A new picture from the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie has appeared online of Frank Dillane, who plays a teenage Tom Riddle in the movie. The new picture comes with a reminder
of the ABC preview of the Potter movies which we previously
told you about.
Scenes previewed from the new movie include:
A look into the tortured past of Lord Voldemort/Tom Riddle (played by Frank Dillane), an introduction to the new Potions teacher, Professor Slughorn (Jim Broadbent), and scenes of budding love in the hallowed halls of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
David Heyman has this to say about the HBP movie:
It's different than the other films. It's not the non-stop action that some of the others are, although there is some action. It's more of an emotional film. We follow multiple stories: Harry's relationship with Ginny Weasley, Ron's relationship with Lavender Brown. … There also is Hermione's discomfort with Ron's relationship with Lavender. There's Draco Malfoy's story. And then there's Harry's relationship with (Hogwarts headmaster and professor) Dumbledore. We're following these multiple stories that enrich the canvas.

Interesting thoughts and perspective. The picture looks great. It would be nice to see the film instead, but oh well at least there is something.

That's what they should have done with book four too, followed Hermionie's story about SPEW. They left too much out of that book. As well as book five.
I'm watching the movie right now
Blessings! Hecate3fold!

Its so awesome. I really like what Heyman said only HBP is full of non-stop action as well. I think that it was a page turner like all the other ones. The only thing is it's more emotional and more in-depth.

What?? But the teenage Riddle they had in the second movie was sooooo much better looking!! Where is he!? Hehe, ok he might be to old by now to play a teenager but still. Riddle is supposed to look very handsome!

I am really excited for this movie...I like that they will focus on the relationships more because they all become really important and it will hep build up to the pain of Dumbledores death at the end!

Brilliant....But, we the fans need to see and know more. It seems as WB is either teasing or giving us the run around.

Great picture, but I can't wait till the movie comes out. They had definitely better cover the relationships accurately, or there will be a lot of upset people. (ok, at least me)

I watched off and on throughout the whole weekend and never once did I see any promotional items for HBP...only 30 promos. My timing really stank I guess. Oh well tis the busy season for me lately.

I wish there was a J.K. Rowling TV channel. I would love that and it would be all I ever watched.
