New photos from the 2009 “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” calendar surfaced online today, and include this new look at the attack on the Burrow. The scene, which has been confirmed previously by the producers of the film, shows Arthur Weasley (Mark Williams), Remus Lupin (David Thewlis) and Harry (Dan Radcliffe), with a burning building and fire all around. Also of interest is this new photo of Draco (Tom Felton) and Bellatrix (Helena Bonham Carter), with the words “Unbreakable Vow” written in the corner and some buildings behind them, possibly Spinner’s End.

Additional new photos include a look at the staff of Hogwarts, including Hagrid (Robbie Coltrane), Snape (Alan Rickman) and Professor McGonagall (Dame Maggie Smith) along with Professor Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) who features in several other photos, including this one with what looks to be the ring that is the Horcrux, this with Harry and the cave in the background, and another with Harry and some vials for the Pensieve.

Actor Tom Felton as Draco Malfoy is featured in several other photos in this new calendar, including one with Snape here, one with Filch (David Bradley) here, and a photo where he is holding a bird. Finally, you can see the back of the calendar, and UPDATE: More scans are now available, with Harry and Ginny here, and a new photo of Lovelorn Ron, here. Also new are looks at Remus Lupin, and another of Ron Weasley.

Thanks much to UHP for mailing!

Wow, I’m astonished with the lack of Hermione! Is it me or does many of the images seem like recycled photos from OOTP?

Well, I dunno….my enthusiasm is starting to wane. A picture here or there….ho hum. I’m a dyed in the wool Potter fan, and have been for years, but when I stop to think of the time between now and next July, I grow weary, and I’m starting to lose interest. And if that happens to a Potter fan, what about the uncommitted audience…..........

Not sure the call by Warner Bros. makes much sense, to be honest.

The only recycled pics seem to be the ones of Snape. OTOH, I’m thrilled by both Draco pics :D

Good pictures. I hope we get a hole bunch of pictures with hermione on them. I’m starting to think that she is not going to in the film as much as she was in the last five films. The one picture with loverlorn ron and the picture with ginny and harry I hope those are new pictures. I like them all. Espically the burrow one. Why isn’t Arthur running?

Is that the Room of Requirement in the background in the picture of Malfoy and Snape?

Um. Wow. I adore Draco, but color me unimpressed by the photos in this calendar. O_o

Seems like the only HBP we’re getting is pimping for products to buy. Not impressed, WB.

Why are all of the pics of Snape old? I mean shouldn’t he have a more prominent role being that the film is HBP?!! What gives?
