The fifth installment in the Harry Potter series, "The Order of the Phoenix," is set to begin shooting next week, Reuters reports.

All three stars from the previous wizard films, Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint will reprise their roles as teenage wizards.

British director David Yates will direct the film. It is his first time helming a "Potter" film.

Other new additions to the cast include Imelda Staunton ("Vera Drake") as the new Defense Against The Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts School.

The film is set to hit theatres next year.

The last "Potter" flick, "The Goblet of Fire" was released last November and has grossed more than $879 million worldwide.
