Harry Potter 5 Movie Set For Big Premier in Tokyo
Filed Under Movie News by Skoopz
The much awaited fifth installment of the boy wizzard’s saga, Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix will premiere in Japan on June 28, way ahead of its July 13 international playdate and its London showing on July 3.
A Warner Bros. spokeswoman in Tokyo said British actor Daniel Radcliffe, who plays Harry, would come to Tokyo for the event. No word yet if other castmates will join him.
There is “no special reason” why the film is making its premiere in Japan, the spokeswoman said.
But clearly, the Tokyo premiere last month of another highly anticipated sequel, “Spider-Man 3,” was seen as a shrewd push into the faster-growing international market that could help boost box-office revenues.
The seventh and final book in the “Harry Potter” series, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” will go on sale on July 21, but it is not clear when the film version will be made.
