Dozens of fans gathered at Tokyo airport to see Radcliffe
Fans are getting ready for the premiere of the fifth Harry Potter film, The Order of the Phoenix, which is about to take place in Tokyo.
Dressed in black capes and wigs, fans have started to queue alongside the red carpet laid out for the stars.
Daniel Radcliffe, who has played the boy wizard since 2001, was met by dozens of fans at Tokyo airport when he flew in.
The UK premiere of the film will be held in London on 3 July.
“I’m a huge fan. I think it’s so cool you can use magic. I’ve been waiting for this movie for so long. I’m really excited,” said eight-year-old Yuina Era.
Her mother, Reina, shares her daughter’s enthusiasm.
“We’ve been with Harry Potter since the first book. I feel like I am under a spell when I read his books,” she said.
