A new clip from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I has been released online. In this clip we see Harry and Hagrid arrive at the Burrow to see Ginny and Mrs Weasley looking worried.
I was just perusing The Noble Collection and noticed that they have a bunch of new products on their site! There are a TON of new wands, all of which can be seen here. The four most exciting new products can be seen below and you can find all their products here!
Some of the other new items are jewelry such as Narcissa’s spider earrings and Lucius’ snake rings.
The Sun has posted a new interview with Daniel Radcliffe where he talks about all things Potter, including the costume designers; he also briefly mentions his upcoming Broadway show!
In the scene Harry’s friends transform themselves into replica versions of him so that his enemies can’t work out who the real Potter is. Hermione is one of those friends – and so we see Harry in her bra. Daniel says: “It was better than if I had worn stockings and a corset, that’s for sure – and they were considering that option. I was not pleased about that, so the bra was just fine. I found it quite funny and everybody is talking about it and it has given everybody a laugh, so that makes me happy.”
He says: “I’m grateful that we split it into two films so that we could really flesh out the material and the story. It was fantastic, but I have to say, we had our work cut out for us. There was lots of running around, especially in the forest scene, and it made it even more strenuous because Emma is extremely competitive and always tried to see who could run faster. I definitely was faster, but she’ll give you another answer, saying that she was faster. I think she’s good at short distances, but I outran her every time. The chasing scenes and all of the action scenes were very exciting, but exhilarating is only a state that you can keep up for so long. We were shooting for 18 months, so had we spent the whole time being exhilarated, I suppose I might have collapsed at some point and would have never finished the shoot – which thank goodness, I didn’t.”
In a new interview with the San Fransisco Chronicle, Production Designer for the Potter films, Stuart Craig, talks about set designs for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
“In the earliest movies, we consulted J.K. Rowling pretty regularly,” says production designer Stuart Craig, 68, a three-time Oscar winner. “Actually, very first thing, she gave me a map of Hogwarts: The lake, the forest, the station, the road, how it went through the village. So she very carefully set it up – in broad strokes, obviously – and set us on the road, literally, to the correct geography. Inevitably, the book has to be so condensed. There’s been a great deal of tolerance on the part of the public – at least I think so. I could be proved wrong, still.”
“One thing I like to do, and I hope it’s served the movies well, is to find a really convincing logic for these magical people in these magical spaces that have a real kind of credibility – and I’m thinking of the Ministry of Magic, which features very strongly in ‘Part 1,’ ” he says. “This is an underground world; this is a ministry, so we went to the real ministries, the muggle ministries – Whitehall, in London – and decided that our magical ministry was kind of a parallel universe to these real ministries.”
“The Weasley house, you may remember, was very badly burned at the end of ‘The Half-Blood Prince’ (2009). So Arthur Weasley has rebuilt his house pretty much in the same form as it was before,” Craig says of the site of the wedding of Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour. “The wedding tent, where the reception is held, rather than make it an extension of the house, which is rather eccentric, homemade, we decided to make it rather elegant. In fact, to make it very French. Since the tradition is the father of the bride paid for the wedding, it was quite feasible that Mr. Delacour would have paid for this and insisted on some French elegance and some French style. It’s lined with silk and beautiful, floating candelabra. So it’s a nice contrast with the house.”
A new clip from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows has aired as part of ABC Family’s Harry Potter weekend. In this clip Kreacher tells the trio what has become of the real locket horcrux. Watch below and credit if taken!
It’s been a long time since we’ve had a new layout on the site so I figured you were all getting bored. I was going to make a new layout but then my awesome friend Jenny decided she would make the BEST LAYOUT EVER for me! This is the Deathly Hallows Edition of the site, and it is totally perfect!!! And it’s just in time for the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I.
