Rumors that Have Been Put to Rest

Listen carefully, I shall say this only once: the only sources you should trust concerning information on the Half-Blood Prince are official spokespeople for my publishers and my official website.

- JK Rowling, JKRowling.com

• HBP will not contain chapters entitled: "Lupin’s Papers," "Pettigrew's Pamphlets," "Sirius's Circulars" or "The Pocket Crosswords of Severus Snape."

• Colin and Dennis Creevey won't be the new Gryffindor Beaters - the Beaters will be totally new finds of the Captain's.
• Nicolas Flamel will not teach Potions at Hogwarts, as when he destroyed the Philosopher's Stone, he died.
• Luna and Neville will not get together in HBP.
• Half-Blood Prince will not be 38 chapters long.
• Harry will not stand trial again in HBP, he leaves the Dursleys early for a "much pleasanter" reason than a court case.
• There will be no character named "Icicle," and JK said that she didn't recall saying there ever would be.

• Dumbledore is not a relative of Harry.

• Harry is not related to Voldemort and he is not related to Salazar Slytherin.

• Lily Potter is not alive.

• Lily was not a Death Eater.

• No prequel books are planned (no books before Harry's time at Hogwarts).

• Crookshanks is not an Animagus.

• Neville is not the son of Peter Pettigrew. (Where do these people come up with this stuff?!)

• Remus Lupin does not have a twin brother.

• The next book will not be called "Harry Potter and the Green Flame Torch" or "Harry Potter and the Mountain of Fantasy."

• JK does not have any parts in the films.

• Harry Potter will not be the new Minister of Magic.
