This is just a quick reminder for all you UK readers that ITV’s 50 Greatest Harry Potter Moments special will be airing at 8pm tonight! The special is two hours long and will include interviews with the cast and crew as well as clips. Last month ITV asked fans to vote on their favorite moments and now they will finally be revealed.
To mark the release two weeks ago of the eighth and final movie in the series, Robbie Coltrane narrates a countdown of the movie franchise’s best moments. From Harry’s first meeting with Ron and Hermione aboard the Hogwarts Express through to magical mysteries, spellbinding battles and tragic deaths, every key scene is here. Ralph Fiennes reveals the secrets of being Voldemort, Julie Walters discusses how the young cast grew into such confident adult performers and JK Rowling talks about seeing her words being brought to life on screen
For those of us not in the UK, I’m sure the video will make its way online at some point, so I will post it as soon as that happens.
Starting on July 31st, Potter fans will be able to buy tickets to “A Celebration of the Harry Potter Films”, an event hosted by Warner Bros. at Universal Orlando from Friday November 11 to Sunday November 13. Packages are extremely limited and go on sale at noon EDT on Sunday, July 31. The full press release, with full ticketing information, may be read at this page!
During this special event, guests can celebrate their favorite memories and stories of Harry Potter with filmmakers, cast members and fellow fans. While all theme park guests will be able to enjoy The Wizarding World of Harry Potter during their visit, only a limited number of guests and those who buy special event packages will have access to exclusive benefits such as:
A spectacular evening gala in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter
Autograph signings with stars from the Harry Potter films
Q&A sessions with Harry Potter filmmakers and cast members, along with the creators of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter
Screenings of all eight Harry Potter films – including “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2” – at the AMC Universal Cineplex 20 in Universal CityWalk. Access to the screenings can be added to the vacation packages for an additional fee.
Harry Potter: Page to Screen opens the doors to Hogwarts castle and the wizarding world of Harry Potter to reveal the complete behind-the-scenes secrets, techniques, and over-the-top artistry that brought J.K. Rowling’s acclaimed novels to cinematic life. Developed in collaboration with the creative team behind the celebrated movie series, this deluxe, 500-plus page compendium features exclusive stories from the cast and crew, hundreds of never-before-seen photographs and concept illustrations sourced from the closed film sets, and rare memorabilia. As the definitive look at the magic that made cinematic history, Page to Screen is the ultimate collectible, perfect for Muggles everywhere.
