"The Wizarding World of Harry Potter," a new theme park, is scheduled to open in Orlando, Florida, at the end of 2009.
The partnership of Universal Orlando Resort and Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. will immerse Harry Potter fans in scenes from the J.K. Rowling books and Harry Potter movies.
The new 20-acre (eight-hectare) theme park-inside-a theme park will be located in Universal Orlando Resort's Islands of Adventure.
J. K. Rowling
Fans of Harry Potter books, movies and characters will see them come to life at the new theme park. “The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” will feature interactive rides and attractions that immerse visitors in film locations and J.K. Rowling's book settings.
Park visitors will enter the village of Hogsmeade, the Forbidden Forest and Hogwarts castle, shop in Harry Potter-themed stores and eat in restaurants from the wizard world.
J.K. Rowling likes what they will see: "The plans I've seen look incredibly exciting, and I don't think fans of the books or films will be disappointed."
Harry Potter books
The bestselling books by J.K. Rowling have been translated into 65 languages. More than 325 million copies of Harry Potter books have sold in more than 200 countries around the world.
Produced by Warner Bros. Pictures, each of the five Harry Potter blockbuster movies has made the list of all-time top-20 money-making films around the world.
Wizard world
Stuart Craig, the Academy Award-winning production-designer, brought Harry Potter's wizard world to life in all of the movies. Craig will lead the creative design team and ensure that “The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” retains the authentic look and feel of the Harry Potter books and movies.
Universal Orlando has two theme parks, located next to each other: Universal Studios motion picture and television theme park and Universal's Islands of Adventure. The resort destination also features CityWalk, a 30-acre (12-hectare) dining, shopping, club and live entertainment area, on-site Loews hotels and world-class movie and TV production facilities.
