It’s being reported that David Yates and the BBC are set to develop a Doctor Who movie with hopes of turning the property into one of the next big franchises.

Yates is working with BBC Worldwide executive vice president of programming and production Jane Tranter, and potential writers are being looked at right now. Yates says that they’re not rushing the project, and that two to three years will be taken to make sure they get things right, explaining that it will require “quite a radical transformation to take it into the bigger arena.”

Right now, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 1 on DVD is only $4.99 (that’s 80% off the list price of $19.94), while the Blu-ray Combo Pack is only $9.99 (that’s 60% off the list price of $24.98).

There’s no mention as to when this deal ends, so grab it now while you can (and while supplies last!).

The franchise may be over, but with the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 DVD and Blu-ray set to hit relatively soon, fans of Harry Potter will have one more day in the spotlight. Especially for those who found themselves enthralled when two of the franchise’s characters finally hooked up.

With the release of the final film’s Blu-ray, comes a new feature which looks into the shooting of Ron and Hermione (Rupert Grint and Emma Watson) and their kiss, a relationship that was years in the making. Watch the feature here below.
