A Different Spin on the Prophecy in the Harry Potter Books

There's a certain prophecy in Harry Potter mythos that really sealed the deal between Voldemort and Harry Potter. It goes "And either must die at the hand of the other, for neither can live while the other survives."

Obviously if you've seen the movie and read the book, you know that Harry Potter established a connection which made the plot a bit more interesting for J.K. Rowling's favorite creation. But one fanboy (or fangirl) had a different interpretation of everything and that got shared on Tumblr.

Here's the slideshow.

It's a very interesting take on something that had weight in the entire story. If this would have been the case, it would make for interesting stories past the seven books. 

Warner Bros. Announces Expanded Creative Partnership with J.K. Rowling

(Burbank, CA and London– September 12, 2013) – Warner Bros. Entertainment today announced an expanded creative partnership with world-renowned, best-selling author J.K. Rowling. At the center of the partnership is a new film series from Rowling’s world of witches and wizards, inspired by Harry Potter’s Hogwarts textbook “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” and the adventures of the book’s fictitious author, Newt Scamander. The announcement was made by Kevin Tsujihara, Chief Executive Officer, Warner Bros. Entertainment.

“Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” will be an original story and will mark Rowling’s screenwriting debut. It is planned as the first picture in a new film series. Set in the wizarding world, the story will feature magical creatures and characters, some of which will be familiar to devoted Harry Potter fans.

“It all started when Warner Bros. came to me with the suggestion of turning ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ into a film,” said Rowling. “I thought it was a fun idea, but the idea of seeing Newt Scamander, the supposed author of ‘Fantastic Beasts,’ realized by another writer was difficult. Having lived for so long in my fictional universe, I feel very protective of it and I already knew a lot about Newt. As hard-core Harry Potter fans will know, I liked him so much that I even married his grandson, Rolf, to one of my favourite characters from the Harry Potter series, Luna Lovegood.
“As I considered Warners’ proposal, an idea took shape that I couldn’t dislodge. That is how I ended up pitching my own idea for a film to Warner Bros.

“Although it will be set in the worldwide community of witches and wizards where I was so happy for seventeen years, ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ is neither a prequel nor a sequel to the Harry Potter series, but an extension of the wizarding world,” added Rowling. “The laws and customs of the hidden magical society will be familiar to anyone who has read the Harry Potter books or seen the films, but Newt’s story will start in New York, seventy years before Harry’s gets underway.

“I particularly want to thank Kevin Tsujihara of Warner Bros. for his support in this project, which would not have happened without him. I always said that I would only revisit the wizarding world if I had an idea that I was really excited about and this is it,” said Rowling.

“We are incredibly honored that Jo has chosen to partner with Warner Bros. on this exciting new exploration of the world of wizardry which has been tremendously successful across all of our businesses,” said Tsujihara. “She is an extraordinary writer, who ignited a reading revolution around the world, which then became an unprecedented film phenomenon. We know that audiences will be as excited as we are to see what her brilliant and boundless imagination conjures up for us.”

In addition to the film series, “Fantastic Beasts” will also be developed across the Studio’s video game, consumer products and digital initiatives businesses, including enhanced links with Pottermore.com, Rowling’s digital online experience built around the Harry Potter stories.

The Studio’s expanded partnership with Rowling also covers the continued expansion of its Harry Potter activities, including the wonderful Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme parks in conjunction with partner Universal Parks and Resorts (currently in Orlando, FL; opening in Hollywood, CA and Osaka, Japan), digital initiatives (including Pottermore), video games, consumer products and visitor attractions.

In addition, Warner Bros. will serve as the worldwide TV distributor (excluding the U.K.) of J.K. Rowling’s upcoming television adaptation for the BBC of “The Casual Vacancy,” her best-selling first novel aimed at adult audiences. This miniseries begins production in 2014.

The relationship will be managed in London by Neil Blair of The Blair Partnership, Rowling’s literary agency, and Josh Berger, President & Managing Director, Warner Bros. UK, Ireland and Spain, who will serve as Warner Bros.’ chief business contact for all J.K. Rowling initiatives going forward.

Emma Watson Channels Pretty Woman in GQ Cover

In a continued bid to tell the rest of the world that little Hermione Granger has already grown up, Emma Watson was snapped up in the cover for GQ.

I really liked the first one because she looked really desirable there but the second photo was uggh.

What Happened to Harry Potter and the Gang Post-Deathly Hallows?

Ever wonder what Harry Pottter or better yet Daniel Radcliffe and the rest of the Scooby Gang Hogwarts crew looked like when they graduated from Hogwarts and started doing, you know, real world stuff. 

Harry Potter

We've already expected that Harry'd become an auror. If I remember correctly, the book's epilogue even states that Harry became one of the best Aurors in England.  (Daniel Radcliffe)

Oh and yes, I've featured Harry and Draco before FYI lang.

Ginny Weasley

Here's another cool photo of actress Bonnie Wright in character as Ginny Weasley, Harry Potter's wife and also a successful Chaser for Gryfindor. 

A Brief Look at an Older Auror Harry Potter

Not sure where these images originated from but I'm definitely calling it cool. These two photos depict an older Daniel Radcliffe and Tom Felton post- Harry Potter.

Okay, we know for a fact that Harry Potter became an auror (or Dark Wizard and witch hunters) by the end of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows but we never got any information stating that Draco became a doctor. That or I'm just off with my stocked knowledge on Harry Potter lore.

Regardless, photo is cool and I suddenly want what Harry's wearing. 'scool eh. Also, MORE DETAILS PLEASE!
