The new Harry Potter movie, based off of the 5th book, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix of the series is scheduled to hit theatres July 13, 2007.
Daniel Radcliffe, the original actor cast to play Harry Potter, remains on the scene as well as Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley) and Emma Watson (Hermione Granger).
Newly cast is the actress to play Cho, the girl which in the novels, was supposed to be present in every year up until now, but has been MIA in the films. Those who also read the novels know that this year is the book in which Harry gets his first kiss, with Cho, which makes her a very important casting choice. True Harry Potter fans will be waiting for that scene.
Also introduced in the new movie is Dolores Umbridge, a perfectly detestable character, played by award winning actress Imelda Staunton who also played Mrs. Blatherwick in the movie Nanny McPhee.
The rest of the returning actors include Maggie Smith as Professor McGonagall, Gary Oldman as Sirius Black, Alan Rickman as Severus Snape, Robbie Coltrane as Hagrid, and Michael Gambon as Albus Dunbledore who has played in the series beginning with Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire.
As most Harry Potter fans hope, the fifth installment of the movie portrayal should follow that of the book very closely. As Dolores Umbridge takes control of Hogwarts, Harry’s world begins to fall apart. The question is, will Harry be able to save the day, or will he have to sacrifice the life he has been dreaming of?
Also in question is the fate of the beloved series. Will the series end after the formerly projected seven novels, or will the success drive the series on for more of Harry’s life after Hogwarts? If J.K. Rowling does decidedly end the series, will she end Harry’s life in the process? As proven in previous books in the series, Rowling will stop at nothing to shock her readers. The title of the seventh, and perhaps final, book of the series is Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, which leans toward an unhappy ending for the students of Hogwarts and the fans of the imaginative series.
However, the fans won’t be entirely without Mr. Potter if the series ends, because the three main actors for the movie portrayal have already been signed and announced for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows scheduled to enter theatres in 2008 and 2010 respectively.

Katie Leung, who plays Cho, was in the fourth film, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. She has not been MIA, as she played a large role in GoF.
I'm trying to figure out exactly just what this is. It's not quite a review because you haven't seen the film yet. It's is sort of a news /press release announcing the release of the film. As such it is not bad. It just isn't really very relevant to this particular blog. Tie the topic in to the school and Pembroke community. Who acres about the film? Many Titans do! Who? Get some reaction or further comment from them. Maybe some opinion about why they care and what they think about information "leaked" about the film.
