Harry Potter actors snapped on set as they start filming for new HBO series
The cast for the new HBO television series of Harry Potter have finally come together to start filming the TV adaption of the hugely popular book and movie series
Hold on to your cloaks; the HBO series of Harry Potter is one step closer to being on our screens as the cast have been snapped on the set of the TV adaption of the hugely popular book and movie series.
The cast for the upcoming show, set in the Wizarding World, have began filming on set to adapt JK Rowling's hugely popular novels to the small screen. Much of the cast has been revealed, as Dominic McLaughlin will star as the Boy Who Lived while joining him are Alastair Stout as the loyal sidekick Ron Weasley and Arabella Stanton, set to portray the brilliantly brainy Hermione Granger.
And now the cast have been photographed on the set, getting ready before the cameras start rolling. The show's star, Dominic, 11, was seen wearing a blue hooded jumper and a pair of round glasses – an accessory that has become synonymous with Harry Potter – as he filmed alongside the actors taking on the role as The Dursleys.
Meanwhile, spoiled Dudley Dursley actor Amos Kitson was snapped wearing a shell suit jacket with cropped, wide sleeves which he matched with a pair of grey shell suit trousers with a blue stripe down the side. The actor posed for a photo taken on an iPad by a crew member, as Amos was seen giving the camera a grumpy expression as he appeared to get into character.
Elsewhere on set, Uncle Vernon actor Daniel Rigby was seen having Vernon's signature moustache tended to by a makeup artist as he sported a pair of 1980s style bifocal glasses for the character.
Meanwhile, actress Bel Powley was seen in costume as she takes on the role of Aunt Petunia in the new TV adaption.
The actors were filming scenes at London Zoo for the series, in the very first on-set pictures of the highly anticipated, upcoming programme.
