Last night Chris Rankin updated his Twitter account with some very very exciting news. He said:
in the hotel, excited for filming in the morrow, but not excited for the 5am wake-up call… 43 principal cast on set tomorrow…!
This is only an assumption but I, and many others, are guessing this means that the Battle of Hogwarts scene is being filmed! We also know via Twitter that Matthew Lewis, James and Oliver Phelps, and Warwick Davis are also on set this week! Matt had also mentioned the following on his twitter on Tuesday:
Well that was an awfully short day at work. Rest of the week won’t be as easy if this morning’s rehearsal was anything to go by. Love it.
Dan Radcliffe has recorded the narration for the 2010 Holocaust Memorial Day short film, The Legacy of Hope. Daniel Radcliffe said,
When I was approached to narrate this short film, The Legacy of Hope, I felt very privileged. I felt that in a very small way I was contributing to the remembrance of these tragic and horrendous events, whilst also commemorating all those people who refused to let the horrors they had lived through dictate the tone of the rest of their lives.
You can request a free DVD of this film by contacting the HMDT Team on 0845 838 1883 or by emailing your UK postal address to: enquiries@hmd.org.uk
There will be an open casting call held next month for roles at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park attraction under construction at Universal Orlando. According to Orlando Attractions Magazine, auditions will be held on November 14 and 15th with rehearsals set for January.
“They’re looking for male and female actors who can speak with a British accent. More specifically, Universal is holding calls for male actors with strong improv and interaction skills who are able to portray an age range of mid-thiries to mid-forties. In addition, they’re casting male and female actors who are youthful in appearance. Casting is being held on Saturday, Nov. 14 and Sunday, Nov. 15 at 10 a.m. in the Universal Orlando Human Resources Lobby at 1000 Universal Studios Plaza, Orlando, FL 32819.
Full-time, part-time, and seasonal positions are available. All actors should prepare a one-minute monologue for audition and candidates must be available for callbacks on Monday, Nov. 16 and rehearsals beginning in January.”
Just a few television reminders for everyone! First, the SCREAM awards are on Spike tonight, check your local listings for the exact time. We know that Harry Potter won 2 awards, but apparently if no one was there to accept the award they didn’t do it. But I’m hoping they might have an announcement or maybe a video acceptance or something.
Secondly, a reminder that I first posted about a month ago. On November 8th at 10pm EST (check your listings), the Food Network will be airing a new episode of Ace of Cakes about the making of the cake for the NYC HBP Premiere after party! If you remember, they did the cake for the LA Order of the Phoenix Premiere as well!
I will post another reminder for the Ace of Cakes episode closer to the date!
