson and Rupert Grint share similar worries about their upcoming romantic scene for "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows". After Grint revealed his "worries" of the scene earlier, 18-year-old Watson confessed that she is nervous about the impending kissing scene between Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger.
"Well I've never had to do it before so I can't say I have any techniques," the winner of Best Leading Young Actress at the 2002 Young Artist Awards told The Telegraph at the 2009 BAFTA Awards ceremony held on Sunday, February 8. "I've never had to kiss anyone on screen so it is all new to me. Of course I am nervous about it."
While admitting her worries for the particular scene, the actress who fills in the voice of Princess Pea in "The Tale of Despereaux" spilled that she has got reassuring advice from "Harry Potter" star Daniel Radcliffe. "Apparently it gets quite boring after a couple of takes, that's what Daniel said to me anyway," so she claimed.
Back in mid-January, Rupert Grint was also quoted by The Telegraph on his thought over the romantic scene which reportedly is expected to be filmed sometime in February. "As I've known Emma for so long, I reckon it will be 10 times worse," he said. "I really love the seventh book, but there is no way it will be tame with the Hermione stuff."
Set to be directed by "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" and "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" helmer David Yates, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" will be made into two movies, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I" and "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II".
The two films will follow the three young wizard characters as they search for the scattered Horcrux in order to bring Potter's nemesis, Lord Voldemort, to his end for good. "Part I" is due for November 19, 2010 release in both U.S. and U.K., whereas "Part II" will follow in May 2011. Filming of "Part I" will be kicked off mid-February.
