Cast & Crew Arrive At Shell Cottage To Film Deathly Hallows

We previously reported on the Deathly Hallows film set construction of Shell Cottage in Pembrokeshire, Wales. Now, The Leaky Cauldron has received reports of Harry Potter stars Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter), Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley), Emma Watson (Hermione Granger), Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood), Domhnall Gleeson (Bill Weasley), and Warwick Davis (as Griphook) arriving in the area with the crew. They were seen earlier today at the beach.

One report was from Jo:

"From the looks of the conservatory and garden, it looks like they may do some internal filming. You can also see a chair in one of the front windows. I couldn’t get over the detail, the little window next the chimney is just such a nice effect, even lobster pots in the garden!"

Since the UK is approximately five hours ahead of us, I believe filming may have already started (per TLC's report of an early morning filming) at Freshwater Beach. smile

There are photos of the film crew setting up for filming at Shell Cottage in the photo gallery, courtsey of a Facebook group for Freshwater Beach who has photos from S. Click here to see them.

Warwick Davis Shares Acting In Literature With Pupils

According to an article posted on Peterborough Today, Warwick Davis visited students from Year 7 and 13 at Sir Harry Smith Community College in Whittlesey this past Tuesday. The Harry Potter star shared his experiences in portraying “Professor Flitwick”. He also discussed his other films such as Star Wars and The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. Then, Mr. Davis answered questions asked by the students.

Angela Curtis, school librarian, was quoted to have said this about the actor’s visit:

"All of the children were all really enthusiastic and asked him lots of probing questions. As they are familiar with all the films Warwick has been in, they had a huge list of questions they were eager to ask him. We like to invite people like Warwick in as often as we can so the children can hear about different people's lifestyles and experiences."

Warwick Davis Speaks of Deathly Hallows

Warwick Davis, who portrays Professor Flitwick in the Harry Potter films, recently spoke with MTV about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

For his part, Davis is positively thrilled that the whole sequence won’t get shortchanged, thanks to a recent decision to split the seventh novel into two feature length films.

“I think that’s a good idea because when you try and squeeze these quite lengthy novels into a two-hour movie, a two-and a half hour film there is gonna be stuff that’s left out,” Davis enthused. “There’s so much in the last book, I think it’ll make two really good films. It’s worthy of that.”

Note that the article states that Mr. Davis portrayed Griphook in the films which is incorrect.
