Harry Potter 8 Possible?

By Josh Tyler: 2008-01-14 00:28:29
Harry Potter 8 Possible? The books may have stopped at number seven, but it looks like the Harry Potter movies may make it all the way to number 8. The Daily Mail claims that they’ve heard from the crew working on Harry Potter 6 that the seventh book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is being split up into two, separate films.

With as much money as the Potter films have made for Warner Brothers it’s no surprise that they’d want to drag this thing out as long as they can. It’s not all that different from New Line Cinema’s plans for their impending movie-version of The Hobbit, which they’re stretching out into two films. In the case of The Hobbit, it’s a somewhat baffling decision since the book itself probably doesn’t warrant it. I haven’t read Rowling's seventh book, so I’ll have to leave to you Potter-heads to tell me whether or not there’s enough material in Deathly Hallows to warrant this. The Mail’s sources say it’s being done for artistic reasons, but then that’s what Hollywood always says whenever they’re doing something in order to buy another mansion.

Buying one of those Potter funded mansions may be Spielberg, who The Mail claims may be one of the people up to direct it. Well, they sort of claim it. What they actually say is that the WB is “rumoured to be thinking of Oscars and a big-name director such as Steven Spielberg for the final film.” A rumor which they started. A director “such as Steven Spielberg” really could mean just about anything, from Michael Bay to Guillermo del Toro to… shudder… the return of Christopher Columbus. Spielberg on the other hand, is usually pretty busy.
