THE fifth of J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series is being turned into a film even as you are reading this and is set for release on July 7, 2007. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix – directed by David Yates – started filming early this year with a break in between so the actors could take exams before filming resumed in July.
Last we saw Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) and his two best friends (Rupert Grint and Emma Watson) growing up a little – Harry coming face to face with Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes) and finding a girl he likes namely Cho Chang (Katie Leung). In the book Harry finally has his first kiss with her, and from reports on the Net, actress Leung has said this happens in the movie too. In typical teen fashion, Harry gets a bit more rebellious and obviously has got girls on his mind since he’s 15 years old. Harry the nice guy takes a back seat as the teenager has a lot of anger in him – everyone seems to be pissing him off.
