Harry Potter goes 3D

1 month ago 24th Sep 13:30

'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince' will be released in 3D.

A total of 25 minutes of the sixth instalment of the popular wizard franchise will take on a more life-like appearance, though bosses have not revealed which scenes it will be.

However, it has been reported that the opening scene of Lord Voldemort's attacks up and down Britain - related in the book by Cornelius Fudge, rather than shown - and the final showdown in the Astronomy Tower are the likely candidates.

Warner Bros. recently apologised to fans for delaying the release of the movie by nine months until next July, promising the film will be worth the wait.

Warner Bros. president Alan Horn said in a statement: "Many of you have written to express your disappointment in our moving 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince' to Summer 2009.

"Please be assured that we share your love for Harry Potter and would certainly never do anything to hurt any of the films. Over the past ten years, we have nurtured and protected each film, and the integrity of the books upon which they are based, to the best of our ability.

"The decision to move 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince' was not taken lightly, and was never intended to upset our Harry Potter fans. We know you have built this series into what it is, and we thank you for your ongoing enthusiasm and support."
