The Independent reports that Helena Bonham Carter will return for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince:
English rose Bonham Carter has most recently won plaudits for her portrayal of Harry Potter villain Bellatrix Lestrange, the female Death Eater (boo, hiss).
She is cast again for the sixth movie, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, scheduled to begin filming in two months for a November 2008 release. Her publicist said yesterday that Bonham Carter was not due back on the Potter set until the spring.
The sixth “Harry Potter” installment is targeting a November 21, 2008 release.
