Warner Bros. on Tuesday confirmed plans for the 3D release of the next "Harry Potter" movie and the one-week delay of action fantasy "Clash of the Titans," which the studio is making with Legendary Pictures, to April 2 to facilitate its conversion into 3D.
Heat Vision reported both those developments Jan. 26.
"We are experienced and have been successful in the conversion of 2D to 3D going back to such hits as 'The Polar Express,' select scenes in 'Superman Returns' and the last two Harry Potter films," Warners domestic distribution boss Dan Fellman said.
Warners said its conversion tests on "Titan" footage have gone well and noted that conversion work will be handled by Prime Focus, a Hollywood-based postproduction company that figured among digital vendors on "Avatar," whose nine Oscar nominations include one for visual effects.
"We're excited about 3D and look forward to bringing a rich, involving visual experience to audiences around the world," Warners film group president Jeff Robinov said.
The next "Potter" pic -- "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1" -- is set to unspool Nov. 19. "Part 2," set for July 15, 2011, also will be released in 3D, though Warners hasn't yet acknowledged the latter move.
The studio's other upcoming 3D titles include "Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore" (July 30) and Zack Snyder's "Guardians of Ga'Hoole" (Sept. 24).
