Deathly Hallows Updates: Krum Returns, Doge is Cast and More

As production continues on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, we have a few updates today. First, as long expected, TLC can report that Stanislav Ianevski will return as Quidditch champ Viktor Krum. As noted  over the past few weeks, the Weasley wedding is due to be filmed shortly, with the Bulgarian champ due to make an appearance at the event. Also word has reached TLC that long time UK television character actor David Ryall (photo here) has been cast as Original Order of the Phoenix member and long time friend of Albus Dumbledore, Elphias Doge. Readers will recall of course, Doge writes the piece on Dumbledore for the Daily Prophet, and leads a spirited defense of the late Headmaster in conversation with Auntie Muriel (Matyelock Gibbs) at the wedding.

Finally, as filming has resumed on Deathly Hallows (with interior Malfoy Manor scenes shot last week as we heard on BBC1, 7 Potters and Wedding scenes due in the next few weeks), location shoots are still taking place. Yesterday in Golder's Green Park in London, England quick exterior filming took place, as noted by these high res photos of actress Emma Watson as Hermione Granger. Thanks JC for the pics!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part One will be released November, 2010, with DH Part Two released July, 2011.

How are they going to do the Wedding if there’s absolutely NO mention of Bill at all in the series, and nothing about them getting married in Movie 6?! Are they going to explain it in the scene before the wedding?!

I can’t wait to see the 7 Potters scene! That will be so cool! Too bad Hedwig has to leave us…

When I was in Bulgaria I kept my eyes open for Viktor and I saw someone who looked just like my imagined version of him! I think he my have been slightly unnerved by my staring. Ohh well haha.

Wow. That is exactly how I pictured Elphias Doge to look like. Can’t wait to see the wedding! And I am soooooo happy that they are keeping the 7 Potters. I was afraid that was going to be cut!
