Okay, I was checking imdb.com last night and they have this article on there about the 5th book. It has a tiny little sneak peak, so I'll post it here.

Potter Five to Hit Shelves This Summer

The wait is over - the fifth Harry Potter novel will hit bookshelves on June 21, and it will be a bumper volume. Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix will weigh in at an incredible 255,000 words, over 50,000 words longer than Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire. The fifth installment of the immensely popular series will be released simultaneously around the world. Nigel Newton, chief executive of Bloomsbury Publishing, says, " Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix is absolutely superb and will delight all J.K. Rowling's fans. She has written a brilliant and utterly compelling new adventure." And it appears there will be a shocking surprise in store for the apprentice wizard. A brief segment of the text has been released. In it, Rowling writes, "Dumbledore lowered his hands and surveyed Harry through his half-moon glasses. 'It is time, ' he said, 'For me to tell you what I should have told you five years ago, Harry. Please sit down. I am going to tell you everything'."

I was better off not knowing this. Now I want to read the book EVEN more than I did before!

Yeah, Richard Harris died. I can't remember exactly when it was but I want to say November, a short time before the second movie came out. I wonder who they are going to use for the rest of the movies?
