It seems a bit premature to announce so categorically that the date for HBP's release would be November 21, 2008. Until we hear directly from Warner Bros. themselves, I will treat this info as a rumor.

I doubt it. They have to look for a director first and thenm all the new cast needs to be set. I wouldn't mind Mr Shayalaman because he did a good job with lady in the water.

Oh my god 2008 isnt that far away i didnt expect HBP to be out until 2009 at least!! It doesnt seem likely that they'll finish that soon though, with all the other movies theyve been two years apart!!! it seems like GOF Just came out and already theyre making OOTP AND HBP!!! but really exiting if they can pull it off and still do a really good job!!!! thats great getting two (or 3 in some cases) HP movies in three years!!!!

How exciting! now we know when the 6th one comes out! If the trend of movie and books continue we can safely assume the 7th book will be out in 2007 so good luck!!

Yeah, that date makes perfect sense. I bet they could get it out a month or two earlier ; ) haha, but that's okay. I seriously am dying to see HBP movie, and Ootp hasn't even come out yet!

Wow! That's way earlier than I expected it to come out! That would be awesome, though. The fifth movie should be really good, but the sixth movie should be great. :D

Thanks! I don't think I heard anything about over here. I love Oceans 11 and Oceans 12 (But a bit less).

WHAT?!?! That's almost impossible. With OotP coming out July 2007, and Daniel doing theater after OotP.. how is he gonna get to film HBP by November 2008? But I guess according to the trends that the movies have been coming out.. it has potentials.

That would be completely awesome if it was november 2008. Then it would be a year between films! Yay! Maybe now the cast is getting older and can work normal hours it will be quicker to film.

That is awesome, but won't they a be a little old. Rupert will be about 21, Dan 19, and Emma 18 for the seventh. Though it is pretty soon for the sixth movie yeah!
