Warner Bros. and Universal have sent over some photos of James and Oliver Phelps from today’s Wizarding World of Harry Potter announcement at Universal Studios Hollywood.  You can view the 3 new photos in high resolution in the gallery.  There are also 4 new photos from the theme park in Orlando, view those here in the gallery!

Also, thanks to Hypable, we know that Universal announced that the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando will be EXPANDED! As always I will post any news as soon as it is released.

The LA Times is reporting that Universal Studios will be making a very big announcement tomorrow.  It is expected to be about the LA Wizarding World of Harry Potter that we posted about last week. Make sure to check back here tomorrow, I will be posting the news as soon as it is online! According to the article:

The new Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios Hollywood will be officially unveiled Tuesday. In these times of sluggish state job growth and an unemployment rate stuck in double digits, Gov. Jerry Brown is highlighting the project as a California job creator.

Brown will join the list of those muggles (that’s humans to you non-Potter readers) expected to be on hand for the announcement, including Universal head Ron Meyer and Barry Meyer, chief executive of Warner Bros.

While the project has been confirmed by the studio, details remain sketchy. But the studio is hoping to repeat the success it had with Potter-related attractions at its theme park in Florida.

The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Warner Bros. is planning on opening a SECOND Harry Potter theme park at Universal Studios LA.  According to the Journal, an official statement is due be released in the coming days, so stay tuned! The article states:

The new “Harry Potter” addition in the Los Angeles park, Universal Studios Hollywood, will likely resemble the one in Florida, these people say, which includes a Hogwarts Castle, roller coasters, and several Potter-themed restaurants including the Hog’s Head tavern, which serves butterbeer, as in the books.

If the new section succeeds, more “Potter” attractions could open in other parts of the world where Universal has theme parks, including Japan, Singapore, and Spain, say people close to Universal.
