Several hours after finally seeing the
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince trailer on the big screen, I hear it has been pushed back another season. Disney argued to push
Bolt up to the 21st, but now Stephanie Meyer’s
Twilight is also jumping to premiere.
It’ll either be good or send us into withdrawals waiting for the Harry Potter release.

The heavily anticipated, fan-frenzied movie Twilight has been bumped up from its December 12, 2008 release and will now open on November 21. Explaining the move Summit says, “When Warner Bros. decided to move HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE to the summer of 2009, we saw a unique opportunity to slot in our film which has been gaining tremendous awareness and momentum over the past several months,” said Rob Friedman, Co-Chairman and CEO of Summit Entertainment. “We by no means are trying to fill the shoes of the incredible POTTER franchise for 2008, rather we are just looking to bring the fans of Stephenie Meyer’s incredible book series the film as soon possible from a programming perspective.”
