Harry Potter Double FeatureThe seventh and final book in J.K. Rowling’s bestselling series is evidently just too big to be contained by a single film. The Los Angeles Times reported that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be split into two films, “one to be released in November 2010 and the second in May 2011.” David Yates will direct both movies, which will be filmed concurrently. Screenwriter Steve Kloves also returns.
“I think it’s the only way you can do it without cutting out a huge portion of the book,” said Potter star Daniel Radcliffe, who is now filming Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, due to be released November 21. “There have been compartmentalized subplots in the other books that have made them easier to cut–although those cuts were still to the horror of some fans–but the seventh book doesn’t really have any subplots. It’s one driving, pounding story from the word go.”

The ever vigilant Onomatopoeia Task Force suggests that the term should be “ka-ching”.

The extremely unhip OTF bows to your superior knowledge and groovitude. Note to self: remove Vegas comedian from slang reference file.
