A report yesterday that WB scoped out “a series of small towns in the Savona area (near Genoa, Italy), with a view to filming part of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix against the dramatic backdrop of a medieval Italian castle!” has “not a grain of truth in it,” a representative of the films has confirmed to TLC this morning. There’s no current plan to film in Italy.
