New video interviews with Katie and Robert

MyMovies.net has posted a new video interview with Katie Leung (Cho Chang) and Robert Pattinson (Cedric Diggory), in which they discuss when and where they were when they found out they were cast in the movie, their first days on set, and feedback from fans.

Robert said, "I read a lot as the shoot went on, and I read the book loads and loads of times. I gradually found out about all these Harry Potter websites, and the comments, which they put in the forums, I thought were really, really helpful, 'cause they remind you of little things - well, things that you've never even noticed in the book, which are really helpful. There are lots of cool things, like even his main description, which was like the strong, silent type or something - I completely overlooked that in the book, and I read some fans saying that, so I thought, "I'll play it strong and silent."

The interview can be seen here. Thanks to HP4U for the tip!
