An article on The Hollywood Reporter's Heat Vision blog states thatopens in new window Warner Brothers is planning on releasing both parts of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in 3D.

Early 3D-conversion tests on Warners’ remake of “Clash of the Titans” have gone so well that -- combined with boosted enthusiasm for 3D in the wake of the “Avatar” tsunami -- the Burbank studio has decided to release not only “Titans” but also the two-part “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” in 3D.

Conversion expenses have been coming down, so each film will cost just $5 million to convert into 3D.

Warners also will absorb an additional $5 million expense per pic to pay for 3D glasses for exhibitors handling the movies.

Whether or not you agree with a decision like this, no one can deny the time of 3D in movies is upon us, and adding it to the most successful film franchise of all-time would seem like a smart financial decision.
