Here's a thread for you Harry Potter lovers out there to discuss the final 2 movies in the Harry Potter series, The Deathly Hallows, Part 1 due for release November 2010 and Part 2 due for release July 2011.
Here's a few recent news articles on the project:
-Bill Nighy discusses Scrimgeour and Dumbledore's will in an interview with ScifiWire.
-David Heyman reveals the Battle of Hogwarts will last about 30 minutes to Collider.com.
-Dan Radcliffe talks to MTV about Gary Oldman's return in Deathly Hallows.
According to JWFan.net, Nicholas Hooper will not return to score Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Hooper has composed the soundtracks for both Order of the Phoenix and Half-Blood Prince. The post states that the films have put "too great a strain on his family life" and that he believes a "certain composer" [John Williams] should complete the series he started.
In recent days, it has been confirmed that Jim Broadbent and Imelda Staunton will reprise their roles as Slughorn and Umbridge, respectively, in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The BBC confirmed Broadbent's return in this interview, where Broadbent talks about working with the cast of the Potter films. David Heyman confirmed Imelda Staunton's return during his Q&A session in Los Angeles. Here's the audio.

Has CBn got any other Harry Potter fans?
I've discovered the books again for the first time in years. (Just completed the Philosophers Stone, now in fact)
I've moving swiftly on to the Chamber of Secrets.
Compared the the books, the films are dire, BUT they're good entertainment (Even though the lead star is talentless) I can't wait for the Half Blood Prince.
Anyway....
I was wondering if CBn had any other Potter followers, preferably toward the books, but the films are up for discussion aswell.
PS. Severus Snape FTW!!!!
