This just in at the Leaky Cauldron....
Victoria, a reporter in the UK, interviewed Sir Ian McKellan this weekend about X2, and he also spoke about the Harry Potter series and his friends in the cast. She sent us this report:
Sir Ian Mckellen told the audience that he was sitting next Alan Rickman at showing of Ghosts, a play at the Barbican Centre in London that afternoon (3rd May) and that he asked Alan how the filming on was going. "All well and good," replied Mr. Rickman. "Except Mike Gambon and his Fart Machine."
"Fart machine?" said Sir Ian.
"Yes, he put it in Harry Potter's bed when we were filming..."
Also, during the Q&A at the end of the talk Sir Ian was asked whether he would like to give advice to Sir Michael Gambon on playing a wizard. "I do not think that I could give advice to Sir Mike on anything; he will be very good. I hear that he took a very long time to negotiate his fee for playing Dumbledore so he must know what he is doing...."
