Potter stars participate in fansite roundtable, will attend Exhibition red carpet tonight in NYC

In anticipation of the official opening of Harry Potter: The Exhibition tomorrow in New York City, a press conference was held earlier this morning, where MuggleNet was in attendance.

The event consisted of two panels where the cast and crew fielded questions. Full audio will be available later this evening from both panels. There were a lot of great questions and funny moments. For a quick synopsis, you can check out MuggleNetLive.

The first panel consisted of Freddie Stroma (Cormac McLaggen), Natalia Tena (Tonks), David Thewlis (Lupin), Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood), Warwick Davis (Griphook/Flitwick), Helen McCrory (Narcissa Malfoy), David Barron (producer) and Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid).

The second panel included Clemence Poesy (Fleur Delacour), Domhnall Gleeson (Bill Weasley), James Phelps (Fred Weasley), Oliver Phelps (George Weasley), Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley), Mark Williams (Arthur Weasley), Michael Gambon (Dumbledore) and David Heyman (producer).

All are expected to attend tonight's red carpet event at Discovery Times Square on 44th Street (between 7th and 8th Ave.) beginning at 7 pm ET. Get there early! Risers/stands will be provided for fans.
