Harry Potter is going Hollywood.
In the wake of the ginormous success of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, the area of Universal Orlando devoted to the popular franchise, a park just like it will soon be created in Tinseltown.
The decision to bring Hogwarts to Universal Hollywood was announced on Tuesday by both Warner Bros. Entertainment and Universal Parks and Resorts. (E! is part of the NBCUniversal family.)
What's more, the already-existing Potter park in Orlando is going to be expanded to make way for even more magic.
Excited? Well, you're not alone. Author J.K. Rowling herself is pretty darn happy as well.
"I am delighted that The Wizarding World of Harry Potter has been so popular with fans since the opening in Orlando last year and I am sure that the teams at Universal and Warner Bros. will bring their expertise and attention to detail to Hollywood to make this new experience equally as exciting," Rowling said in a press release.
Of course, everyone's excitement will also need to be paired with a little patience. The construction of the park is not scheduled to be completed until 2016!
Ugh. Can't somebody just wave a wand and make it happen sooner?
