The stars of HARRY POTTER are getting a makeover from the team behind BRAD PITT's transformation for THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON - they're set to be digitally aged for the final movie.
Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint are currently filming for the last two-part movie of the franchise, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
The epilogue of the J.K. Rowling novel takes place 19 years in the future, when their characters are in their thirties.
But instead of casting older actors to play them, movie bosses are using digital technology to age them - the same technique used in Pitt's hit film.
Producer David Heyman says, "We were looking at different ways of doing it, other actors and so on. And then we saw The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button and that ageing technology so I think we'll try that because I'd feel terrible about having other people take those parts at the last gasp."
We know the latest installment Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will be out only in July, but this is such a fun article about the filming going on for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Hmm, how will Harry look like?
