Magical World of Harry Potter Opens to Visitors

                  The Entrance to the Great Hall Set

Next year, in the spring 2012, Warner Bros Studios in Leavesden, England (where they held the production for the films for the past 10 years) will open its doors to the public. Just think, this time next year you could be walking around the 150,000 square foot premises of the famous Harry Potter films!

The Daily Mail for the UK got in touch with the Harry Potter actor himself, Daniel Radcliffe, and asked him about the opening of the studio. “It was such a magical place to grow up,” he shares. “People will be amazed to see the incredible environment we’ve worked in all these years.” Rupert Grint (Harry’s best friend Ron Weasley) even gave his thoughts. “The sets all have tiny little details that you may not always notice in the films but when you actually walk through them, you can see all the work that’s gone into it. It’s really amazing.”
