Helena Bonham Carter (Bellatrix Lestrange) was not the only actress of the Harry Potter Saga who attended the 2017 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF 2017), but Jason Isaacs was also among the former Harry Potter cast members who attended the festival to promote his most recent movie The Death of Stalin. Jason may be better known to you as Lucius Malfoy, one of the saga’s “villains” and Draco Malfoy’s father.

“The Death of Stalin” is set to be released on October 20 in the UK this year and also stars Rupert Friend, Steve Buscemi, Simon Russell Beale and Jeffrey Tambor. The Guardian describes its plot shorty as followed:

Faced with the unthinkable demise of Stalin, so long revered as nothing less than a god, these Soviet dignitaries panic, plot and go in and out of denial: a bizarre, dysfunctional hokey cokey of the mind. Everyone is of course initially terrified of saying out loud that he is dead – a quasi-regicidal act, which could, in any case, turn out to be wrong and interpreted as traitorous wishful thinking. But dead he is, and Iannucci shows that it is like the casting, or lifting, of some witch’s spell. All these ageing courtiers and sycophants have suddenly been turned into a bunch of scared and malicious children.

On Wednesday, September 06, Jason made his first TIFF 2017 appearance at the TIFF Soiree with special guest Priyanka Chopra, followed by the official premiere for “The Death of Stalin” on September 08, 2017. Afterwards Jason also attended the “The Breadwinner” and the “Three Christs” premieres. I uploaded some images to the photo gallery already, more to be added as soon as possible.

On Friday, September 15, Helena Bonham Carter – the actress who portrayed Bellatrix Lestrange in the Harry Potter movies, attended the 2017 Toronto International Film Festival at Roy Thomson Hall in Toronto, Canada to promote her most recent movie project 55 Steps. The film also stars Hollywood actress Hilary Swank and actor Jeffrey Tambor. A short plot synopsis can be found below:

When patients’ rights lawyer Colette Hughes goes to meet her new client, Eleanor Riese, a patient in the psychiatric unit of a San Francisco hospital, she has no idea that besides taking on an uphill legal battle to improve treatment for mental patients in hospitals, she is meeting a woman who will make it her mission to transform Colette’s workaholic life.

I added 37 LQ/MQ images of Helena to the photo gallery. I hope to find HQ ones soon.

Great news for you, UK! Rupert’s (Ron Weasley) recent TV project, Snatch (2017), which is based loosely on Guy Ritchie’s movie, will premiere in the UK next month.

The 10-part original series will premiere on AMC in the UK, BT TV channel 332/381 HD, on October 31st at 10pm.

BT TV customers will be able to watch the full box set on demand after the premiere on the BT Player.

Snatch centers on a gang of up and coming hustlers who stumble upon a truck of gold bullion and are suddenly thrown into the high stakes world of organised crime. They must quickly learn to navigate the treacherous waters of London’s underworld as rogue cops, gypsy fighters, international mobsters and local villains descend.

Inspired by the hit Guy Ritchie movie, Rupert stars as intelligent but chaotic Charlie Cavendish. Described as a “punchy adventurous show” by Variety, the series was praised by People for retaining “the flashy grittiness of the 2000 crime caper but with a new generation of hucksters”. The AV Club said that the first series “will hit you like a ton of gold bricks”.

Since Harry Potter Web‘s aim is to provide you not only with updates regarding the Harry Potter series, but also the movie adaptations’ cast and crew members. Therefore, we’re glad to show you the recently released movie stills for Daniel’s (Harry Potter) latest movie project, “Jungle” which will be released in 2018.

We’re super excited for the survival movie and the posters already promised an exciting adventure movie. We can’t wait! Enjoy the stills!

One of Daniel’s most recent movie projects, Jungle (2017) has revealed two new movie posters, the US and the UK version. Both have been added to our photo gallery. Check them out!

For those who haven’t heard about Jungle yet, it is adapted from Yossi Ghinsberg‘s memoir of the same name, following the Israeli backpacker in the 1980s as he ends up stranded in the Amazon jungle after an excursion goes terribly wrong, leaving them at the mercy of the wilderness. Daniel Radcliffe stars as Ghinsberg, the the first trailer shows him encountering all sorts of terrifying scenarios in the jungle. It looks like a harrowing story of survival to say the least.

Daniel is portraying the role of Yossi Ghinsberg, however, after premiering at the Melbourne International Film Festival in August, the reviews haven’t been all that complimentary.

The Hollywood Reporter says, “Fronted by a committed Daniel Radcliffe sporting a bushy beard and creditable Israeli accent, this is a survival thriller without much in the way of you-know-what, and seems destined to land in the Amazonian bog into which films that satisfy neither grindhouse nor art house are sucked.” Plus, The Guardian writes, “In McLean’s hands, Ghinsberg’s story feels less like nonfiction than Ozploitation-goes-tropical. His direction treads a timeworn, genrefied path, hemming and hawing through fake-out scares and jabbing crescendos.”

Jungle hits select theaters and VOD on October 20, 2017 (in the USA). Its UK release date is set for 2018.
