The Making Of Harry Potter Announced

As if it weren't enough to have seven books, eight films and a theme park under its belt, the Harry Potter franchise will expand even further next Spring with a fully fledged exhibition called 'The Making Of Harry Potter', On-Screen can reveal. The attraction, set to open in early 2012, will allow fans to tour the sets of the hit movies starring Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint, learning the trade secrets that brought the magical world of J.K Rowling's novels to life on the big screen. Many people such as myself who live in and around Berkshire won't have to travel as far as I did for the Wizarding World theme park (Orlando, if you suffer from memory loss), with the exhibition located in Leavsden Studios not too far away from St Albans. There's no confirmation as to what age you'll have to be to enter the world of Potter, but given that the series is supposedly aimed at kids, we doubt the minimum age restriction will be very high. Sets confirmed for exploration so far include the Great Hall and Albus Dumbledore's office, with more to be revealed as the Spring 2012 début nears closer. Presumably, this was what has become of the rumours that to match Florida's Wizarding World an attraction dedicated to the Boy Who Lived would be made in his homeland, and to be frank I couldn't be happier- the UK has never done as well in the 'coaster department, we're much better at cool exhibitions like the London Dungeon and Doctor Who Experience so should probably stick to maintaining the quality and quantity of those!
