The cast of the latest Harry Potter flick will be heading back to the studio despite filming ending on the wizard series over the summer - because a pivotal scene needs to be re-shot.


'Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows - Part 1' hits screens this Friday and the franchise will come to an end next July (11) when the second part is released.

Daniel Radcliffe recently revealed that when the cameras were finally turned off earlier this year the cast and crew wept - but some of the stars will be heading back to the set once more.

Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson are needed to re-shoot a scene set at London's King's Cross train station over the festive period (December 2010).

Watson tells The Radio Times:

"We stopped trains at King's Cross when they said we could do the scene. I mean we are Harry Potter!

"We only had two days to shoot it and we needed so much more time than that. We have re-shoots at Christmas."


Fans needn't climb over each other to get to the busy London station, as the new shoot will take place at the main Potter set at Leavesden Studios in Hertfordshire!

Cher allegedly had to turn down the chance to reteam with 'Silkwood' co-star Meryl Streep on the big screen - stating she was too busy to sign on for ABBA movie musical 'MAMMA MIA!'.


The pop superstar has revealed she was invited to play one of Streep's best pals in the film, before Julie Walters and Christine Baranski landed the roles - and she had to say no.

Cher explains:

"I was on the road, so I couldn't do it."

Robert Redford totally shocked his old pal Barbra Streisand during a recent recording of The Oprah Winfrey Show, when he made an appearance for their first ever joint TV interview!


Streisand thought she was on the show to chat about her life with Winfrey and was left speechless when Redford walked out to rapturous applause.

The pair then sat to chat about memories from cult 1973 romance 'The Way We Were'. How sweet! :)


The interview will air on today's (16th November 2010) Oprah show in America.


Christian Bale Has A "Sissy" Job?

Christian Bale is not proud of himself for making it in the movies - dismissing acting as a "sissy job".


The 'Batman' star is bemused by the way he is treated as a VIP despite his comfortable working life.

He tells Esquire magazine:

"I have a very sissy job, where I go to work and get my hair done, and people do my makeup, and I go and say lines and people spoil me rotten. And everyone has that kind of curiosity of how far can you go, how far can you take it. I think it's always good testing yourself."


However, Bale reveals that by "embarrassing himself" through acting he has developed a tough skin.

He adds:

"Well, it's embarrassing to be a star. Most people look at you like, 'That's not a f**king job, is it?' And then on top of that, you learn very quickly that you're just a tool - other people are manipulating everything you do, you're at the mercy of editors, and there's nothing you can do. But I learned that there's a certain character that can be built from embarrassing yourself endlessly. If you can sit happy with embarrassment, there's not much else that can really get to ya."
