Last March various media and fan sites visited the set at Leavesden and interviewed a number of actors, producers and crew members. In an excerpt from Leaky‘s set visit report below, David Yates talks about filming the scene in Deathly Hallows where Emma Watson’s character, Hermione, is tortured by Bellatrix, played by Helena Bonham-Carter. There were some powerful moments where Emma really lost herself in the character, and even though it was just acting, he said Emma’s screams were quite horrible to listen to. You can read Leaky’s complete report here. Warning: Spoilers!

Snitchseeker was also present and in their set report, costume designer Jany Temime talks about dressing Emma.

ALA READ Campaign Emma Watson has joined the American Library Association’s  READ campaign, along with co-stars Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint. The READ campaign encourages children to read with posters of celebrities holding their favorite book. Emma is seen holding Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet in this preview image, courtesy of Snitchseeker. A set of Emma, Dan and Rupert’s poster can be pre-ordered here. Individual posters will be available Oct 16. The ALA is also holding a contest on their facebook page with winners receiving their choice of poster. Update: Now a larger untagged version.

A new Hermione poster for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was released yesterday on Yahoo Movies. Hermione is looking quite battered in the fight against the Dark Lords forces. London’s Tower Bridge in the background shows that indeed, “Nowhere is Safe”.

Update: Now in HQ, click on the thumb.
