The production of the third and fourth Potter films was finally underway with Alfonso Cuaron helming the joint project. I couldn’t be happier with the turn of events because Cuaron was one of my favorite directors of all time. Each and every one of his movies is created with a passion that is rarely seen in filmmakers today, where more focus is placed on the commercial performance than the art. From what I could recall, my favorite film of his was . The dystopian world he created was a marvel of modern…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

June 2004, Pittsburgh, PA, USA“I’m a little nervous about the shoot today, Troy,” Emma said softly while sitting beside me. “I don’t think this role is suitable for me.”“Nonsense,” I shot down her insecurities. “It is unsuitable for you only if you think that.”Emma didn’t say anything for a few moments. “I saw the replay of the first week of filming. I can see that I’m far from being the best actress.”As much as I wanted to, I couldn’t disagree with that completely. While I…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

September 2005, LondonJawed Karim looked around the marvelous set of the biggest movie franchise ever. It was quite an eerie location, to be honest. Fake trees had been erected everywhere, along with a very realistic-looking forest floor. No one would even suspect that this was not a real forest but a set inside the Leavesden Studios.Jawed couldn’t believe that his drunken email to the biggest teenage star in the world would result in him and his friends getting an offer to fly in a private jet and…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

January 2007, Vancouver, Canada“Action!”As soon as the command was issued, Emily, as Bella, walked onto the classroom set beside the actor who played Mike Newton.“Oh yes, Ms. Swan,” the teacher acknowledged her quietly, just as Emily walked in front of the only fan in the room. Her eyes were locked on Rob, who was playing a broody emo teen vampire, but as soon as the fan blew Emily’s hair in Rob’s direction, he held his nose as if his life depended on it.Emily became self-conscious and looked…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

“You want us to do what?” Peter asked incredulously, eyes wide as he leaned back on the couch like he was trying to distance himself from the absurdity of what he’d just heard. Beside him, Ash looked equally stunned, his mouth opening slightly in a silent whoa. “Exactly what I said,” I replied, grinning at two of my best friends’ bewildered expressions. “I want you two as my assistants on the film set.” “In Fiji?” Ash asked, blinking like he needed to make sure he hadn’t…- 199.4 K • Ongoing

Finally, it was December 16.The day of the table read for . Luckily for us, it was here in LA and not in Philly or it would be very uncomfortable for us to move to Philly for a couple of days, only to come back for holidays, and then go back for shooting again.“Ready, champ?” Steve asked from the driver’s seat where he had just parked the car in the Disney parking lot.“Yeah,” I answered in my now almost real American accent, “Just a little nervous I guess. Haven’t met anyone famous…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

After my failed attempt at getting Spielberg to change the climax of the film, days went on normally. Or as normally as they could go on a film set. Steven had taken it upon himself to praise me to heaven and back whenever I would do a good scene. One thing I noticed was that all that praise was solely focused on me alone. He never went out of his way to praise the adults as much as me, even if they had given master performances, which led me to believe that I received praise only because of my age.It was…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

July 2003, Leavesden Studios, LondonI raced inside the maze, with Henry Cavill right by my side.“See you on the finishing line, Harry!” He grinned as he dashed towards the left, while I went right. Ignoring the cameras around me, I kept running aimlessly for what seemed like hours (because of all the retakes), before finally, a giant black teddy bear was in front of me again, which I recognized immediately. It was the same figure used in the for a dementor.“Expecto Patronum!” I waved my wand in…- 965.9 K • Ongoing

January 2005, Sundance Film Festival, Park City, Utah“My question is for you, Rian,” a middle-aged lady spoke into the mic. “How does it feel being part of one of the world’s biggest film franchises after a small indie film like ?”“I still can’t believe they’re letting me do this,” Rian Johnson said with a chuckle. “This feels like a big elaborate dream. I couldn’t thank Troy and Steve enough for recommending me to Warner Bros. for this amazing opportunity. I have been a huge fan of…- 965.9 K • Ongoing
