Warner Bros. has updated their 2008 Preview Press Kit with a description of the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie and a pictureopens in new window of Daniel Radcliffe as Harry.

HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE
November 21

(Warner Bros. Pictures)

Director: David Yates
Writer: Steve Kloves
Producers: David Heyman, David Barron

Cast: Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, Helena Bonham Carter, David Bradley, Jim Broadbent, Jessie Cave, Robbie Coltrane, Warwick Davis, Frank Dillane, Tom Felton, Michael Gambon, Matthew Lewis, Evanna Lynch, Helen McCrory, Alan Rickman, Maggie Smith, Natalia Tena, Hero Fiennes Tiffin, Julie Walters, David Thewlis, Bonnie Wright
Fantasy Adventure. Voldemort is tightening his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds and Hogwarts is no longer the safe haven it once was. Harry suspects that dangers may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle that he knows is fast approaching. Together they work to find the key to unlock Voldemort's defenses and, to this end, Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague, the well-connected and unsuspecting bon vivant Professor Horace Slughorn, whom he believes holds crucial information. Meanwhile, the students are under attack from a very different adversary as teenage hormones rage across the ramparts. Harry finds himself more and more drawn to Ginny, but so is Dean Thomas. And Lavender Brown has decided that Ron is the one for her, only she hadn't counted on Romilda Vane's chocolates! And then there's Hermione, simpering with jealously but determined not to show her feelings. As romance blossoms, one student remains aloof. He is determined to make his mark, albeit a dark one. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same again.

Cute, but he looks rather young (not that he is old already). Like his first appearance back in movie 2

Sounds superb! Looks superb! It's been gone for a few months, but I think I've just gotten bit by the Potter Bug again. It's a good feeling.

That is fantastic!!! I can't believe they've already released the first photo. I think Harry's holding the Prince's book along with the Marauder's Map.

Muggle clothes... the cloak and wand suit him better, assuredly. Of course he doesn't really look 16, but even so he's definitely done for the character. I might attend the premiere in London since I'm planning to leave as an erasmus student next year.

I cant wait for the movie to come! But Daniel's hair is never the way its supposed to be. That haircut makes him look younger than he is and its not that attractive.... well you all don't have to listen to me, I'm just a blathering idiot.
