Potter Watch: Actress who portrays Bellatrix Lestrange gives us the scoop on upcoming films



As many of you know, the last of the Harry Potter books to be filmed will actually be done as two movies - one released later this year in November and the second half in July 2011. One of the big mysteries is "where is the film going to be split?" This interview with actress Helena Bonham Carter, who portrays the wicked Bellatrix Lestrange, give us the scoop and it appears that the split may be when Harry, Hermione, and Ron are captured by the Snatchers and taken to Malfoy Manner. That would be an excellent place to split the film - a natural cliffhanger. And the final film would open up at one of the most dramatic scenes in the book. Only nine months until we find out!

As the ongoing disaster for Toyota has played out, I kept hearing. the CEO's name and thought it sounded like a Harry Potter-esque spell: Akio Toyoda. What might that spell do? (You're the expert!)

I think it might summon to me a new car, which would be very nice, even if the breaks don't work.

Got it. :) Thanks, Anon, for your eagle eye! You wouldn't by chance be Miz Johnson, my 4th grade teacher?
