Harry Potter 6: Delayed Til Summer 2009

Blame the writers strike for this one.

"Like every other studio, we are still feeling the repercussions of the writers strike, which impacted the readiness of scripts for other films-changing the competitive landscape for 2009 and offering new windows of opportunity that we wanted to take advantage of," he said. "We agreed the best strategy was to move 'Half-Blood Prince' to July, where it perfectly fills the gap for a major tent pole release for mid-summer"

:rolleyes:

Oh what the Frell!


What concerns me most about this is the Hogwarts kids are going to seem very long-in-the-tooth for the last movie(s).

[€uroMeinke]

They'll shoot it like My Dinner with Andre - the kids will sit down for dinner and reminisce about their exploits with Wally Shaw.

The final film (split into two parts) is still scheduled to begin principal photography in 2009. The bad thing is, they'll be filming while the previous film is premiering around the world. So don't expect any of the stars to attend the premier of Half Blood Prince.

Pffh ! That's your solution to everything.

LOL !

[Kevy Baby]

When is the Harry Potter 8 book coming out? Has anyone heard what it will be called?

[The Lovely Mrs. tod]

"Harry Potter and the Percentage of the Gross"

[ToriBear]

Yep, it really sucks that they moved it so far away and for what? Money.
:rolleyes:
Such morons.

Oh well, nothing we can do about it now.
