26. Matthew Lewis attends "Wasteland" Premier, Bonnie Wright attends Oxfam Celebration

Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom) was in attendance from the premier of his post-Potter film, Wasteland. (Pictures can be seen below) The film premiered at the BFI London Film Festival on October 13. Wasteland was also previously shown at the Toronto Film Festival earlier this year. Examiner reports:

"Wasteland" is a bold take on a much-loved genre. A heist film, an underdog story and a thriller delivered with unexpected originality.
 There is not a published date for a wide release into the U.S. According to imdb.com it is slated for a wide release in 2012. 56th BFI London Film Festival runs from October 10 through October 21.


Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley) also attended an event this weekend. Ms. Wright attended Oxfam charity organization's 70th anniversary celebration. (Pictures can be seen below).

27. Matthew Lewis at the Premiere of "Our Boys"

New pictures of rehearsal and the opening night (Wednesday) of Our Boys have been released (and can be seen below). The premiere was attended by many actors, including Doctor Who actors David Tennant, Matt Smith, and Billie Piper. Matthew Lewis also spoke with BBC about Twitter and what he wants to do in the future. SnitchSeeker reports:

Matthew Lewis: Twitter’s a unique thing, really. You can see when people go on Twitter just to abuse people – and that’s like what they get out of it. That’s why they’re there. And I can deal with that. Whatever. It’s when a genuine fan goes, “I used to like you, but didn’t realize that.” Okay, that’s a bit heavy. But that doesn’t happen that often, thankfully.

The fans say, “Oh, I know you’ve done other stuff but to me you’ll always be Neville.” It seems like a really nice thing, but to me it’s like, “Well it’s not really the point, but…” I understand what they’re saying and so because of that I can’t really begrudge it to be honest with you because he’s such a fantastic character I had the fortune to play. The whole films themselves affected so many people’s lives, and him as a character did as well. So if he’s one character that stays with me for the rest of my life, I’m sure it’s not the worst thing in the world.

What I want to do in twenty years’ time is to still be working. That’s what I want. Obviously the more well known you are the easier that is. But I just enjoy being a jobbing actor. I like it. It’s fun – playing different roles and meeting new people. That’s what I hope for in twenty years I’m still working and making a living.

A few good photographs on the red carpet are great, but very soon everyone’s going to realize that I’m not all good looking, and that’s what they’re going to print. You can’t put someone up there and then not bring them back down again. I’ll just wait for this in six months’ time when it all falls away and they realize I’m not good looking at all. But so far everyone’s just ignored me since then, so it’s great. It’s fine.


The Telegraph also released a review of Matthew Lewis's new play, stating:

Jonathan Lewis’s play, first performed in 1993, is set in a military hospital in Woolwich in 1984. A cheery camaraderie has developed among the patients on Ward 9, who include Fox as Joe, a soldier of the Blues and Royals injured in the 1982 IRA Hyde Park bombing, Keith (Cian Barry), a Northern Irish private with a possibly psychosomatic leg injury, Ian (Lewis Reeves), who is recovering from being shot in the head on patrol in Belfast, and a couple of slightly less heroic injuries: Parry (Arthur Darvill), who has lost some toes, and Mick (Matthew Lewis), who has been circumcised and is suffering equally from post-operative pain and the mockery of his mates.

Their banter is interrupted by the unwelcome arrival of an officer. In fact, Oliver Menzies (pronounced, to the squaddies’ derisive stupefaction, “Mingies”) is only a potential officer — in for an operation on his bottom before proceeding to Sandhurst. But his bedmates regard that as a technicality, and the atmosphere on the ward darkens as the banter becomes dangerously edgy.

Lewis, who based this drama on his own experience, has a fine ear for the razor-sharp humour of private soldiers. Line by line, his play is very funny, and director David Grindley keeps the action going at a brisk clip.

28. First Look at Matthew Lewis in "Our Boys"

As reported previously, Matthew Lewis is trying his hand at theater. The first picture of this production has made its way online (and can be seen below). In the picture we see Lewis in a wheel chair, gathered around a table with his other cast mates. Bromley Times reports:

Set in 1980s Britain, Our Boys is as relevant now as it was in 1993, when it won a Best New Play award for its premiere production. This West End revival comes from the creative team behind the international hit Journey’s End.

Lewis, who makes his West End debut in Our Boys, is best known for playing Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter films.

Our Boys is at the Duchess Theatre now for a limited season.

30. "Deathly Hallows: Part 2," David Yates Win at Empire Awards 2012

"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2" won the top prize at the Jameson Empire Awards for Best Film. Director David Yates also picked up an award for Best Director for his work on the final "Harry Potter" film.

The ceremony in London was attended by several Potter cast members, including Matthew Lewis, Bonnie Wright and Evanna Lynch. Daniel Radcliffe, who is currently shooting "Kill Your Darlings" in New York, sent a video message thanking everyone for their votes. According to BBC Newsbeat:

Daniel Radcliffe was unable to attend the ceremony to receive the Harry Potter prize, but left a video message, saying: "I've always been quite a harsh judge of the series, but I was over the moon with this final film; I think we went out on a high note."
Picking up the best director prize, Yates added: "Anyone who's ever directed a movie like this knows that it's a huge great family that helps bring these movies to fruition and makes them what they are."
Gary Oldman (Sirius Black) also won Best Actor for his work in the film "Tinker Tailor Solider Spy." Photos from the event can be seen at Empire's website.

Actor Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom) recently participated in the 10k Bethany's Walk of Smiles charity walk in his hometown of Horsforth, England.

The walk was led by 11-year-old performer Bethany to raise money for Martin House Children’s Hospice. Mr. Lewis was interviewed by the Yorkshire Evening Post about his participation in the Walk, and also hinted at an upcoming film project for the end of the year.

Matthew did the walk after a morning training with a coach from Leeds Rhinos RL team"

He said: “I’m trying to get a bit bigger for a role at the back end of the year. It’s a film but I can’t say too much about it at the moment.”
A photo of Mr. Lewis surrounded by fellow participants can be seen here. Donations can still be made for Martin House Children's Hospice at Bethany's JustGiving page.
