DH FilmAs readers will recall, last month we told you that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows would be made in two films, with the LA Times stating the first of the films was due out in November of 2010. Thanks to Coming Soon who let us know they can now report an exact date for the release of the first of these films: November 19, 2010.UPDATE: This date has also been officially confirmed to us by Warner Bros. While no date for the second of the “Deathly Hallows” films is yet available, the LA Times previously stated May, 2011, and in their official press release, WB said to look for the film in Summer, 2011.
A reminder that both Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows films will be directed by David Yates, with Steve Kloves as screenwriter , David Heyman producing, and will star Dan Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson among others.
Thanks to Coming Soon and WB!

That seems so far away but yet so close. I was hoping for the theme park and the movie to open on the same day.
People are complaining that the 2-year gap is too long, but what did everyone expect? I’d be VERY worried if it was any shorter than that, because there’s no way they could film the whole of Deathly Hallows in the same time span that they filmed the other movies. I mean, it’s DH. AND they’re going to include a lot more (I hope). So 2 year sounds about right. I’m sure it’s going to be totally worth it… and seriously, a 6 months gap between the films is not that long.
I’m concerned that the release of Part II might be on my birthday, though. That’d be horrible. I’m so sure I’ll cry, and I don’t want to cry on my birthday.
Oh, I forgot to say – great news! It’s good to have a release date so early. =)
Not sure why people thing this is so long. It is following the exact same pattern they have been following in the release schedule all along. It always goes, short time period between releases and then long time period between releases. Movies 1 and 2 where a short period (1 year), movies 2 and 3 where a long period (1 year, 7 months), movies 3 and 4 a short period (1 year, 5 months), movies 4 and 5 a long period (1 year, 8 months), 5 and 6 a short period (1 year, 4 months), movies 6 and 7p1 a long period (2 years) and finally movies 7p1 and 7p2 a short period (6 or so months). So really all we are waiting is about 3 or 4 months longer than usual for the same pattern.
No way! Thats way to long. Every other film has been 1 1/2 between at most! Its just to long. Im bitter! I look forward to a movie once a year. Im sad :(
Notice how they said “Dan, Rupert, and Emma”. They must think that Rupe is more important than Emma so that’s good to know because he needs to be more involved. cough cough not getting his lines stolen cough cough
Roll on Harry Potter Reloaded. I’ll watch HBP out of curiosity but I won’t be watching the last films. The selection of David Yates, who must have been at best third or fourth or fifth choice, is very lazy filmmaking from people who should know better. Yates doesn’t do epic, he does TV. He is going to need some very good VFX people behind him, and I certainly don’t mean the ones he had for Grawp in OoTP, if he is going to even survive as director of these films, let alone get them done on time and within budget.
Sad too that by dumping these films in the dull November period, they never get a chance to shine in the blockbuster season. Potter on film will go out with a whimper.
AHHHHHH!!! 2 Years!!!! I’m happy this is going to last for so long but…2 years is a loooooonnnggg wait! Ah, well 2 years in the name of Potter is okay , I suppose!!! So excited!!!! >.<
Two years away…..I can handle that! That just means more Harry Potter time for this nerd! YIPEEEEE!!!!!
whaaaaaat i don’t think i can wait that long! but i will try! thaaaaaaaanks for the news!
!!!!can’t wait till nov of this year! i don’t know how i will wait till nov of 2010!!!!!
Whooo and hooo! What a fabulous way to celebrate my birthday. Do we think I can get my friends to dress up for my 43rd birthday and go to the movie? LMAO
I think they should release them at the same time because I cant wait 6 months! Maybe I will just wait till the summer of 2011 to watch them at the same time….
