Possible New Photo of the Cave Scene on "Half-Blood Prince" Calendar

HBP Film

There is a photo of what may be the cave scene on the cover of a 2009 Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince calendar. In this photo found on the Megacalendar website, you can see a large photo of Dan Radcliffe as Harry, and down in the corner you can see a very small photo of what looks like Dumbledore and Harry in the cave, standing before some sort of rock formation or perhaps the basin area for the potion. As there have been mulitple fake posters and photos making the rounds, purporting to show the cave, it is also of note that many websites (and our own Cauldron shop) now have the HBP 2009 calendars for pre-order, however none, save this website, are showing an official cover from the publishers Andrews McMeel. We are working to confirm this is an official photo, and will update with more when we can.

Thanks to Daniel for emailing!

Really really cool, it looks amazing. The cave is the scene I’m most looking foward to watch. I hope that calendar is not fake becaue I like both Harry and the cave pic.

The cave scene is awesome. The picture of Dan Radcliffe/Harry in the foreground is doctored, as he does not have a cleft chin.

That’s not how the cave scene is described. The cave is said to be vast, and at the center of the lake all you can see is blackness. The edge of the lake is way to close to the island that should be in the center of the lake, and that’s no lake either.

FAAAaaaAAAKE!

Besides the fakeness – the Harry Potter Man is just not that sloppy with releasing photos of important scenes in upcoming movies.

Amazing! the cave exceeds my expectations! It’s quite bigger than I imagined it. I hope it’s real!

It mustn’t be the cave. it could be outside, when they arrive.

I dont know if I should believe its real, only time will tell … I hope there will be a teaser soon …

it would be bad marketing otherwise

I love the cave, almost exactly how i pictured it, but then harry on the left just ruins it, because like everyone has said he looks fake, way too photoshopped for my taste…

Um, Dan does have a cleft chin. Look at other photos of him.

I’m not saying the big photo hasn’t been worked on, I’m just saying he’s got a dimple in his chin.

Sigh, I hope that’s what the cave scene looks like because it is awesome!

What? It’s weird how so many people think it looks real…. It kind of looks fake to me. :( But hopefully this is real because the cave looks cool. But the people …. idk. That other fake poster looked better. (the one with DD & Harry standing)

the more i look at that, the more i think it’s not dumbledore and harry but it’s young tom riddle when he would take another kid into the cave
