Daniel Radcliffe spoke recently, between shooting scenes for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, about the the upcomng final HP installment Deathly Hallows!

In the June issue of Film Review Magazine, Harry Potter himself, Daniel Radcliffe, said the following…

On HP coming to an end…”It will be very, very odd to suddenly not be coming back to Harry Potter. And I’ll be sad to leave the character behind and not see on a daily basis the friends that I’ve made.”

On Harry’s “dark place” in this one…Harry is unhappy for a lot of this film, mainly becuase people keep trying to kill him. And his love life is awful, too. That’s what Jo [JK Rowling] does so well, combining everyday, mundane problems with this incredible other world.”

In the current film, Half-Blood Prince, the official synopsis reads, Voldemort is tightening his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds and Hogwarts is no longer the safe haven it once was. Harry suspects that dangers may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle that he knows is fast approaching.

Together they work to find the key to unlock Voldemort’s defenses and, to this end, Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague, the well-connected and unsuspecting bon vivant Professor Horace Slughorn, whom he believes holds crucial information. Meanwhile, the students are under attack from a very different adversary as teenage hormones rage across the ramparts.

Harry finds himself more and more drawn to Ginny, but so is Dean Thomas. And Lavender Brown has decided that Ron is the one for her, only she hadn’t counted on Romilda Vane’s chocolates! And then there’s Hermione, simpering with jealously but determined not to show her feelings. As romance blossoms, one student remains aloof.

He is determined to make his mark, albeit a dark one. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same again.

In Deathly Hallows, a film that is being split up into two parts, Potter attempts to bring an end to his nemesis Lord Voldemort.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince opens in theaters November 18, 2008! Deathly Hallows: Part 1 is set to bow on November 19, 2010.
