Tune in for all the behind the scenes secrets you can imagine presented by Thethings. The Harry Potter movies are known for the acting involved in them which sets them apart from other films featuring young stars.

What you may not have known was all the behind the scenes drama and juicy details that came along with the young actor’s time on set. We take a look at both Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint’s romantic pairings within the film and see if these on set kiss scenes were as awkward as one might imagine them to be.

Which Harry Potter movie is your favorite of all time? 😍

[adminnieves]

Maggie Smith is one of the most professional actress that I've ever seen in my life, she is one of the most hardworking actress ever! 😩❤

[Mint_Carrots]

Imagine having to be hagrid and cry over a terrifying spider

[KingBreakerYT]

All of that hard work deserves an Oscar reward or at least a nominee :(

[nicholasbennett]

Am I the only person that noticed how tiny Aragog was compared to chamber of secrets?

[margaretjimenez]

Ok but I really want them to make a movie about the life of Teddy Lupin

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was unsurprisingly a smash hit when it came to theaters in 2009, but some of the stories from behind the scenes of the production are just as interesting as the tale being told on the big screen. For the sixth film in the Harry Potter film series, most of the actors and crew members had been around the set for a long time, but new challenges, on and off the set, kept them on their toes.

Henry shouting “Ron” while he is kissing was a perfect best friend move 😂 so that there could be a re-take 😂🤣😂🤣😜

‘The kiss scene in real life wasn’t as smooth as it seemed in the film’… ‘Harry and Ginny’s romance played a pivotal role in the film’… girl did we watch the same film? Or are you confusing it with the book? 🤔😂

[MuhammadBilal-jqlt]

lets appreciate how much effort these guys have made for us in these series really commendable.

[bagelqueen]

Hundreds of people cried when dumble door's death I sobbed

[sasysn]

I think it was a mistake, not putting more voldemort flashbacks. Shoulda listened others

[momobryan]

I love Harry Potter but the way they introduced slytherins locket as a horcrux was just not great. I wish they would have explained more in the movie of how Dumbledore found the horcrux because of the movie it was unclear but if you've read the book it was and there are so many essential lessons that Harry had with Dumbledore in the sixth year that were left out. One of the biggest was understanding the root of why Lord Voldemort was power hungry. Honestly I was a little concerned Daniel Radcliffe is not as much of a smart-ass playing Harry as Harry actually is I mean Harry Potter is kind of arrogant but he has a heart of gold.

[froggylover]

Please do more Harry Potter!!!! I love it

[bella-ltpw]

I finally watched all the movies and I can't get enough! I reviewed them and my main point is that draco should have handed harry the wand in the final battle!

[gwyn.b]

"The kiss wasn't as smooth and romantic as it seemed in the film" - excuse me?!? You call that horribly awkward scene romantic? I swear the Harry-Ginny relationship in the films was completely butchered. Nothing about it was romantic. Only awkward and creepy.

[hanaleitaculog]

I just wished they could make more Harry potters movies

[radhakrishn]

I think including Voldemort scenes was actually cool like we needed more of his background.. also Jesse worrying about chipping a tooth 😂😂

[Osfrie]

Man I totally forgot about the random attack on The Burrow... why they decided to add that into the film is beyond me. Like, that point of the story, their house was supposed to be pretty well protected by the Ministry and that. I get cutting scenes to save time but some scenes being added and changed made no sense to me. Like Luna finding Harry on the Train, why? What was wrong with Tonks finding him? XD

[BitterTruth-menl]

I wish steve kloves had kept his nose out of flashbacks of Voldemort and let yates insert them
nonetheless he also destroyed Ron and Ginny throughput the series.
However the most infuriating edit cut they have made is the in Noctem chorus in which snape’s acting was PHENOMENAL (link in comment)
