Boiled up by the recent announcement of the moving back of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" release date, the fans of the boy wizard fight back the decision by any means they know of.

In their effort to make sure Warner Bros. understand they don't want the delay release, many of them have been rallying to persuade the studio's executives to change their mind.

Doing every way they can, some made petitions both online and off. One of the online petitions reportedly has collected about 35,000 digital signatures, while a campaign by Dumbledore's Army prompted fans to write down their concerns. Another form of protests is also offered as the fans plot to take the protest to the street outside Warner's corporate headquarters in New York. A Facebook group named The Delay of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Has Ruined My Life has gone even further by planning a nationwide boycott of the movie.

Rupert Grint is terrified at the prospect of kissing Emma Watson in the final Harry Potter film - because his co-star is like a sister.

The teenage stars have worked together since they were cast in the first installment of the boy wizard franchise, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, which was released in 2001.

Now the pair will have to pucker up in the final film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - and Grint admits he is dreading it.

He says, "The kiss will be quite uncomfortable.

"Emma's like a sister to me so it's going to be, like, really, really weird."

The next installment in the Harry Potter film franchise has been chosen to feature at this year's Royal Film Performance.

The sixth part of the wizard series - Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince - will have its European premiere in November in front of a member of the U.K. royal family.

The annual gala was cancelled last year after the chosen film, Brick Lane, was deemed too controversial - after allegedly upsetting some members of London's Asian community.

The Prince of Wales and his wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, decided to cancel their appearance in a bid to stop any further upset - it was the first time the event had been scrapped since 1958.

Harry Potter stars Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint are all expected to attend the Royal premiere in London.

We announced it earlier today, and now it’s finally here. AOL just premiered the teaser trailer for David Yates’ upcoming “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince,” and although it’s pretty short, it sure looks awesome. That’s right, Harry still seems to have what it takes to captivate his audience.  

Starring Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint, among many others, this sixth installment in the popular series follows Harry as he learns more about Voldemort’s past. As usual, the film looks darker than its predecessor, and judging by this trailer, it will boast plenty of dazzling action and gorgeous special effects.

‘Half-Blood Prince” opens everywhere Nov. 21, 2008. Let us know what you think of the footage.

Actor Paul Giamatti's favourite movie experience was on the set of a little-known British film about a kid who couldn't stop farting.

The Oscar nominated star of Sideways has gone on to become one of Hollywood's most respected actors, but he fears his best work came on 2002 film Thunderpants, which featured Ned Beatty, Stephen Fry and Harry Potter's best friend Rupert Grint.

Giamatti says, "Thunderpants is a fine motion picture that I made in England a long time ago about a kid who farts uncontrollably.

"This came across my desk and I had to be a part of it... I play a guy from Nasa who kidnaps him (kid) so that he can power a rocket.

"Strangely enough this picture never made it across the Atlantic but I think it was huge in England for a while. It's one of my favourite pictures; I loved making this movie... It's every variation on a fart joke that you could possible imagine."

Harry Potter star Rupert Grint was among the mourners at the funeral of his murdered co-star Robert Knox at an emotional service in England on Wednesday.

Grint, who plays Potter's sidekick Ron Weasley in the wizard franchise, paid his respects to the aspiring actor who died from multiple stab wounds following an altercation in Kent, England last month.

Knox appears as Marcus Belby in the forthcoming film Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince, and "looked up to" the Harry Potter stars, according to his father John Knox.

The service was attended by hundreds of friends and family in the Knox's hometown of Sidcup, where the murder took place.

Actor Daniel Radcliffe was unable to attend the service due to work commitments in the U.S.

A man has been charged with Knox's murder.

Rupert Grint has claimed it is best to avoid female stars like Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton.

The Harry Potter actor revealed that he met Lohan last year in America and that she bored him by talking about herself all the time.

Harry Potter star Rupert Grint has ruled out moving to Los Angeles to boost his movie career - in fear of meeting party girls Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton.

The 19-year-old actor isn't keen on moving to Hollywood after a fraught meeting with the Mean Girls star left him disappointed by her egotistical boasts.

And the British star has no intention to hook up with Lohan's former party pal Paris Hilton either.

He says, "I met Lindsay last summer and she talked about herself a lot. She said she was going to win an Oscar before she turns 25. I just kept thinking, 'But you can't act'.

"I haven't met Paris and don't want to either. She and Lindsay are the type of girls you need to star away from."

British actress Emma Watson has left her Harry Potter co-stars red-faced - after beating them at ping pong (table tennis).

The 17-year-old - who plays Hermione Granger in the boy wizard franchise - has left stars on the set of Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince too terrified to challenge her to a game.

Rupert Grint - who plays Ron Weasley - says, "I've got a table tennis on set and we're always playing between scenes.

"Dan (Radcliffe) has been have a few lucky months and we've both been getting really good but Emma is brilliant.

"We rarely play her now because it gets quite embarrassing."
