Harry Potter Producer David Heyman Remarks on 'Goblet of Fire' Cameos by Radiohead and Pulp Members
Looks like our favorite warlocks are getting into character. Though, I thought the spelling was "Wyrd Sisters?" From At Ease:
David Heyman, producer of the Harry Potter movies recently spoke with the Melbourne Sun about Jarvis Cocker, Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood and drummer Phil Selway and their parts as The Weird Sisters in the upcoming Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and had this to say: "In the film you’ll see The Weird Sisters play regular instruments that are a little bit strange, like bagpipes with really long pipes and guitars with three necks.” Mr. Heyman also comments that he was “quietly confident” that Daniel, Emma and Rupert “would be back again and maybe beyond.”
Cocker and Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood and drummer Phil Selway will be seen as part of a wizard rock band called The Weird Sisters, which plays at a Yule Ball held in the Hogwarts Great Hall, which is transformed into a shimmering silver wonderland with a stage made of ice.
Harry Potter actor Rupert Grint has revealed that he expects to stay on for the fifth movie in the series.
Grint, who plays Ron Weasley, is currently filming Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, alongside co-stars Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson.
"There's no reason, really, why we couldn't go on," he told the Melbourne Herald Sun. "I don't know about the others, but I want to go on."
Producer David Heyman has revealed that he is "quietly confident" that all three stars will return for the fifth movie, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, "and maybe beyond".
