Warner Bros. has announced that it will split the last Harry Potter book, Deathly Hallows, into two films, so that as much of the (somewhat bloated) content can be put up on screen (and, to be sure, profited from) as possible.
Part I will appear in 2010, Part II in 2011. The next film, Half-Blood Prince, hits the screens in November of this year.
Hmmm, well, the first part will be fairly boring and the second part will seem like you stepped in to the middle Bond Movie Chase scene as filtered through a Hitchcockian lense.
Should be interesting to see at least.
