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. “
AGAHJJAGH! (that’s about the noise I made in really high pitch)
When this magazine comes out, that means PICTURES! And INTERVIEWS! And AHHH!! YAYYY.
There’s another photo somewhere of Harry in the same place he is in the second photo, but looking sad and having slid down the wall a bit. Oh my goodness, I CAN’T WAIT to see Dan bloom even more. His acting really impresses me.
And I’m kind of excited about them adding action in. :)) CAN’T WAIT for the news to start!! And I think I will have to get this magazine (I may end up accidentally consuming it).
WOW. This is when all the actions start. These are like teaser pictures to get us all pumped up for the trailer which I am sure is coming soon. I bet they are going to like put out a few more good pictures(at least 2) before putting out the trailer though. But im not complaining so..ya.
Oh AND i think this is after the cave seen because since there is going to be no dumbeldore funeral scene, this is probably how he looks after Dumbledore gets killed.
I agree that this is not something we’ll see in the film. It honestly looks like a studio shot.
HOWEVER, that does not make it less cool—he looks FA-BU-LICKABLE-LOUS. Especially since I know that fake blood is flavoured like mint…
Also, that picture from OotP-I swear, I don’t know why that don’t put scenes like that that we CLEARLY saw in the DVD cut scenes-I don’t care that its only a 3 second long clip—I want to see it! That was clearly taken outside the lake, where Harry’s mourning Sirius (at least, that’s my conclusion.) There was also the scene where Ron gives Harry the “your the man” fist. And then nadda on the DVDs. Its like, why do I even buy them???
Also; someone said that b/c this magazine is August, it won’t come out till then. Au contraire! Most magazines come out about a month before their labeled month, its just how they operate. So we should expect the whole of this VERY soon!
The new issue of Empire probably will come out the second week of the month IN ENGLAND. over here, teh magazines from overseas usually come out the month following or more.. (although you might find the new issues in LA or NYC?) Blah. Sigh. long wait.
Didn’t we already see that second picture? Except at the time it wasn’t official.
