Why have I loved the franchise so much? I think personally it’s the imagination from the pages that the screenwriters, directors, actors and hundreds more job titles have all managed to bring to life from the original novels written by J.K. Rowling. I also love the fact that SO much British acting and crew talent has been used in the movies and that they were primarily shot in the UK at Pinewood and Leavesden Studios. It really has all been so fantastic for British film.
Why am I telling you all this? Well, last night, Harry Potter finished principle photography and shot it’s final scene. I thought I’d mark this as a moment of triumph for all those who’ve been involved in the Potter franchise.
Over the last 10 years, Harry Potter has overtaken James Bond to become the most successful movie franchise of all time and, according to Wikipedia at the time of writing, has brought in a gross total of $5,412,504,276. Bear in mind there are still two movies to be released but this number is just insane and will continue to climb steeply for the next 2 years.
Warwick Davis who plays Filius Flitwick in the Potter franchise has been involved in the movies for the 10 years which they’ve been made and last night, he put up a few tweets in quick succession telling us that principle photography has now been completed.
The end of an Era – today is officially the last day of principal photography on ‘Harry Potter’ – ever. I feel honoured to be here as…
…the director shouts cut for the very last time. Farewell Harry & Hogwarts, it’s been magic! x
…and goodbye Griphook!
I just wanted to say thanks and congratulations to all involved in the Potter franchise, especially to J.K. Rowling who started the entire thing off.

This is very bad news for me, i just want t see more and more movies of this great series. This magical movie has really done great magic on viewers. I am surely gonna miss this movie. Well, it's good to watch this last two parts with great interest.
