Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince has been chosen for this year's Royal Film Performance.The sixth Potter instalment will receive its European premiere in front of a yet-to-be announced member of the Royal Family on 17 November.
Actors Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint reprise their roles, while Jim Broadbent joins the cast.
Last year's Royal Film Performance was cancelled amid controversy about the chosen movie, Brick Lane.
Protestors claimed the film, based on Monica Ali's novel, portrayed residents of London's Brick Lane as uneducated.
A royal spokesman said the controversy had been taken into account, but it had also been impossible to find a date for The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall to attend a screening.
It marked the first time the annual gala had been scrapped since 1958.
