| | Printing press replicated for Deathly Hallows films
The Daily Record is reporting that a large printing press (pictured below), will be replicated for a scene in the final films, Deathly Hallows. Quote:
A 100-YEAR-OLD printing press is playing an important role in the making of the next Harry Potter film.
The 10-ton Cossar flat bed web newspaper press, said to be the only one in the world, has been used as a template by set designers who need one for a scene in The Deathly Hallows.
Owner David Phillips, from Crieff, Perthshire, was stunned when producers invited him to Leavesden Studios, near Watford, to help plan a replica model.
Note: The Deathly Hallows scenes in which a press would be required are those in Xeno Lovegood's home, as he has one set up to print copies of The Quibbler (in chapters 20 and 21 of the seventh book, Xenophilius Lovegood and The Tale of the Three Brothers, respectively). Deathly Hallows will be released on November 19, 2010 and May 2011. |

| Roro Numero Uno Hogwarts Rules! Uh wellllll...If they are making an exact replica then that will be a bit weird since the printing press in the book was in Xeno's living room...I doubt something that masive (not to mention something weighing 10 ton) will fit I'm sure the'll figure something out though

They said they were gonna use it as a template to make a replica, but it was never stated that it would be to the exact scale as the one photographed. I imagine it will be a much smaller version in the movie, otherwise the actors are going to have to squeeze around it on set.

I'd imagine casting will start soon, given that they have a script.
