Update: Now confirmed to TLC by Warner Brothers:
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix will open in the US on July 11, 2007
No reason was given to us for the change, however as Coming Soon first reported, "this will give the movie a potential big five-day opening, from Wednesday through Sunday." Readers will remember that in the UK, the OotP release date was moved one day earlier to July 12.
Thanks to everyone who has mailed!

Neil Actually to correct you Warner Bros finance it!! They dont make it! There's a difference! What do you think David Heyman job is? He's the Producer, whose job is to basically put the film together with the help of the director and scriptwriter.

Nick K Bendy I know WK is an AMERICAN company. The HP movies has always been classed as British just because WB provide the money for the films does not make them American as its been said a billion times the producers (most of them) the director, the actors and the author are all British so it makes it British. You said you should get it first cause of the WB thing well the point most people are trying to say is we should all get it at the same time not the Americans, British or the Aussies should get it first. Sorry if I was a bit nasty before that but saying all that I am not that bothered when the film comes out I will go see the film no matter what.

Tistytosty Brandy: If you get off your high horse for a moment you'll notice that OotP is made by Heyday Films. WarnerBros are merely the financiers and distributors. Ergo, it is a British film. And stop being all self-righteous at everybody; there's no need for it and it's rude.

Lizzie Ha, ha, Americans always have to be first, or else they will throw all their toys out the pram and hold their collective breath... Now wouldn't it be fun if the UK moved to the 10th, let the fun begin.

Skeeterbug73 Lizzie, I was looking forward to the Friday the 13th opening. WB wants to get bigger numbers with a longer opening weekend so that's why they are changing the date.

Becca Well, America would have to get everything first, wouldn't it? *eyeroll*

Neil hehe I can't believe I checked this up, I have too much free time :p But to be really picky about the arguement of Warner Bros being American, actual fact it was founded by four Polish brothers. So you could argue its Polish lol http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warner_Brothers_Studios

Neil "Ha, ha, Americans always have to be first, or else they will throw all their toys out the pram and hold their collective breath..." "And this isn't childish? Like any regular American has the power to get WB to change the date. " I never said that, so you can't accuse me of being childish.

Nicole What Lizzie said was childish. Why not call her out on it like you did Sasha. I know why,because Sasha is American and it's always ok to bash them. Whatever.

Neil I'm not bashing Americans, I merely said that by going on like "WE'RE #1 WE'RE#1!!! AMERICA ROCKS!!!!!!" is a very childish way to act. It's that kind of attitude that creates this tension between British and American fans, when it comes to things like who gets what first.

Abby You are all being childish! This has nothing to do with Americans vs. Brits. It just means that WB changed it. And if Brits want to see it earlier then get on a plane to America. See how easy was that now?
