Potterdämmerung Midnight Bulletin

J.K. Rowling is ‘staggered’ by pre-release reviews, but they won’t stop fans from buying.

So far tonight…

More Star Power for HP

Continuing their stroll through the best of British actors, Warner Brothers has confirmed that Helena Bonham Carter will be playing Bellatrix Lestrange in Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix.

Still waiting for Ewan McGregor to participate!

In other HP news, it appears that there are at least two well-known authors who are trying to keep Harry Potter alive at the end of the series. John Irving and Stephen King apparently wrote to JK Rowling, asking her not to kill off the beloved wizard.

Only time will tell….

The Creator Speaks to the Fans!

Okay. We’re a bit biased towards Star Wars on this site. But we also have a lot of other fandom interests.

The one that is obsessing many of us lately is Harry Potter. So it is this Creator of which we speak.

JK Rowling (she who has launched millions of readers) invited the leaders of her two favorite fan sites to interview her during the release weekend festivities. The one-hour interview turned into two-hours that will be covered by both sites over the next week, or so.

Transcripts are the same on both sites, but reports are different. So we’ll just link you to the main page so you can catch up as you’re able.
