Harry Potter actor films first screen kiss with Katie
It took about 30 takes to get it right, but Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe and his co-star Katie Leung clearly enjoyed their first screen kiss. The pair, who are currently filming Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix, did, however, admit to a few nerves before their big moment.
Pretty Scottish actress Katie, 19, who plays Harry's girlfriend Cho Chang, had nothing but praise for her wizard beau despite some inital butterflies. "Daniel is a good kisser," she revealed, "I really enjoyed it. He's energetic and makes you feel relaxed... It's great working with him."
And the 18-year-old leading man was just as enthusiastic about the spellbinding love scene which will be screened next year: "My God, it was fun. Me and Katie – we were awkward and nervous at first but once we got it, it was fine."
Producer David Yates has said the kiss was equally emotional for the production team who are working on their fifth Potter film. "We've been working with Daniel since he was little and we've seen him go through all these changes as he's growing up," he says. "The crew gathered around the monitor the day we shot the kiss. We did many, many takes and it's very tender and loving, as the first kiss should be."
