Numerous sites are reporting the release date:

the Order of the Phoenix and Ocean's Thirteen as its two major summer releases for 2007. The sixth movie, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, will be released on November 21st.Please note that no information about the movie, director or actors has been announced. We will update with any news we receive from Warner Bros. in reference to this date. Thanks to everyone who emailed.

Actually a bit sooner than I expected! But sooner is always better with Harry. I can't wait to see what they will do with HBP.

Well, I hope this is true because that would mean that we have an HP movie two years in a row, and would mean the wait for movie 7 would be shorter, and we might be able to keep the trio in for all movies =D

Oh my god... that's so cool! 2008... it's two years! My dream is to see all the actors doing all the movies and I think it would be possible (with Emma Watson she's gonna be 18 in 2008... and Hermione is having 17 in the begining of HBP).

I hope the last will follow it very quickly as the "kids" are maturing very quickly.

Wow, I'm surprised we got a release date this early!!! Because of that I guess I wouldn't be surprised if it got changed sometime before then. That would be great; my birthday's a couple weeks before that date so I could ask for passes to movie theaters for my birthday!!! Awesome, I'll probably see it so much that I'd need passes so I wouldn't go broke!!!

That's pretty fast. Can't help but hoping that they're right, but I have my doubts and am not getting my hopes up.

I does seem like a good time. I would rather have the 2008 summer release or a Christmas release but November seems cool.

Yay, just in time for my birthday! I'll be 18 too! It's good to see that they're keeping the 1 1/2 year filming schedule. That means the last movie should be coming out about May or June of 2010.

Wow, #6 already has a release date! If that is true, I would think a director should be named soon since they do so much pre-production.

That would be awesome, cause it would give Jo a time limit with the last book. That would also be great because it'd be alot of HP in two years- two movies and the last book!!

That's amazing! Assuming that the date for OotP is still set for 7/13/07, this is fantastic! We'll only have to wait a year and a half for it! That's not bad at all! :D Looking forward to both movies!

*Sixth Book Spoiler WARNING*
I can't believe that the HBP is coming out in two years! It seems like such a long time to wait. I think that it will be hard to watch the greatest wizard of all time's death!

Wow...That seems pretty early. It's good that we'll have two Potter movies in a roll...That way the actors won't be too old for their roles. But do we even have a date for the Order of the Phoenix?
