A snippet of news has caught my attention: Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, the sixth installment in the Potter series may be filmed in New Zealand. Conforming with the ideals of many other epic releases, the reasoning behind the change in filming location is apparently due to a more favourable economy and climate. Whether this will have negative or positive effects on the sixth movie we can only speculate.
However fans have become accustomed to changes in setting, with Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban changing, in some cases radically, the known geography of Hogwarts and its surrounds. Fans will have to judge the effect the change to a new country, continent and hempishpere has on the movie. Fingers remain crossed that any changes will spare the current casting.
Other films that have been filmed in New Zealand include: The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe & Prince Caspian.
