Product Description
Biography® reveals the magical stories behind the stars of Harry Potter.
They were virtually unknown when they were cast in the first Harry Potter movie in 2000, but Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint have since become worldwide stars. When Radcliffe won the coveted role as Harry in The Sorcerer's Stone, he was plucked from almost compete obscurity. Grint was a fan of the books and wanted a part in the films so much that he sent a video of himself rapping about how much he wanted the role. Watson was just eleven and had almost no acting experience when the film was released. Today, all the Potter kids are grown, especially Watson, who has been named one of the world's sexiest women by the magazine FHM.
This revealing DVD tells the amazing story behind one of the largest talent searches in history: the hunt for three unknown young actors who could be the faces of what was to become the highest grossing film series of all time. From normality to worldwide superstardom at just eleven years of age, this is the stuff of dreams for children all over the world.
• Includes interviews with J.K. Rowling and Daniel Radcliffe.

This DVD which lasts approximately forty minutes is most disappointing,most of the forty minutes is taken up by american critics/ reviewers chatting and the interviews with the kids are old ones and in total time are not more than 3 minutes. Don't buy it its a waste of money.

I was hoping for more about each of the actors. Instead there was 15 mins on the filming in general, 15 minutes on Daniel, and then 15 for both of the other 2 combined. Will look forward to a better biography to come out.
