New photos from the set of HBO's upcoming Harry Potter TV series seem to reveal another significant moment from Season 1, an adaptation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. Cameras are currently rolling in Cornwall, England, with Dominic McLaughlin (Harry Potter) and Bel Powley (Petunia Dursley) both spotted in full '90s regalia. 

This appears to be part of the build-up to Vernon Dursley taking his family to the Hut-on-the-Rock, where he believes they'll be able to escape the seemingly endless influx of letters from Hogwarts inviting young Harry to enter the Wizarding World. 

However, as we pointed out on SFFGazette.com earlier today, it looks like the series could be expanding that part of the story with original material. 

According to Redanian Intelligence, "filming kicked off at the Cadgwith Cove Inn before moving to the beach, where a dramatic scene in simulated rain was staged involving a car surrounded by fishing boats and extras in traditional Sou'westers."

"The scene reportedly featured Harry and possibly Bel Powley as Aunt Petunia being ordered out of the vehicle by a man wielding a gun."

While a mistake may have been made about what was being filmed, it's feasible that this is a new scene that's been added to HBO's interpretation of author J.K. Rowling's book series. Expanding on Harry's time with the Dursleys will definitely pay off in future seasons (they often fell by the wayside in the movies, particularly in later instalments).

In related news, Variety has learned that Warner Bros. will celebrate the 25th anniversary of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone next year with "a global theatrical re-release of the original film, special edition products and retail promotions."

It's said that fans can expect a "newly designed 25th anniversary logo, which is meant to evoke the magical glow of a Patronus, will feature prominently across new and existing product lines and engaging retail activation." 25 years? Makes you feel old, right?

Check out these new Harry Potter set photos in the X posts below. 

Dominic McLaughlin has been cast in the role of Harry Potter, with Arabella Stanton as Hermione Granger, and Alastair Stout as Ron Weasley.

Joining them will be Lox Pratt as Draco Malfoy, Rory Wilmot as Neville Longbottom, Tristan Harland as Fred Weasley, Gabriel Harland as George Weasley, Ruari Spooner as Percy Weasley, Gracie Cochrane as Ginny Weasley, Leo Earley as Seamus Finnigan, Alessia Leoni as Parvati Patil, Sienna Moosah as Lavender Brown, Amos Kitson as Dudley Dursley, Elijah Oshin as Dean Thomas, Finn Stephens as Vincent Crabbe, and William Nash as Gregory Goyle.

Harry Potter's adult cast includes John Lithgow as Albus Dumbledore, Janet McTeer as Minerva McGonagall, Paapa Essiedu as Severus Snape, Nick Frost as Rubeus Hagrid, Luke Thallon as Quirinus Quirrell, Louise Brealey as Madam Rolanda Hooch, Paul Whitehouse as Argus Filch, Sirine Saba as Pomona Sprout, Richard Durden as Cuthbert Binns, Bríd Brennan as Madam Poppy Pomfrey, and Warwick Davis as Filius Flitwick.

The series will also feature Katherine Parkinson as Molly Weasley, Johnny Flynn as Lucius Malfoy, Bel Powley as Petunia Dursley, Daniel Rigby as Vernon Dursley, Anton Lesser as Garrick Ollivander, Bertie Carvel as Cornelius Fudge, and Leigh Gill as Griphook.

[frick] Harry Potter. Shit is so boring and derivative. The only reason the site cares about is because of Rowlings stance. I bet there were virtually no posts about the movies prior to her meltdown.

Oh, these set photos are definitely going to spoil a story based on a 28-year-old book. Scoopers are going to speculate so hard about the true meaning of these set photos and what their insiders are telling them. I heard Daniel Richtman say that Mephisto is in this story somehow.
