Empireonline.com has now launched a preview of the new edition of their magazine, which features an in-depth preview of the upcoming Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince film. The cover features a brand new photo of a bloodied and tattered looking Dan Radcliffe as Harry Potter, which you can see here via this link. Harry’s glasses are cracked and the headline reads “Bloody Hell: Harry Comes Out Fighting.”

There is also an excerpt of the preview contained in this special magazine viewer available via this link (please allow for load time), which shows a second photo of a reflective Harry, standing in the corridors of Hogwarts. The preview excerpt reads “Dark times lie ahead for everybody’s favorite bespectaled wizard as he enters his penultimate year at Hogwarts. Having dealt with a tragic loss, a repeatedly resurrected nemesis and the awkward onset of puberty, Harry Potter’s six big screen outing finds him entering into a new and fateful stage of his life. We talk to cast and crew about making magic, floating corpses and approaching the saga’s end. “

Thanks Alejandro!

I am SO, SO excited right now. That picture is awesome. Awesome. The anticipation is tedious, but worth it at the same time.

Defiantly the most interesting picture I’ve seen From all the leaked pics we’ve seen. I’d say it’s probably for the battle at the end or just was the cave seen.

As for the Teaser Trailer I’m hoping for The Dark Knight Too, but we can’t forget about Comic Con.

When I saw “New ‘Half-Blood Prince’ Preview” I nearly broke my neck and hand and whatever trying to get to this as fast as I could ! Lol. :) I thought it was a video or something. (*I wish!) Anyway, yes, the trailer is coming…. All my hope and faith goes towards The Dark Knight. & if the trailer isn’t with that … I’ve no idea how my hope & faith is going to come back. :(

This picture is probably a view of Harry we won’t see in the film. Anybody remember the picture of a tearful Harry outside with a gash in his head? We didn’t see that in the film. Besides, he was just as bloody in film 1.

I just hope HBP isn’t a disappointment like the end of OotP (specifically all the DoM). No, it’s not what they cut out, but how Yates handled it. The fight was easily the most underwhelming action scene and climax in the series (maybe because the best shots were seen in every ad). I walked out very disappointed. I just hope Yates finds his footing and delivers an ending to this franchise that will put the Potter films with another modern classic, The Lord of the Rings.

That pic is awesome!! Very cool, I really like how Harry looks. I noticed Daniel shows powerfull emotions in all the pics we’ve seen, and that’s not easy, so kudos to him, he is doing a great work.

I think the picture of dan and is cracked glasses is from the burrow scene. And for the second picture it looks like dan is wearing his hogwarts overcoat. Can anyone tell me if you can tell if his eyes are closed. I think the picture is from Dumbledore’s funeral.

I think the trailer will be released with the dark knight. Since we already have the teaser poster they might as well give us a teaser trailer soon. I hope it’s like 2 to 3 minutes long.

“We talk to cast and crew about making magic, floating corpses....” So … inferi then !? Awesome. (:

@ Will – wow. I’ve never seen that picture of Dan / Harry. That’s a really sad photo. I just wished they would have put that in …. :(
