Leavesden Studios reopens for Tom Cruise movie

Warner Bros. had previously used the location for filming of all eight Potter movies, and allowed visitors to tour the inside. Now, “All You Need is Kill,” starring Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt, will be shot there.

The Chicago Tribune brings us more of the story.

Warner bought the Leavesden site, on the north-west outskirts of London, after making all eight “Harry Potter” films there using temporary soundstages and facilities.

It invested £120 million ($190 million) transforming the site into a fully-fledged permanent studio with nine stages, which opened for business in June. It also houses a Harry Potter tour that has been welcoming visitors since April.

Even before completing the redevelopment of the studio, Warner used it for reshoots of “Jack the Giant Killer” this year.

“All You Need Is Kill,” which is already in pre-production, is the first feature to be entirely based there.

What do you think? Was anyone lucky enough to tour Leavesden Studios?
