Good things come in pairs! British actors and real life twins, James and Oliver Phelps from the blockbuster Harry Potter films will be amongst the powerhouse lineup attending the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo April 27-29, 2012 at the BMO Centre.

The Phelp twins were recurring characters in the decade-long Harry Potter franchise, and were one of J.K. Rowlings favourite characters featured in all eight of the films. Best known for their humorous portrayal of Fred and George Weasley, the older brothers to Harry’s best friend Ron Weasley.

“James and Oliver added a lot of laughter and charm to the Harry Potter films,” says the Calgary Expo Event Director, Kandrix Foong. “Since Sunday, April 29 is World Wish Day for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, we’re very happy to add yet more guests that children and adults alike will find exciting and entertaining.”

The brothers are replacing fellow Harry Potter actor, Tom Felton, who had to post-pone his appearance due to a scheduling conflict. The twins were famous for their pranking and mischief at the school and are now bound to bring Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes to Calgary!

Thanks to the organizers for letting us know!
