Warner Brothers has released another two videos promoting Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 for the 2011/12 awards race.
Both have clips from the film, with text giving some critics’ comments and stating which awards it has been nominated for so far. The first video has background music from the chilling ‘Lily’s Theme’ from DH2, while the second has a voiceover reading out the critcs’ comments and award nominations.
Even though she did not receive an Oscar in 2011, 2012 plans to be much more rewarding for Academy Award nominated actress Helena Bonham Carter. The Harry Potter and The King’s Speech star, who played Queen Elizabeth in the Oscar winning biopic and received the nomination for that role, was awarded the CBE (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) in the Queen’s New Year Honors list that was published on 12.31.11 according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Among the exclusive group of entertainment industry professionals joining Bonham Carter in receiving the coveted CBE honor, are comedian Ronnie Corbett, Australian entertainer and writer Clive James, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire creator Paul Smith, former Oasis front-man Liam Gallagher, and record producer Steve Lillywhite (who has worked with U2 and the Rolling Stones).
The Queen’s honor list is released twice a year, on her birthday in June and on New Year’s Eve, and it recognizes outstanding achievement and service across the UK. Congrats to Helena on this amazing accomplishment.
It is New Years Eve and 2011 is coming to a close, so it’s time for a quick reflection on what an incredible year it has been for Harry Potter.
This year we’ve had the announcement that the Wizarding World theme park in Orlando will be be expanded, and that a second park will be built over in Hollywood. JK Rowling began her Pottermore project, giving us new material and prolonging Harry Potter for years to come. We found out that Leavesden Studios where the films were made is being turned into a museum that fans will be able to visit. And of course we had the release of the epic and emotional final film in the series, Deathly Hallows Part 2, ending a decade-long era.
