Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows to be Split into THREE Films

If your inner geek felt extra ticklish today it could be because Warner Brothers has decided to make the final Harry Potter film into three movies! The news broke this morning and I questioned the legitimacy as it is April Fools Day. However, respected Harry Potter fansite, Mugglenet, is insistent.

“We spoke to a source at Leavesden Studios, who revealed: “We’ve got to be honest. When we started shooting Deathly Hallows, none of us wanted to stop. We experienced a fan-gasm. The book is simply amazing, and we love the people we work with. Each time we shot a scene we shot way too much extra footage because we loved the content so much. Before we knew it, we had enough content to fill three films.” When the Potter production team shared this news with Warner Brothers, many higher-ups – most notably CEO Alan Horn – jumped on the opportunity to turn it into a three-part finale.”

So when will the films for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows hit? The first two installments will hit as planned in November and July but part three is said to have a two year delay and open in July of 2013!

“One source at Warner Brothers’ Burbank headquarters told us, “Mr. Horn got so excited when he heard about all the extra footage that he immediately jumped out of his chair, picked up his Looney Tunes commemorative pen, and started pretending to throw Avada Kedavra spells at other studio’s headquarters he could see out his window. He knows that other studios are gonna hate this news.”

Thoughts? Is is an April Fool’s joke? Maybe…
