Harry Potter's saga is ending, but his magic spell remains. Thousands of fans from around the world massed in London on Thursday for the premiere of the final film in the magical adventure series.

They thronged Trafalgar Square, where the stars walked a rain sodden red carpet, and nearby Leicester Square, where the movie was being shown in a plush movie theatre, braving the inevitable London rain with umbrellas, waterproofs and good cheer.

Sun broke out as cast members, including leads Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint, and Harry's creator J.K. Rowling began arriving on the red carpet, signing autographs and chatting with fans.

Speaking from a stage erected in Trafalgar Square, 21 year old Radcliffe, who has played the boy wizard since he was 11, told fans that Harry's story would never end.

he said that Each and every person, not just here in this square but around the world who have watched these films for the last 10 years, they will always carry the films with them for the rest of their lives.

Rowling wiped away tears as she thanked the actors for the amazing things they did for my favourite characters. The fans, who chanted thank you as Rowling and the cast took the stage, came from around the world. Many had camped out overnight, some for days. Most were young adults who grew up with the boy wizard and his adventures, and could not pass up the chance to say goodbye.

Luis Guilherme said that It's our childhood we made friends because of Harry Potter, a 22 year old graduate student from Sao Paolo, Brazil. I don't know how my life would be without it. I would be less imaginative, for sure, and less adventurous. I would never be here in London. 

We'd never forgive ourselves if we didn't come, one last time. The feeling is shared by the film's stars, who like many of their fans grew up with the series.

English actress & model and The "Harry Potter" superstar Emma Watson opened up about her decision to leave Brown University and her coming to terms with fame.After abruptly dropping out of the Ivy League university, rumors began to circulate that the "Harry Potter" star had fallen victim to bullying by fellow classmates. Reportedly, she couldn't handle the various Hermione Granger jokes hurled at her by other students."It made me so sad when all this stuff came out that I left Brown because I was being bullied," she said. "It made no sense at all. Brown has been the opposite.

"I've never even been asked for an autograph on campus. I threw a party for nearly 100 students and not a single person put a photo on Facebook," she says. "Anyway, even if I was being given a hard time, I wasn't going to wuss out of university because someone said 'Wingardium leviosa' to me in a corridor, or 'Ten points for Gryffindor.' I've been dealing with the media sine I was nine. If I can't stand up to a few people giving me a hard time, it's a bit pathetic, really. I've had so much worse."If she could take any cue from her on-screen character, we're glad the girl got thick skin. She's achieved more success and made more money in the past 10 years than many of those kids would in their lifetime, anyway.

"I was in denial," she explains. "I wanted to pretend I wasn't as famous as I was. I was trying to seek out normality, but I kind of have to accept who I am, the position I'm in and what happened."Emma Saying , "I'd say to my friends, 'Why hasn't X called me? Why doesn't anyone ever pursue me?' They're like, 'Probably because they're intimidated.' It must be the fame wall. It must be the circus that goes around me. Me, as a person, I find it hard to believe I would be intimidating."Watson appeared at the MTV Movie Awards over the weekend, where she cheered on co-star Tom Felton as he accepted the award for "Best Villain" She also debuted a sneak peek at the upcoming (and final... sad!) installment of the "Harry Potter" franchise, due out mid July.....
