New pic from his upcoming film CherryBomb, released next summer, where Rupes plays the character Malachy who ends up doing some crazy things to win a girl’s affections. Somebody is going to die.
We told you details would be released soon and we were not lying! Cherrybomb, adark coming of age drama set for release in the UK and USA in 2009is the mystery project we’ve been talking about! Written by Daragh Carville (Middletown) and making her directorial debut Lisa Barros D’Sa brings us astoryline that follows two best friends who are looking forward to a summer of fun when a beautiful but troubled girl makes them dangerously compete for her affections. The movie’s content includes drinking, drugs, shop-lifting and stealing cars. Characters are Luke, Malachy and Michelle.
Daragh Carville is multi-award winning playwright and screenwriter and has written critically praised novels.
Rupert just started filming on Monday and the shoot will take place for only about 6 weeks.
You may view a link about the movie at IMDB here! Also keep in mind complete details will not be attached just yet since the project is still in beginning stages.
The company distributing the film is also behind the new James McAvoy/Helen Mirren film “The Last Station” about the final year of Russian Socialist writer Leo Tolstoy. They seem to back really strong story/character driven movies with real substance.
Production status: Currently filming.
Robert Michael Sheehan playing best friend “Luke”.
Kimberly Nixon playing “Michelle” the troubled girl both boys are after.
Kimberly can also be seen in a movie called “Cranford” alongside Dame Judi Dench.
The Harry Potter stories are “boring” and inappropriate for kids, the children’s laureate said yesterday.
Michael Rosen, 62, author of We’re Going on a Bear Hunt, said he would not read the books to his own children.
The poet added that JK Rowling’s plots - which have sold 375 million copies - bear no relation to real life.
Speaking during a reading tour of Scotland, Rosen said: “JK is more of an adult writer. My seven-year-old daughter watches the films. I haven’t read the books to her, you don’t want to bore your kids.”
A very lucky Harry Potter fan, tashlefay, had a chance to tour the Half-Blood prince set, meet the cast members and many more things which she included in her report below.

Hi,
I promised I’d report back when I’d had my tour of the HBP set. Took a while to organised but we managed to get there before they finish filming in a few weeks. I’m a bit gutted because the photos we took in the Great Hall and Dumbledore’s office were deleted from my camera. They let us take a few sneaky pics as long as we didn’t reprint them; they were only to be our mementos. If anyone know of a great restore program please let me know, they were on the camera’s memory, not a memory card.
This is a completely rambling essay as I try to get everything down before I forget. I told them I wouldn’t tell anything confidential and I don’t think I’ve done that (I hope not anyway). I hope you find it interesting.
We met Dan and Tom, they were both really sweet. Rupert and the twins were about but we didn’t talk to them. Emma was away studying. I had a rugby ball thrown at me by the guys who plays Neville Longbottom and Cormac McLaggen! I said my bruise would be a souvenir.
There are mini-buses a set points about the studio, you just jump in one and they take you were you want to go. The studio is enormous, we must have walked for miles and my feet are killing me – it was worth it though! There are also golf carts lined up in rows for the cast and crews, and boxes of umbrellas that have a sign on ‘for cast use only’. Everyone else must get very wet! While driving around in one of the mini-buses we saw the two night buses, only one is drivable. There were all the props from the Riddle graveyard piled up and train tracks across the grass where the Hogwarts Express had been filmed. Usually it is filmed elsewhere but it was dismantled and assembled there on tracks laid by Railtrack (or something). There are large grass areas near the canteen and they told us the cast and crew play golf and football there in their free time.
