There are a bunch of new photos of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter Theme Park online today as well as some new rumors!

We’ve also heard quite a bit about Olivander’s Wand Shop. I’m told that over 20 actors have been hired to act as the shop keepers, and have been told that they will be given a “wand bible” written up by JK Rowling to memorize, detailing the names and descriptions of around 400 different wands. I’ve been told that the various wands up for sale will range in price from $25 up to $150 per wand. Apparently the more expensive your wand… the more things it will actually be able to do. For example, some wands are rumored to have a light up tip if activated the right way. Other wands are rumored to have uses beyond the park, possibly being Bluetooth enabled or allowing for you to plug them into your PC and download some special functions into them from the internet. If true, one such wand is said to work as a TV remote control.

Matt has just confirmed via his Twitter that he will have night shooting this week!

Sat in the hotel. On nightshoots this week. I’ve brought my clubs so I think the driving range and then the swimming pool beckons.

So this means that Swinley Forest will be filming at night, which makes me assume that he is filming Hogwarts Battle scenes, yay!

Thanks Matthew-Lewis.com

If you recall, last month I posted about an upcoming book entitled Harry Potter Power.  Today we have some more information to share. It is going to be launched on 26th March 2010 in Cairns – tropical Far North Queensland, Australia – at at an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Gallery called ‘Canopy Artspace’ in town.

The book’s information page has been updated with a preview of the book, view that here.
