There's a lot of speculation that what happened the
night that the Potters were killed at Godric's Hollow
may be the Chapter One of HBP that's been 13 years in
the brewing.  If this is correct then I will 
be very interested in looking out for any hints that
the person who makes the final stand against Voldemort
to protect Lily and Harry isn't James.  (This is a
theory that arose from the flashback in the 
PS/SS film. As JKR wrote this herself, according to an
interview in Empire Online with Columbus, I take it as
canon.  In the flashback Geraldine Somerville and a
child are shown, but the audience just sees the
black-clad arm and hand of the person standing in
front of her.  Also the cast list is in order of
appearance but Adrian Rawlins is not credited
alongside Geraldine Somerville.  He is credited much
later.  This implies that Adrian Rawlins only played
James in the 
Mirror of Erised scene, not the Godric's Hollow
scene.) 


Julie replies:

You bring up a lot of interesting points.  Whoever the
person may or may not have been in the movie scene,
the person that was killed before Lily was James. 
THis is from the revised version of GOF.  (Who else
was freaked out when they read that Lily was killed
before James when they first read it.  What kind of
scenarios were going through your head.)

Lily came out of voldemort's wand and then James came
out.  Maybe there was someone else there defending
them but didn't die, but Voldemort killed James and
then before he killed someone else, he killed Lily.
