Deathly Hallows Set for 2010 Release

Darth Vader reads Harry Potter

It’s time for good news/bad news here at FSR!

The good news is that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows has announced a release date. The bad news is that, after this year’s Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, fans will have to wait two years sans the lightening-scarred sorcerer.

Our BFF’s over at /film are reporting that Warner Brothers is slating Hallows for a November 2010 release. Part Two of Hallows is slated for six months later, in May 2011 – the cinematic version of pointing to the outfield bleachers before the pitch.

I imagine it’s hard for the executives at the WB to estimate how many billions of human beings will be lined up to watch the last Potter film on opening day. Homework will go undone, babies left at home without sitters, and important cancer research sitting in abandoned laboratories on that fateful day in 2011.

It’s also easy to assume that the delay is to let some of the stars work on other projects. All three majors are involved in or have already landed separate gigs, and it’s understandable if they need some breathing room.

Get excited, Rejects! Deathly Hallows is only 1,350,700 minutes away from being released!

    Its the right choice ... I imagine the Big 3 are pretty burnt out. It will only help for them to have a fresh view to HP7, and maybe bring some experience from other projects. I only hope they aren't already burnt out and it shows in HP6.
  • At this rate, the main cast will be old enough to drink legally before the movies are done.

    I think more time will give the producers more of a chance to take their time and not rush this and make the last couple of films, really good. I caught Daniel Radcliffe on PBS the other night playing Rudyard Kipling or something like that, it was okay, Kim Catrell played his mother, MILF!!!!!!!
  • Hopefully as the cast ages they'll add some nudity.
  • Wait ! I forogt to mention...

    Cole is a perv!

    OH, you're only off by about 440,000 minutes, give or take a few. =) Were lookin at a little less than 3.5 years till Deathly Hallows, which is roughly 1.8 million minutes.
