As reported here previously, the press launch for the release of the “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix” DVD was held in London over the weekend. The official website of actress Emma Watson (Hermione Granger) has been updated with the first photos from this event. At this link you can see photos of Emma taken by her father on the set of the films at Leavesden Studios in England.

The “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix” DVD will be released in the UK on November 12, with the North American release date set for December 11.

Hmm. Even though I do like Emma loads, I agree with you bonniewrightsbiggestfan and Ian, because I would love to see pics of squee Evanna. There seems to be a hell of a lot less media around Rup, Evanna, Bonnie, Katie, the phelps…etc. Wish we could see even a little more of em ^^

Wow. Do I really have to wait a whole month to get my DVD? I thought that was just a mistype the first time I read it. The UK and the US release dates are really 30 days apart. That just doesn’t make sense to me. Does anyone know why that is?

Yea! I’ll be out getting the DVD on the 24th (Of November that is.. why do the Americans have to wait untill Deecember?? :S)..

The 24th.. Just seems so long though…

i can hardly wait.. and than to think of it i’ve waited for about 4 months already so 2-3 weeks doesn’t seem like that much of a deal..

About the blurry Emma pictures.. they’re weird and blurry and not really ‘dvd realease’ looking (wow good description :P NOT) I want to see some real footage..

Well for everyone information the rest of the cast did attend the DVD press thingy but each of the actors did the interviews on different parts of the studio, and Emma’s dad did took pictures of the rest of the cast but unfortunally they came out too blury so they were not posted. So stop whinning and be gratefull at all that the rest of the actors were there, if you want to complain about something complaing why WB decided to make it private and make the press hold on those interviews until the DVD came out Nov, 14 or whatever.

I’m just pissed off. I want to see the other actors too. They need their share. It’s actually sweet that Emma’s dad took those pictures for us. But I want to see the main six, just like we did at the NMAs. And I especially want to see Bonnie, because we’ve seen the least of her, and after the trio, she’s the fourth most important character.

i think the pictures are cute. so what if her dad isn’t the best photographer in the world, give him a break at least he is taking the time to take photos for everyone who at least likes emma who cares if they are bad quality. plus, i get my OOtP DVD on the 14th of this month:D

@AngelHug: Does that mean, somewhere down the road (Possibly before the US Press Launch) we’ll get to see the other interviews???? That would be SWEET!

Evanna got quite a bit of exposure. Why should Emma’s site and Emma’s Dad focus on everyone but Emma?

I think these pics are great. They show a more personal side to the event.

If fans weren’t admitted to this event, who was she signing posters for? I also don’t understand why there isn’t any other pictures or press for this event.

Cool! Does that mean that there are good quality copies available for download yet?

Don’t worry, I’m sure someone’ll get me the DVD for my birthday (as it’s just before the US release) and if not, I will get it myself. Although I have to admit, I’m still not totally pleased with the way the film turned out. Harry never really goes ape-** the way he does in the book. And they always dumb down Dumbledore’s d’enoument which is usually one of the best parts of the book. In OotP, their conversation is pretty important.
