The
Half-Blood Prince cast and crew will
honour the memory of Robert Knox (Marcus Belby), who lost his life in a pub brawl
last year, by wearing white ribbons on their wrists at the UK premiere tomorrow. Daniel Radcliffe, Bonnie Wright and David Yates commented on Rob and his tragic passing;
Quote:
(Dan) said: "I won't pretend I knew him incredibly well, or was his best friend on set, but I knew him and liked him, and what happened to him was obviously tragic and awful."
Quote:
"It's going to be quite a traumatic experience for his family, who've been very supportive of him," (Bonnie) said.
Quote:
(David) said Knox's death was a "waste".
"You are surrounded by young people all day long who bring a great commitment to what they do, and Rob was no different."
"He came in and wanted to do brilliant work, he put his heart and soul into it, and you just think 'what a terrible waste'."
