Filming of the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie started today at Gloucester Cathedral. Stars that have arrived include Alan Rickman, Dame Maggie Smith, and Tom Felton.

A blue-screen has been erected in the Cathedral’s cloisters to help with the computer generated effects which will be added later.

Two sets of crutches were also spotted arriving at the set – leading to speculation the scenes after Ron falls from his broom in a game of quidditch could be being filmed.

You can see some pictures of the crew preparing for filming HERE.

Filming is expected to continue through tomorrow (Friday, February 8th) If anyone goes feel free to send in pictures or what you thought of the set or whatever you saw!

Thanks HPANA!

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix won the Movie of the Year award at the British and Irish exhib/distrib industry’s RAAM Awards. Warner Bros. won Distributor of the Year award at the ceremony.

Congrats!
