So, the sweet Boy Who Lived in Sorcerer's Stone transforms into a rebellious, angst-ridden teenager by the time he learns in Order of the Phoenix that it's his destiny to kill or be killed by the evil Lord Voldemort.
And along the way, he falls in love -- or so he thinks -- with Cho Chang, and they share their first kiss under the mistletoe in Order of the Phoenix. And that kiss is what the world will see in the movie.
Daniel Radcliffe, who plays Harry, told Britain's Daily Telegraph that the awkward kiss was a walk in the park compared to starring in Equus, a West End play in which Radcliffe -- who turns 18 in July -- bares all.
'Kissing Katie [Leung, who plays Cho in the movies] was a very comfortable experience,' Radcliffe told the Daily Telegraph at the launch of the movie, which reportedly cost around $400 million, 'especially when compared with being naked on stage and blinding horses [in Equus], which I am sure Katie will be relieved to know.'
Leung's reaction, on the other hand, was closer to a teenager's. She told the British newspaper she was nervous, because she was worried of offending her parents. The two actors took around 30 takes to get the shot canned, and confessed they enjoyed it. The shot is out on the Internet as part of the promos.
Cho Chweet, do we hear you say?
