>Warner Bros Pictures officially announced in London last March 1, 2011 that the red carpet premiere of the final installment of Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows will take place in London’s Trafalgar Square and Leicester Square on July 7. While in the Philippines and other countries Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows – Part 2 will be available in all cinemas by July 15.
The Trafalgar Square in London was chosen to be the venue of the red carpet premiere because the venue serves as one of the iconic backdrop of the film which is very recognizable in the movie.
The cast, filmmakers and guests attending the final Harry Potter premiere will begin the night on the red carpet in Trafalgar Square with the world’s media in attendance. Special areas will be reserved within the square for fans and competition winners from all over the world to see the actors and creators of some of the most beloved characters of all time. Cast and guests will then make their way to Leicester Square’s cinemas to watch the film.
“For the last decade we’ve been gripped by the on-screen battle between Harry Potter and his arch enemy Lord Voldemort and this is one of the most eagerly awaited films in history. As befits a great British triumph, I can think of no better venue than the iconic surroundings of Trafalgar Square in which to stage the most spectacular of send offs for this dramatic finale”. Boris Johnson, London’s Mayor explained.
We are delighted that our plans for the finale of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will take place in such a spectacular venue. We pride ourselves on the creativity of our premieres and the space within Trafalgar Square will lend itself to being a magical experience for both guests and fans.” Josh Berger, President and Managing Director of Warner Bros. Entertainment UK and Eire commented.
Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson reprise their roles as Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. The final part in the film series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 is directed by David Yates, director of the last three films. The producers are David Heyman, the producer of all of the Harry Potter films; David Barron, who has produced six of the films; and J.K. Rowling. Steve Kloves adapted the screenplay, based on the novel by J.K. Rowling. Lionel Wigram is the executive producer, with John Trehy and Tim Lewis as co-producers.
