The Herald-Sun in Australia reports that Emma Thompson has signed on as Professor Trelawney in PoA. The article also has a few little quips about the actors' current accomplishments and pasttimes:

"I love my cars," Tom Felton, who plays Draco, told the Sunday Herald Sun.

"I have a black BMW 316 Estate for my training car while I'm 16 and I'm looking at getting a 1.8 sports coupe for my first proper car."

Draped in a gold necklace and matching bracelets, with hip polo shirt and trainers, Felton looks more like a big-time street rapper than the Hogwarts bully.

No less sophisticated is Daniel Radcliffe, who plays Harry Potter. At 14, one of his favourite movies is the raunchy R-rated Y Tu Mama Tambien Alfonso Cuaron made before he took over directing duties at Hogwarts from Chris Columbus.

He named Jane's Addiction, the Libertines, Rage Against the Machine and the Darkness among his favourite bands.

Rupert Grint, 15, who plays Ron Weasley, is a crack pool player -- he has a table in his dressing room -- who has taken up golf.

And Emma Watson (Hermione Granger) loves dancing: "While I'm here, I have lessons -- modern, street, body popping, break dancing and that. Back home I just hang out with my friends."

But, at 13, what appears to thrill Emma most is that she is no longer the shortest of the three main characters. "After all these years of being the shortest, Dan has come to face the fact that I'm taller than him," she said.

"By half a millimetre," Radcliffe pointed out.

There is a Rid fic in there somewhere, though probably not a very good one. I was glad to see Emma Thompson as Trelawney :D

Heee...Dan's taste in music is a neverending source of amusement to me. *blasts "Been Caught Stealing" and dances around the office cubicle*

Whether he knows it or not, Daniel is spontaenously molding himself into the sort of young man we all can't help but swoon over. He likes punk! He likes TEH MOVIE WIT TEH BOY SEX!!!

Tom, however, is sort of making me shake my head in sad disbelief. He is such a p1ebe.

I'm happy to hear that Radcliffe is the shortest of the bunch. For the sake of the movies, I hope he remains that way.

Sorry. Tine is unable to discuss this because she's rolling on the floor laughing. By the way, Tom's driving the same car as her currently. She thinks that's hillarious, as is everything else. She's also looking forward to PoA muchly, and is sure Emma Thompson will frelling ROCK as Trelawney!!

Tom- Giant plebe. He needs a makeover. I've decided that the b00 has peaked at 12 and it's all downhill. Recommend plastic surgery for The Nose.

Dan- Has given me fangirl hope. He watches boy/boy p0rn and likes punk.

Emma- come on honey, I mean, who break dances since like, 1987? (besides the people in the Jolly Rancher commericals and Cuba Gooding Jr.)

A BMW for a *starter* car? *sputters*

Am laughing that Emma W now taller than Dan.

Love Emma Thompson, although I pictured Trelawney as older and skinner.

Not even a starter car. He cannot drive this on any public roads until he is 17. I would guess that it is an old car and he is practising on private land and learning many bad habit in the process.

17? Man! In florida, when I learned, you got a permit at 15, but my parents let me drive in the neighborhood when I was 14-going-on-15.

Were they nuts?

17 for a car.
16 for some motorbikes (well moped things, since there is an engine limit of near zero).


Do you really want me to answer that last one?

Now I'm curious, especially if the answer's more creative than 'yes' or 'no'.
