London, Dec 7 (ANI): Harry Potter theme park will soon come up at Hollywood's Universal Studios, according to NBC Universal and film studio Warner Bros.
The 'Wizarding World of Harry Potter' will feature attractions similar to the Harry Potter theme park that opened at Universal's resort in Orlando, Florida, in June last year.
The new theme park could take three or four years to build and is likely to cost several hundred million dollars, the Telegraph reported.
The Hollywood park will be centred around a huge Hogwarts castle and feature rides and other attractions based on the adventures of the wizard and his friends.
Officials did not reveal how many of the Florida rides would make their way to the Hollywood park, nor did they divulge if any new rides were envisaged. But they asserted that the new attraction would be created with the same commitment to authenticity with the books and movies as the one in Florida.
Warner Bros Chairman Barry Meyer called the announcement 'probably the best holiday gift we could give to the legions of Harry Potter fans worldwide'.
"Everyone involved with these projects is committed to continuing the enchantment of J.K. Rowling's masterful books as they were brought to life on screen in our eight films and dedicated to extending the magic of the experience for generations of fans to come," Meyer said. (ANI)
