A new interview is now online where one of the actors mentioned, Tom Moorcroft, confirms his role in the sixth Harry Potter film, and also discusses his role as Regulus Black. While the young actor is unable to speak to any great detail of his exact scene, he does confirm he worked only one day, and is uncertain if he will be called back as Regulus for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Of interest to fans is a mention of how the character of Regulus Black will be seen in Half-Blood Prince. As it is a slight movie spoiler, please scroll down to read more.
Spoiler:
In this interview, online here courtesy of Potterish, actor Tom Moorcroft says Regulus (the younger brother of Sirius Black) will be seen in a photograph in Professor Slughorn’s office. He noted he worked only with actor Jim Broadbent who portray sthe new Potions master in Half-Blood Prince. We do not know if this will be a memory/flashback type scene or what is involved. Quotage is as follows:
How was the process of selecting you character for HP6? Well to be honest it came as quite a surprise. My drama school contacted me and told me it was for a “Harry Potter photo shoot”, but I discovered the first time I went up there that it was actually for the next film.
Where was it recorded? At Leavesden Studios.
Can you explain to us what happens on this scene? It’s for one of Professor Slughorn’s photographs, for his office.
How many days did you spend recording the scenes? Just the one, it took about 2-3 hours to complete the shot.
What others actors were present during this scene? Like Susie Shinner (young Lilly [sic] Evans) or Daniel Radcliffe. Only Jim Broadbent.
Can you describe the details of the scenario and the clothing on the scene? Unfortunately no real details can be disclosed at this time so the production team said. No photographs were allowed to be taken in case they got leaked to the public, I suppose.
How was your relationship with the Director Yates? It wasn’t actually David Yates filming this shot it was the 2nd unit director, Stephen Woolfenden.
Do you have any information about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, where your character has a big role during the books? No information as of yet, I gather that right now they’re concentrating on the Half Blood Prince.
Ooooh, didn't someone say in the other thread that they thought it was a photograph? Nice call! _________________ Blame it on a simple twist of fate. ~ Bob Dylan "To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice. With pie." ~ Anya <3
Is it just me, or is his left eye smaller than his right eye?
lol, I didn't notice that, I think they look symmetrical enough. _________________ Blame it on a simple twist of fate. ~ Bob Dylan "To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice. With pie." ~ Anya <3
I guess.. you have to stand aorund for lighting and blocking to be adjusted and stuff... and I wonder what happens in this photo.... It better be good.
I wonder why SLughorn would have a picture of Regulus in his office. Maybe beacuse he was a Black.. but then why not Sirius, too? Unless Sirius is in the picture, too. I really wonder now.... _________________ Blame it on a simple twist of fate. ~ Bob Dylan "To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice. With pie." ~ Anya <3
I suppose they could bring their young sirius back...it said young lily was back. oh and I thought...their photos move so its more than just snapping a shot lol. _________________ They say home is where the heart is, so your real home's in your chest. --Captain Hammer

Yeah, they move, that's what I meant by "blocking."
What do you think would make Slughorn have a picture of Regulus Black? I mean, Lily was known for her school work, especially potions, apparantly, but what about Regulus? Do you think it was schoolwork, too? _________________ Blame it on a simple twist of fate. ~ Bob Dylan "To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice.

didn't it say he was a really good quidditch player? _________________ They say home is where the heart is, so your real home's in your chest. --Captain Hammer
He played seeker I knwo that... I don't remember him being described as really good... I should check DH again when Harry goes through his bedroom.... _________________ Blame it on a simple twist of fate. ~ Bob Dylan "To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal.

Well, he is Regulus . . . SO I guess it works that he could pass as him . . .
I think that he could easily pass as Sirius's younger brother.
Why ew? Except for the little eye mishap, that guy isn't bad looking. He looks like a normal person. That's what I like about HP . . . The actors always look like normal people in the beginning . . . It sucks when they go Hollywood with their looks, though. _________________

I think that the looks a lot like a brother of Sirius, and I think that is what people mean when they say that.
Haha . . . Emma certainly went Hollywood. Dan did in a lot of ways. I'm sorry, but real people don't look like he did at 17 . . . There are others that you can see it in. I'm eager to see Evanna Lynch a few years after he sudden fame . . . I wonder if she'll go Hollywood. _________________

Well I think if someone wants to look like that he`ll do somethnig to look like that. Of course he worked out like mad and stuff. I won`t deny that I liekd whaty I saw.
Evanna seems too "I`m-from-another-planet" to go Hollywood, but who knows... Hollywood is "wonder FULL" _________________

lol, I won't deny that I liked what I saw, either. I just sometimes think that it's sort of unnatural, and that his body looks sort of stressed. I agree that any one could do that at 17, but most people can't do it without a personal trainer. It's tough to look so manly at that age, and I don't think that Daniel looks manly natural. Actually, when he's fully clothed he doesn't really come off as manly at all.
I agree that Evanna has that other-wordly look. That is why I'm so interested in seeing how fame will affect her in the long-run. _________________

yeah, I agree. Personal trainer kind of helps, probably because he`s yelling at you, so you have to do everything to get fit, cause you payed fot it.
lol he DOESN`T look like that when clothed, yes, but still I thnik it`s his face features that makes him looks older. Not when he`s smiling though.
^ OMG, when Dan smiles he looks like a freaking five-year-old who just met Mickey Mouse. . . It's really adorable . . . I could just eat him up when he smiles. _________________
