Filming for the new HARRY POTTER movie is so intense, it has left DANIEL RADCLIFFE nursing a nasty cold. The 20 year old is busy working on the final franchise installment, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, which is being split into two films.

The story sees Radcliffe and co-stars Rupert Grint and Emma Watson's characters on the run - and the harsh filming conditions have made the actor sick.

He tells Sky News, "I'm in every day, basically. I was lying in a pool of mud and dust and smoke and it irritated my throat and I developed a cold."

A big W-O-W!


“Harry Potter” stars Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson are the highest grossing lead actors of the decade.

“Harry Potter” stars Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson have earned their ways into the “Guinness Book of World Records” for 2010 as the highest grossing lead actors of the decade. According to the New York Daily News, these young actors’ movies, mainly the “Harry Potter” films, raked in more at the box office than many of the veteran top movie stars. The first six “Harry Potter” films in the franchise grossed $5.4 billion worldwide, and there is still the two-part movie, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” to be released over the next two years.

MTV.com reports 20-year-old Daniel Radcliffe earned an average $558 million each from the “Harry Potter” films, “The Tailor of Panama,” and “December Boys.” And, 19-year-old Emma Watson earned $753.7 million each from the “Harry Potter” films, and “The Tale of the Despereaux.” The Telegraph attributes the difference between Radcliffe and Watson’s earnings to her starring role in the animated movie that made more than $86 million worldwide.

Three more months to go for the HP DVD release. It's not a long wait, isn't it?

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood PrinceThe release date for the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince DVD is December 8th, according to DVD Times. As previously reported, the release will also contain the documentary J.K. Rowling: A Year in the Life. Interviews to be included are “Close Up with the Cast,” “One Minute Drills,” and “What’s on Your Mind.” Deleted scenes include the following:

00:00:26:17 (”HARRY AND HERMIONE WALK THROUGH HOGWARTS HALL” (SC. 85))
00:01:00:01 (”HARRY AND HERMIONE DISCUSS MARAUDER’S MAP” (SC. 95))
00:01:04:08 (”HARRY RON & HERMIONE DISCUSS THE VANISHING CABINET” (SC. 118-119))
00:00:38:07 (”HARRY AND DUMBLEDORE ARRIVE AT CAVE ENTRANCE” (SC. 122))
00:00:19:07 (”HARRY AND DUMBLEDORE LEAVE CAVE” (SC. 124))
00:01:39:22 (”CLOUDS GATHER OVER HOGWARTS AS FLITWICK CONDUCTS CHOIR” (SC. 125-129))
00:00:40:08 (”HARRY JOINS RON HERMIONE AND GINNY IN THE COMMON ROOM” (SC. 140))
00:00:42:16 (”HARRY AND HERMIONE DISCUSS RON AT ASTRONOMY TOWER” (SC. 142))

There will also be a featurette on the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, which will probably be similar to those shown during the web cast presentation that I attended.

The film is expected to be available on a 1-Disc DVD (Widescreen and Full Screen formats), 2-Disc Special Edition DVD (see the cover here) and a Blu-ray Combo (Blu-ray+DVD+Digital Copy). No prices are shown at this time. As soon as pre-order is available, we’ll let you know.

Indeed, the Half-Blood Prince was worth the wait and had appealed to those who read and have not read the books.

5. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince: Though this film was delayed for several months, it was worth the wait. This adaptation of the penultimate book in the Harry Potter series is dark yet engaging. It had great pace as the story encompassed J.K. Rowling's story, thus appealed to those who have and have not read the books. It is a fun watch and beautifully set up the pair of films based on the last book, the first of which will be out fall 2010.
