The first teaser for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is now up and online. Click here to watch it.

If there's a theme to this first Potter trailer, it seems to be wand waving. Everyone's waving their wand around, flailing, firing, stabbing. In the process, I think director David Yates does a pretty good job of getting his message across: There will be war. No more wandering around in a dank, dusty castle. This Harry Potter movie is trading on action and adventure in a way seen by none of the others before it.

In addition to the trailer, the official site for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is now up. Go there, watch the trailer, and check out a few screencaps from the teaser below.
