Warner Bros. has updated their 2008 Preview Press Kit with a description of the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie and a picture
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.

I just thought i would add that i think his haircut is sooooo much better than it was in OotP. I am glad it is a little longer, but it is not too long. PERFECT!!!

...tragedy lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same again...
When I read that sentence, I had this sudden emotional rush - seriously, I always feel sad every time I read about the part where Dumbledore dies, and the sentence above is simply accurate - Hogwarts will never be the same without him...
I really hope the movie turns out great. It's my favourite book so I hope I can say the same for the movie when it comes out next year.

That's a very confusing blurb that WB put out. Gives a lot of plot away. And would someone tell them about "spellcheck"?

OK, Does anyone else find the word "simpering" insulting, degrading & otherwise just plain WRONG, when talking about Hermione? I would say sizzling or simmering would be more appropriate!

I should not have read that because it just makes it that much harder to wait until next November. Harry looks great though! I love that their keeping with OotP looks... all the cast looked great in that movie!

They make it sound like Romilda Vane intentionally gave the love potion chocolates to Ron. They making it seems like romance is the main thing about the story. I guess there is more romance in this book than the others but I hope they do not leave out important plot points just to focus on the romance in the story.
