>From Daily Mail:
Harry Potter fans are set to get a double treat in the film of the
final story and movie makers are set to double their money..
Crew working on the sixth Potter film, Harry Potter And The
Half-Blood Prince, have been told J.K. Rowling's seventh novel, Harry
Potter And The Deathly Hallows, will be released in two halves.
For film-makers Warner Bros, whose first five Potter films have
made £2.5billion in box office receipts more than any other movie
series it could mean a £500million bonus in ticket sales.
But sources insist the reason behind the two-movie plan is artistic rather than financial.
The books got progressively longer the first, the Philosopher's
Stone, had 223 pages while Deathly Hallows has 776 and fans have
complained chunks of later novels have been left out of films.
A film source said: "There's so much to fit that the view is the last
movie should be in two halves. There is a huge battle when Harry,
played by Daniel Radcliffe, takes on Voldemort that needs to be done
really well."
And Ms Rowling points out on her website: "It is simply
impossible to incorporate every storyline into a film under four hours
long."
At Warner Bros, who are rumoured to be thinking of Oscars and
a big-name director such as Steven Spielberg for the final film, a
spokesman said:
"People are discussing all possibilities."
>From HPANA.com:
In a new interview with actor Timothy Spall, Spall confirms that he will be making an appearance in the last two Harry Potter movies, Half-Blood Prince and Deathly Hallows
Well I'm actually.... yes... I'm in the next one. And I'm also in
the one at the end - I have a very big scene in that. I think they
might be shooting two of them back-to-back - hard to know though, what
with this writer's strike and all. They're shooting the penultimate one
at the moment - which I have a brief appearance in it. I should be
doing that soon.
What do you think?....humhhh :). Spielberg? 2 DH movies? Well...
