While Warner Bros. Pictures has
already picked up its next similar franchise, the fifth installment of the
“Harry Potter” movie series has been breaking some box office records! Although
it is darker than the first movie and even more serious, “Harry Potter and the
Order of the Phoenix”
has still driven Harry’s fans crazy. They seem to still be satisfied by the way
the filmmakers have put on the screen J.K. Rowling’s fifth fantastic story.
“Harry Potter and the Order of
the Phoenix” features a conspiracy at the
Hogwart’s School
of Wizardry and
Witchcraft that aims to cover up the existence of the evil Lord Voldemort and
to keep the students from practicing magic. That is the reason for the
children’s rebellion, which will be headed by the one and only boy wizard Harry
Potter.
It is the development of Harry
Potter that is the central theme on which the fifth movie focuses. The
character is now older and more mature, and he will even experience his first
kiss ever! Daniel Radcliffe himself, the actor that has become famous for
playing Harry Potter’s character since the beginning of the movie series, has
grown older since the first installment; he was then 11 years old and now he is
17, and he is in a continual struggle to show that he’s a grown up now.
Radcliffe has even appeared completely naked on stage while acting in “Equus”.
But to return to the movie,
everything seems to be very similar to the adventures within the other previous
movies, although there are of course new characters introduced and new
responsibilities for the main hero and his friends. However, this hasn’t seemed
to be a problem for Harry’s true fans. They just love Harry Potter and his
adventures!
“Harry Potter and the Order of
the Phoenix”
will however reveal some new things about Harry’s early life and his connection
to the evil Lord Voldermort and this seem to be the most important trigger for
the plot within the next two installments of the movie series. Another new
thing about the fifth “Harry Potter” movie that took in $74 million from its
first day of release is that it was helmed by a new director, David Yates, who
is to direct the next sequel too “Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince”.
It seems that Yates knew how to
keep Harry’s fans satisfied till next summer, when the sixth movie will be
released.
