The 6th Harry Potter movie’s release date has been moved back

The release date for the movie based on J K Rowling’s 6th Harry Potter Book, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, has been moved back to July 17, 2009 from its original November 21, 2008 date.

Warner Bros gave two reasons for the date change:
1) summer is “an ideal window” for a big family releases (where two HP movies previously debuted), and;
2) the writers’ strike earlier this year “impacted the readiness of scripts for other films,” and changed the competitive movie release landscape, thus affording the studio new opportunities for 2009.

According to Shelf Awareness, Warner Bros said that the production schedule for Half-Blood Prince and other forthcoming HP movies remains the same, and is not affected by this date change. Production begins on the two-part movie adaptation of the final book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, in February 2009.
