Trio audition footage on the collectors DVD to be released!

Quote:
Ultimate Collector's Edition Blu-rays and DVDs of Sorcerer's Stone and Chamber of Secrets are now available to pre-order. We are not sure what exactly will be on the disks however the cover for the first film indicates the presence of a 'Creating the World' feature, while movie two advertises a 'Creating the Characters' feature.

Additionally, in our recent interview with David Heyman, the producer indicated that we may see audition tapes from 2000.

Quote:
David spoke about the special collector's editions of the Harry Potter DVDs, most notably the extras, including audition tapes for Harry (Daniel Radcliffe), Ron (Rupert Grint), and Hermione (Emma Watson), which will be released with Sorcerer's Stone. He said he may put Evanna Lynch's audition for Luna Lovegood in the DVD set for Order of the Phoenix; and Jessie Cave's improvised screen test with Rupert Grint in the Gryffindor common room for Half-Blood Prince.

BIG new reveal down in Orlando at the Theme Park!!

Quote:
At today's Wizarding World of Harry Potter event in Orlando, Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy), who was on hand to help with the announcements, confirmed the attraction will be opening in Spring 2010


Plus new video showcasing the new park. Looks really cool!!! I want to go to there!

YouTube - Wizarding World of Harry Potter Flythrough


YouTube - Wizarding World of Harry Potter Map


Quote:
The Marauder's Map guide to the park was created by the same people who created the Marauder's Map for the movies.

In a release, J.K. Rowling said, "The plans I've seen look incredibly exciting, and I don't think fans of the books or films will be disappointed."
Quote:

The announcement took place on a Gryffindor Common Room set; Tom Felton said, "I'm not usually welcome in the Gryffindor Common Room," as he sat down.

Park will be more than 22 acres and between current Jurassic Park Lost Continent area and "Dueling Dragons" roller coaster.

The park will begin at an entryway to Hogsmeade, inside of which will be the Hogwarts Express.

Ollivander's Wand Shop will be recreated, featuring "thousands" of dusty boxes lining the shelves and an interactive experience where guests have a wand choose them. This, said Paul Dario, a producer on the park, said came from Jo talking about being on set the moment Harry had his wand chosen. "It was a very special moment," she told them.

Also: Filch's Emporium of Confiscated Goods will be inside the Hogwarts Castle, contain Ministry of Magic and magical creatures and merchandise, including Omnioculars and remote control Golden Snitches.

A new ride, Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey, will travel through the insides of Hogwarts, sweeping up through the castle and has been written specifically for the park (though it has not been revealed by whom). We will see "many parts" of the castle.

The entry gates that were in the sixth film will be recreated outside the castle structure in the park.

On the sides of the Hogsmeade street will be Honeydukes Sweet Shop, Dervish and Banges, Zonkos Joke Shop. Sweets sold in Honeydukes; Dervish and Banges will have items like Remembralls, SpectreSpecs, etc.

The Three Broomsticks and Hogs Head will feature "authentic" fare as well as butterbeer and pumpkin juice, in a medieval setting.

The Owlery will feature owls resting on rafters, and will provide a calm environment to take a break from the rest of the action. Also "owls" will be sent out using an official postmark only available at the park.

All the shops will offer merchandise that can only be bought at the park.

The current Dueling Dragons ride will now be the Dragon Challenge, where you can choose between a Chinese Fireball and Hungarian Horntail.

Another ride, the Flying Hippogriff (probably a reinvention of the flying unicorn that was at the park) will be framed around Care of Magical Creatures Class. Hagrid will instruct on the proper ride of a hippogriff.

Art director Alan Gilmore said the park will be a "completely immersive environment, "completely faithful" to books and films."

According to the NYTimes the park is estimated to cost about $265 million to produce.

Tom Felton: "It's going to blow some serious minds."

He's there right now. There might be video soon with Tom eventually.

There's no word yet as to who or when the exact opening is. I'm sure will hear more soon once the details are set. DH will be finished April/May so it's unclear yet if the trio will be able to be there. Hopefully.
