HP4U has a new set report from filming of '
Goblet of Fire' which took place at
Black Park.
Quote:
Filming right now (picture Hagrid asking Harry to meet him in his cabin for a surprise!) are night scenes with Hagrid, Harry, Bill, Madam Maxime & Co. Of course then, there are the Dragons ! Obviously the dragons will be CGI based (and no doubt brilliant at that), but as with the award winning Buckbeak scenes, there is the use of a prop Dragon.
However, it is Charlie, not Bill, who is the Weasley who works with Dragons. And,
earlier, Alex Crockford who plays Charlie did say he wasn't signed on for GoF. He even said his character had been cut completely from the script.
This could either mean that he's been signed on since or that Bill is replacing Charlies despite the fact that his character does not work with dragons. Or else it could be a mistake and the person who wrote this could've meant Charlie.
Quote:
Are you excited about the upcoming movie (GoF)?
Alex: I am, although I feel I ought to mention at this point that I'm not actually going to be in it, I was only hired as an extra for film three and they've cut me out of the script.
One of Mike Newell's assistants sent me a letter saying that if they did write me back in I would be called up as I am currently on their files as "the official Charlie Weasley".
The rest of the report can be read

The wall shot is the entrance to be used to the Dragon enclosure.
The film is being shot with a lot 'darker tones' to the whole film.
They HAVE been doing set up shots for Order of the Phoenix, not here but at many of the studios, NOT actual filming yet
1.5 million pounds for this location shoot, to get around 3 minutes of footage
