How is Harry going to finish up? Alive or dead?

Posted by Ian in Uncategorized on February 2nd, 2007

The final Harry Potter book is going to be released July 21. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” its called. No doubt we’ll be buying as soon as its out, and my daughter and I will be fighting over who reads it first.

While I think the last few Harry Potter books have been pretty longwinded and could really have done with a strong editor to keep JK Rowling’s meanderings under control, I am keen to find out how it all ends. Rowling has said she’s going to kill off at least a couple of characters, and there has been speculation that she might kill off Harry at the end. I reckon Professor Snape’s a good bet to be one who dies - he’s been on the crux of good vs evil most of the series, and my feeling is he’ll face a choice during a final confrontation between Harry and Voldemort, and will turn on the latter and die which will enable Harry to win. Not sure who else might go.

When they come to make the movie of this book, will they give Harry a view of Hermione like this one?

Daniel Radcliffe and Joanne Christie are seen in the stage play  Equus.

Its a publicity photo from the play Daniel Radcliffe is in at the moment, “Equus”. He’s diversifying from his Harry Potter role - and his involvement in the nude scenes in the play has caused a bit of kerfuffle from some parents of Harry Potter fans (remember folks, he’s an actor, not really Harry).

    I don’t think Snape’s bad. I think he’s always chosen good, and Dumbledore ordered him to do what he did.

    I bet three characters die in the last book: Harry, Voldermort, and Snape.
