Snapecast: All Snape, all the time.

Alan Rickman never talks about Snape

The usually tight-lipped actor spoke a little bit about our favorite Potions Master at a recent interview at the Sundance Film Festival. Unfortunately msot of what he said was to explain why he doesn’t like to talk about Professor Snape…

EW: Okay, I think your wranglers are giving me the signal, but I have to say, even before I got to the end of the Harry Potter books —

AR: Before you go any further, I never, ever talk about that character. Number one, because it’s not fair on kids who haven’t read to the end. And for me to say anything — there’s a bit of it that just should be left innocent. It’s real storytelling, what she’s done, and I’m part of that. So I just never talk about it.

It’s nice to know that someone likes to keep Severus mysterious.

    OH, I just LOVE HIM!!! He is so respectful of Severus and Jo’s work……. It is so nice to see an actor have a true allegiance to his character.

    Is anyone else feeling serious Snapecast withdrawal pains? I SO miss this podcast. I suppose the next sad step is to go back and start listening to the episodes all over again. I never thought that I would sink so low. Please, anyone, tell me if there is some other dark, emo world that I can enter…preferably a world with books, podcasts, and tormented men. Thank you.
