First promotional image for 'Order of the Phoenix'
Ain't It Cool News was at the New York Licensing Show yesterday, where a promotional banner for Order of the Phoenix was spotted.

The picture depicts Harry holding his wand with Hogwarts in the background. Although this is a generic promotion for the next film, one major difference in this film appears to be Dan's hair.

I think it's funny how everyone's so obsessed with Dan's hair. =P But yeah, it looked better longer...It might just be an affect of the way the picture was taken or something, or maybe there's wind blowing it back or to the side. I'm sure it'll look fine for the movies, and after all the promo stuff comes out, and the trailers etc, we'll all be used to it. Nice poster though. =)

his hair looks strange...i think they're trying to make him look more like an adult, getting past the teenager stage. i kinda saw that with the US book covers too...still weird though. but i CAN'T WAIT for the movie!!! more than a year, arrggghhh! it better be freaking amazing or I will be so angry (OOTP was my favorite book).


Posted by NinjaPhoenx Jun 21st 2006

are we sure its not been photo shopped? .....oh my GOD!!! it cant be real! where's his *$%#ing scar!!!


Posted by ollie Jun 21st 2006

*Bets five galleons that it is fake* It's.. got to be! Please let it be fake..


Posted by VGwritesalot Jun 21st 2006

Ohhh mannnn *whine* His long hair was sexy! :(


Posted by Chabichou Jun 21st 2006

His hair is way too short! Well, actually, it looks fine normally, but they style it weird for the movie.


Posted by jasmine Jun 21st 2006

At first, I thought I was looking at a James Bond poster. Then I saw the wand (not a gun, lol) and it's actually Harry, minus the messy hair. Maybe it's a fake. The pic's all blurry and I can't clearly see the scar so ths must not be an official poster.


Posted by Luisa Jun 21st 2006

He still looks wicked hot, though.


Posted by anaweasley Jun 21st 2006

in Dan i like shorter hair better (well, not only in Dan) but harry's hair should be longer and messier but oh well who cares? just another list that never has been really taken for the movie as hermione's teeth and such but oh well, i dont care of those LITTLE details... majore details are something else like who did the map! that should've been in the movie!!! ok i'll calm down now, so good hair Dan lol


Posted by katiem Jun 21st 2006

I hope its not that neat for the movie... but I like it.


Posted by Gyffindor_Lioness Jun 21st 2006

Yeah, I kinda figured out the hair thing, from the pic of the skit that was posted yesterday, the 20th. Did anyone else notice that Rupert's hair is short as well, or is it just me? Also, Emma's hair is even less curly, than it was in the GOF movie. (I'm sorry about my screen name. I misspelled it when making my account. I'm still trying to find out how to fix it)


Posted by Silvereyes Jun 21st 2006

His hair is short. *tear* anyway the banner looks cool anyway!! =)


Posted by Splizzash Jun 21st 2006

Ew, Dan's a dork now - BAD hair cut!


Posted by princeofdarkness Jun 21st 2006

holy crap what the F*** have they done to his hair!? i know i said the same thing to GoF and got used to it but i mean, really. this is reaally bad. Bring Back The Azkaban Do !!! i know its like hardly a teaser pic but still... warner bros c'mon guys, makin us all uneasy here eh? - kewl though they already got a release date heh.


Posted by snuffles101 Jun 21st 2006

mother of pearl! NI! What did he do to his precious hair! it's... it's ... it's not HARRY HAIR! argh!


Posted by Chrisell Jun 21st 2006

You people are acting as if Dan is Samson. Oh dear, was all his looks in his hair or something and now that it's gone he looks ugly. LOL. Leave him alone. He looks alright, just not great. Hermione's hair isn't canon either.


Posted by trueShipper Jun 21st 2006

Many people are acting rashly. You know what, how would you feel if by some chance, Dan stumbled onto mugglenet and read that some people are talking about how much people hate his hair cut, or about how if so-and-so were dating him they'd dump him due to his hair...(though i gotta say, he's better off without girls like that) but for the love of please stop...you don't know if it was his decision or the directors, so you ought not to be insulting Dan's judgement, and this is only ONE picture, and it looks like the wind may have been blowing it back a bit anyway but please, don't go berserk over ONE picture, its rather degrading to Dan.


Posted by katie19 Jun 21st 2006

is it just me or is a certian lightning shaped item (cough cough HIS SCAR) missing????


Posted by Hermione08 Jun 21st 2006

It might just be a fuzzy picture...but I can't see the scar.


Posted by princeofdarkness Jun 21st 2006

ok guys i know some of you are all skeptical of the crazy hair-obsessed fans, but i mean parts of his appearance are simply part of his character in the story. harry's hair (jet black, messy. identical to james). harry's eyes (green, from his mother). harry's scar (duh). ---the only thing the movies seem to get right are his glasses. If this is the director/or whomever's way of showing harry's stark emotional change or age, its understandable but still, eh. wrong. ..like gambon. :P


Posted by GreyWolf Jun 21st 2006

His hair looks better


Posted by princeofdarkness Jun 21st 2006

lol...*has fits of bursting out laughing in a ridiculously potter-manic way* like, dude...wheres his scar...hahahahahahahahahahaha


Posted by iheartmugglecast Jun 21st 2006

His hair is gross. Totally gross. If I wasn't obsessed with Harry Potter I'd say a lot more, but then I'd be banned from the comment section so my lips are sealed about my opinion to this disgusting cut *shakesheadviolently*


Posted by Brendaisrupertsgurl Jun 21st 2006

Oh gosh, i'm CRACKING up here, what the hell did he do, lol!!!!! hahahaahaha, honestly i think he looks like shhh. He looks bad, lol. Now no one will ever judge who's hotter, ron or harry????? lol, hahahaha RON Definitely, without a doubt, i mean he was always hotter when his hair was shorter but now you all will know that rupert is hotter because he didn't cut his hair Dan did!!!!! LOL, LMAO!!! i FInd this halarious, i mean dan looks horrible, i'm not exaggerating, i think he looks so bad, what ever possesed him to that and i am still cracking up at the sight of it, it's halarious!!! lol


Posted by I_Killed_Dumbledore Jun 21st 2006

This screams photoshop. I call BS on this one. It has to be fake. Doesn't it?


Posted by harryginny4evah Jun 21st 2006

i looked at the pic again and the scar is def. not there, so maybe this pic isnt for real...hopefully...


Posted by Brendaisrupertsgurl Jun 21st 2006

NOpe it's not fake, i've seen other pictures, at least 5 or 6, so it's definitely not fake, sorry to break it to you!!!!!!!! It's not Photoshoped!!!


Posted by Hogsmeade_Apothecary Jun 21st 2006

Let the Battle of the Hairstyle Complaining begin...oh wait...too late...


Posted by destany Jun 21st 2006

What the heck did they do to his hair!!! It's all tidy. It's not SUPPOSED to be tidy! :(


Posted by HPobsessed08 Jun 21st 2006

Ehh...I'm glad there's something out already, BUT what is with his hair?! How about a length between PoA hair and GoF hair? That would be perfect (and Gorgeous!)! Yeah, not a fan so far...


Posted by HPobsessed08 Jun 21st 2006

Ok, I just read through a few and I agree with RonLover...where is his scar?!


Posted by Kym Jun 21st 2006

My first thought was "What's up with the hair?" ...I want my messy-haired Dan back. LoL.


Posted by greekmuggle Jun 21st 2006

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO His hair is terrible WB people!!!! why?????????????


Posted by germsrbad Jun 21st 2006

Yeah I think it's a fake cause his eye's aint green, but if this is a real pic then it could possibly be that they want Harry look as much like his father as possible considering he's going to have his own seen in this movie.


Posted by germsrbad Jun 21st 2006

Scene*


Posted by Demented_MoonSinger Jun 21st 2006

I agree with flojo020... harrys hair is weird in this one... I like the messy hotness of the old dan...


Posted by VivaLaVivienne Jun 21st 2006

I prefer short hair to long hair. Thank god they had the sense to cut it.


Posted by Arodhpfan0013 Jun 21st 2006

This might not even be a real teaser poster. This could have been shot back in February, in which case his hair would have had some time to grow. Plus, tmight just be a bad angle with the wind that gives the illusion of extremely short hair. We'll have to wait to see some real pictures of Order of the Phoenix to draw any definite conclusions.


Posted by punkishpunk_thing Jun 21st 2006

as long as he doesn't have his hair like it was in SS/PS and CoS then I guess I'm fine. And I thin it's looks kinda cute... lol. :-D


Posted by appleannie Jun 21st 2006

Honestly! His HAIR? You are all upset about his HAIR??? Get over it! I'll agree it's not the best, but come on! Be excited we have a release date and a picture. We've barely had any picts on the new movie... Honestly.


Posted by appleannie Jun 21st 2006

Oh, and when in your life have you had the SAME haircut 5 years in a row??? If you have....YOU NEED A CHANGE. I may not think it's best for Dan, but the style is really hot right now.


Posted by ChessWizard Jun 21st 2006

Ok, his hair's just nasty.... and they forgot his scar... i don't think you can really get any more sloppy than this... they forgot his scar... how do you forget Harry Potter's lightning bolt shaped scar??? and with the short hair, it's all the more obvious... Stick to the books, please.


Posted by brittpinkie Jun 21st 2006

I love Dan's new hair...he looks great and I'm looking forward to OOTP... :)


Posted by amortentiabrewer Jun 21st 2006

EEEEEK they better change it! I will freak out! Maybe...


Posted by allie_meagan Jun 21st 2006

What... Is... That?!?! It appears as if Dan attempted to fight with a lawn mower (lost: miserably) and then proceeded to try to conceal the carnage by using Tom Felton's leftover "There's Something About Mary"-esque hair product from the first Harry Potter film. I think most of the people here would readily agree that Daniel Radcliffe couldn't possibly look more ridiculous if his hair was styled in the fashion of an Oompa-Loompa from "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory."


Posted by jdar2186 Jun 21st 2006

I am the only one that noticed he doesn't have a scar in that picture??


Posted by allie_meagan Jun 21st 2006

I'm sure plenty of people noticed the missing scar, but with a 'hairstyle' like that, any skin disfigurement would pale in comparison. Heck, I don't think even a bogey hanging out of his nose would make fewer people comment on his hair.


Posted by ihavethepower Jun 21st 2006

I bet 50 galleons its real. It is real anyway.


Posted by arl0617 Jun 21st 2006

u know what i like it short have always loved his hair short since poa i think he looks really hot.


Posted by HarrysMyHero Jun 21st 2006

dang.... i think i like the hair.. maybe a bit longer would be good ... but at least its not OVERLY long haha.... im soooo excited! and the scar... hmmm why its not there Does raise some questions....
