To add to our previous news post in which David Yates talks about the upcoming Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie, Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) gives his thoughtsopens in new window on the film and what he is looking forward to filming.

I'm really looking forward to filming the cave and all the stuff in there with the lake and the Inferi. Me and [Michael] Gambon in a row boat for a few days. It's gonna be amazing.

I thought it was all gonna be largely visual effects, but they have built the cave. So it's gonna be very interesting to film.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is set to be released in November 2008.

UPDATE: To add to Dan giving his thoughts on the next movie, in a recent video interviewopens in new window Dan answers 10 questions posed by AP. Thanks again to Ed from Voices from Krypton for link.

It's great they will be using lots of special effects but like others have said it can ruin the movie when they focus too much on the special effects rather than the actual plot and the quality of how they deliver it.

I don't know if I'm going to see this movie or not. I love Harry Potter but the movies are a big disappointment to me. Especially the last one. They ruin the books if you ask me. I know they try. You can't possibly fit everything into the movies but they change too much. So I'm on the fence with this one.

I wish it will be cool as he says. because GoF was horrible and OotP was less than I expected. But an actual cave is very cool indeed, it must be cool to act that seen for Dan.

Ah, stop it...

I can't wait to see the film. And the coments are driving me crazy (in a good way).

Anyway, it's important that the actors have fun... then it will surely be a great film.

I cannot wait until I see that cave! It's always usually so different than how I imagined in my mind... then again, I do have a bit of a weird mind, so that's bound to happen. I hope it's going well!

This should be emotionally very powerful. I am glad to hear of the reports that they've kept a lot of the humor. HBP is hilarious in parts, which is a good balance for the punches in the gut that also come.

It's great that they built the cave--it is such an important part of the book. The actors always do a wonderful job with the cgi--but I think it will really add to the quality of it.
