This last week, MuggleNet was down in Orlando, Florida, at Universal Orlando Resort for a VIP/media preview of the all-new Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Diagon Alley expansion. No doubt you’ve seen the trailers, the photos, the interviews, and the endless pictures of people standing on benches trying to get a glimpse – and all of that stuff is great. But what you can’t see is the absolute best part of the park – the inherent magic.
Want to see Matt Lewis get punched by the Hulk? Then check out this week’s Twitter roundup! Also includes a sneak peek of Diagon Alley and Tom Felton working it in yet more Burberry.
As you know, the media preview of Diagon Alley is ongoing, and we’ve got even more awesome material for you today – cast Q&As!
As I’m sure you’ll be aware, over the last few days some MuggleNet staff members were lucky enough to be at the preview event for Diagon Alley! Last night saw the preview of Diagon Alley itself take place, and we were able to get lots of pictures and videos as the event happened. If you missed out on seeing the pictures as they were posted, check them all out below in our handy roundup, and look out for a full report coming soon!

There have been rumors circulating the web about the potential introduction of interactive wands at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park in Orlando.
