>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...
