First 007, Now Potter To Leave the U.K.


In an announcement that stunned an already reeling British film 
industry, David Heyman, producer of the Harry Potter movies, 
indicated Thursday that he may shoot the next episode of the 
franchise outside of Britain. In an interview with the British trade 
publication Screen Daily, Heyman said, "We are exploring all options 
to determine the best place in the world to make the film. We are 
looking at the U.K. and other places all over the world." Heyman's 
comments follow published reports that the producer of the James Bond 
movies is considering shooting the next film, Casino Royale, in 
Bulgaria and Romania. 


 I don't know how I feel about this...In some ways outside places 
such as Prague or areas of New Zealand may be more easily transformed 
in the techno-phobic Wizarding World. They aren't taking the film 
itself out of the UK just the actual filming location. But I know 
some people feel very strongly about moving locations so I thought 
I'd share this.
