Harry Potter, James Bond Style
There's a small article in The Independent today where 'Order of the Phoenix' director David Yates is interviewed.
He is currently trying to get permission from 17 different councils to shoot an exciting, high-speed broomstick chase, James Bond-style, down the Thames. But apparently a number of council members are unreceptive to the idea of having London Landmarks be a backdrop to a wizard chase.
Yates is holding out hope though. "My location manager is going to spend the next four months trying to sort it all out - we don't start shooting until the spring."
