Hot Topic has updated their website with several new Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince tshirts today. 
Orlando Attractions magazine has posted some new photos of the models used as a basis for structures that are being built at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter Theme Park in Orlando Florida.
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park's official site has been updated with a new poll. It asks, "Which one of these would scare you the most?"
Actors Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson| 1. Daniel Radcliffe You know him from: A little series called Harry Potter; December Boys. Why's he good? Because he brought one of the world's most popular characters to life over five movies (to date) and has largely been acclaimed for his efforts. Will he have an adult career? Well, if he doesn't he'll still never have to worry about money, which is something, but the endlessly curious Radcliffe has barely gotten started on an adult career. His decisions outside of Potter - TV drama like My Boy Jack, his stage turn in Equus - suggest that he's not one to be typecast, and will be pushing boundaries for some time to come. |
| 10. Rupert Grint You know him from: Driving Lessons. And there was that little role in Harry Potter. Why's he good? He's supported Daniel Radcliffe's Harry Potter through thick and thin, and has a likable everyman quality which should allow him to avoid typecasting. Will he have an adult career? Well, so far out of the HP triumvirate Grint has the most solo-projects under his belt. That said, he is ginger, and anti-redhead sentiment remains the last socially acceptable prejudice, so he'll have to keep working at it. |
| 19. Emma Watson You know her from: HP Alumnus, Ballet Shoes. Why's she good? Having grown up on the big screen as struggling muggle-born Hermione Granger, Watson has shouldered immense pressure to come out smelling of roses. Now she has started to make a niche for herself outside of the franchise with a leaning towards costume dramas and a rumoured leading role in Napoleon and Betsy. Will she have an adult career? Will she want one? Judging by her sickeningly good exam results and place at Cambridge, she may crave something a bit more challenging. |

As a reward for topping a poll voted on by children, who had to choose their ultimate hero, a large-scale lego-set model of J.K. Rowling's face was constructed at Legoland Windsor.

Like what i did on the beginning of April, I posted some recap of what happened in the month of April during Harry Potter's studying at Hogwart School. Now, for the month of May, i re-collected some informations of the events, happened from Book 1 to Book 7...;
.| “This is the last Harry Potter and I want to enjoy it because it has been a unique experience and I'll never have anything like it in my life again, so this is the last journey and I really want to treasure that, so I'm not going to be running off, I want to focus on that. But the end is nigh for Potter, sometime in June 2011 [note: DH II is due out July 15th 2011], and it will be a mixed feeling because security, this family, this great group I've worked with and this material I've worked on will be coming to an end. It's a rather scary prospect of being unemployed - and having to find my next gig looms large. But I'm looking forward to having the time to spend on new projects in a way not interrupted by Potter.” |
| “Next, I'm working with Alfonso [Cuaron] on something which is in it's early development stages. I'm working on Paddington Bear because I love children. I'm working on The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night Time [adapted by Steve Kloves], which is a rather wonderful novel – so an ecclectic array of some family, some adult films.” |
After receiving the James Joyce Award last month, Alan Rickman (Professor Snape) spoke to a large group of students in Theater P in the Newman Building at University College Dublin. The University Observer interviewed him afterwards.
Producer David Heyman and director David Yates revealed they had previously considered swapping Daniel Radcliffe, 19, Emma Watson, 19, and Rupert Grint, 20, for older actors.
But the pair dropped the idea after watching the effects of the Academy Award winning technology in the film starring Brad Pitt as Benjamin Button.
The duo have now decided to turn to the same special effects for the epilogue at the end of Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part Two, which takes place 19 years later when the teen wizards are in their late 30s.
“We were looking at different ways of doing it, other actors and so on,” the Daily Express quoted Heyman as saying.
“And then we saw The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button and that ageing technology so I think we’ll try that because I’d feel terrible about having other people take those parts at the last gasp,” he added. (ANI)
