Prince and Phoenix updates!
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Warner Bros. has announced that Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will open November 21, 2008.
No director has been hired yet for the sixth installment but series vet Steven Kloves will pen the screenplay adaptation of J.K. Rowling's bestselling novel.
The November bow signifies a return of sorts for the Warners franchise. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban opened in July and the upcoming installment, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, is also set for a July debut. But otherwise all the Potter films have opened in November.
In related news, set reports for the now-filming Order of the Phoenix are popping up online. HP4U.co.uk has a report on scenes being shot at Virginia Water involving the characters of Professor McGonagall, Hagrid and Slytherins Draco, Crabbe and Goyle.
Meanwhile, The-Leaky-Cauldron.org has posted spy photos of Daniel Radcliffe as Harry on the Phoenix set. The set is reportedly supposed to be Privet Drive.
