Movie producers Warner Bros have announced the release date for the fourth Harry Potter film.

While number three on the list "Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban" will not go on general release until June, things are moving apace on the fourth film.

"Harry Potter and The Goblet Of Fire", the fourth instalment of the series, is already well underway. News has broken that the film adaptation of the 732 page book will drop the Dursley family, and Kate Winslet is lined up to play temptress Fleur Delancour.

Amidst concerns that the child cast is aging fast, the release date for "Goblet" has been set at November 18th, 2005.

Mike Newell will direct the film, in which Harry is mysteriously selected for the deadly "Tri-Wizard Tournament".
