Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 premiere in London (PHOTOS)
Harry Potter author, J.K. Rowling, poses with the three actors who portray her characters in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.
The final Harry Potter film opens in the United States on July 14.
It premiered in London on July 7. The Harry Potter stars hit the red carpet in London for the premiere of the final installment to the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2.
Emma Watson was visibly emotional as she walked down the red carpet to view her last performance as Hermione Granger. She was crying so much that her makeup ran. For all of the stars who, more or less, grew up playing their characters over the last decade, the premiere marked the end of the Potter saga.
“It was something I grew up knowing and a process that happened gradually,” Watson told the Toronto Sun. “I've never known anything else, so I guess in a way that's a blessing."
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 opens in the United States late Thursday night July 14.
