Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Pushed Up 2 Days

Muggles and wizards alike can see their favorite wizard's new film installment a few days early. ERC Box Office is reporting that Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince has been moved from a Friday, July 17 release to a Wednesday, July 15 release.

Warner Bros. also released the last film in the series, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, on a Wednesday as well, to the tune of $44 million on opening day and $139 million for the five-day frame. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was said to open even bigger, due to the lack of competition.

It was also reported by various outlets that the new trailer for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will be available on Thursday, April 16, so be sure to keep your eyes open for that, as we'll post the new trailer as soon as we possible can.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was released July 15th, 2009 and stars Daniel Radcliffe, Michael Gambon, Dave Legeno, Elarica Gallacher, Jim Broadbent, Geraldine Somerville, Bonnie Wright, Julie Walters. The film is directed by David Yates.

    Saquin Turok X, I just hope they spent that extra time making it better. They really need a strong installment this time if they want a huge following for Deathly Hallows.

    The point is for a bigger box officer weekend take. As silly as that sounds, it's true.
