The Friday File #32 - Henry Cavill

With the new Superman movie out it's only fair that we take a look at the newest Superman to grace our screens - Henry Cavill. I first saw him in the Count of Monte Cristo, then other films followed Tristan & Isolde and of course Stardust. But it was the TV series The Tudors that brought him international fame and indeed the American fame that is needed to be taken seriously in Hollywood.

He would have also been Edward Cullen in the Twilight films as he was who Stephanie Meyer had wanted in the role apparently. By the time filming came around he was too old for the role and the part went to Robert Pattinson. He also lost out to Pattinson again over the part of Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. He was also shortlisted alongside Daniel Craig to play James Bond for Casino Royale. They went with Daniel Craig but it looks likely that Cavill could replace Craig in years to come possibly. He also has been linked to be cast as Christian Grey in the Fifty Shades of Grey adaptations.

I've always been a Harry Potter geek ever since reading the very first page of J.K. Rowlings books. I was hooked. When the films started to come out, this made me ever more of a geek as I was sure in another life I would go to Hogwarts (it's better than coming back as a pig or something isn't it? No offence to pigs!!)

Harry Potter is out tomorrow!

Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows comes out tomorrow. I'm this excited *stretches arms out as far as I can*. So you see? Oh you can't. Oh well, imagine a kid on Christmas morning? Yes that's me. I'm THAT excited :-P

Sarah Loves... going to the Cinema

I always at this time of year go to the cinema at least once a week and always pledge to go more during the rest of the year. This time it will be different. Oh wait, I say that every year too.

Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows

I've loved the Harry Potter series, both in print and on screen. Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows is the last installment of the series and as expected is the most awaited of all the books to be turned onto the big screen. Of course there are a lot of fans (me included who are nervous of the fact that this book has been split into two films. Part 1 is released November 2010 with Part 2 in July 2011.

Update

Totally fed up of our non-existent Summer! Had a few hours of sunshine today but not really warm enough to sit out in it. But luckily it's enough to get the garden back into some kind of order!

Peas and Runner beans are being picked once a week at the moment. Tomatoes are still green, so waiting for them to turn red. I have 2 gem lettuces that should be ready in the next few weeks, with a further 3 growing also.

Our buddleia is so beautiful and tall, it's definitely attracting the butterflies. There were 4 painted lady butterflies on it today! I'm thinking about buying a butterfly house, going to do some research on them first and where is best to put them etc

I saw Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince last week, and as I say whenever I watch the latest film 'that was definitely my favourite'. Tom Felton's performance as Draco Malfoy throughout the series has always been the best of the so called 'child actors', and he does not disappoint in this latest installment. I just cannot wait for the next one.

I've nearly got my other blog properly up and running now. Then all I need to do is just add to it every few days. Yuwie seems to be working okay, but I'm still learning what I'm really doing!

In my to-do list I have pencilled in that September is when I'm going to start serious writing with my book/story, so I have to get all my planning done by then. Should be okay...

All of the fish are doing very well. Luke who was a orange and black oranda is now just a orange oranda with tiny bits of black on the tips of his fins and tail. He is definitely still the boss of the tank but occasionally the other oranda Katie shows him that she's in charge! Good on ya girl!

I'm getting very excited about the twenty20 cricket I'm going to at the end of the month at Old Trafford. I've been learning my barmy army songs!

That's all for now

Sarah
