Harry Potter mini-film coming to Universal Studios

Remember when J.K. Rowling said she was finished writing for the Harry Potter series? Turns out that lasted about as long as Jay-Z's retirement. It appears Rowling hasn't done away with her golden goose just yet, because the UK's Sunday Mirror is reporting that the she's written a brand new Harry Potter story to be adapted into a mini-film for the soon-to-open theme park at Universal Studios.

All of the film's stars are on board, including Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson. The movie will be filmed prior to the filming of The Deathly Hollows, the final installment in the Harry Potter saga. There will also be extra sequences shot which will be used for the rides at the park.
