Thanks to Matthew at Veritaserum for letting us know that Matthew Lewis, who portrays Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter films, was at CBBC Newsround where he was Web site guest editor for the day.
He chatted live with fans and his Q&A can be viewed here. You can also check out his diary entries and some pictures here.
Here are two questions that was asked:
Hi Matt, can you tell me how you got into Harry Potter?
Hey, well I was with an agency where I had drama lessons every Thursday for an hour. My agent sent me for the open audition in Leeds (where I live) and after several re-auditions they told me I'd got the part.
Have u ever got the twins mixed up?
For the first film it was every day! But now that I've spent 3 years with them, it's easy to tell them apart!
