Leading up to the previously mentioned upcoming interview with J.K. Rowling and Stephen Fry, Bloomsbury has released a press release about Living With Harry, a segment to be featured on on BBC Radio 4. In addition to mentioning the seventh Harry Potter book, Rowling talks about her favorite author and Fry talks about how he performs the voices of the characters. Here's a tidbit of the Bloomsbury press release:

Stephen Fry asks about the relationship between Harry and Voldemort and J.K. Rowling firmly rejects the suggestion that he is Harry's father ("that's a Star Wars question") and promises they won't turn out to be Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker.

Reminder: Be sure to tune into BBC Radio 4opens in new window Saturday, December 10th, 9:00 AM (GMT) to hear the full half-hour interview. Additionally, you can listen to BBC 4 live on their website streamopens in new window, if you have Real Player and happen to be awake at that hour.

I'll be sure to tune in on the radio interview. It's going to be great. I'm so eager to know what's going to happen to Harry at the end of the series. I hope we'll get a hint as to what may occur in the seventh book.

Happy to see that it won't be a star wars copy, I wouldn't find it funny if we see that Voldemort is the real father of Harry Potter... James and Harry are the carbon copy of each other so it can't be voldemort' son.

PowerGranger says:

Hee hee...I think JKR addressed that whole "Harry...I am your father!" thing once before, didn't she? Anyway, that wouldn't fly in any way with the plot, even if it wasn't already "too Star Wars-y" so no surprise there. I cannot wait for this interview!

I can hardly wait. It would be fun if she gave us some cluse or some idea on when Book 7 will be released. However, she seems very fearful of giving it away so she may just clam up from now on.
