Forbes has released a list of the wealthiest fictional characters, and Lucius Malfoy came in at #12, three places better than last year's #15 ranking. The site estimates his net worth to be $1.3 billion.
"With the price of gold at record levels, stockpiles of gold galleons have appreciated significantly. Minister of Magic Rufus Scrimgeour reportedly increasing security outside Malfoy's cell in the wake of Dementor guard revolt, fearing escape attempt. Malfoy, unbowed, vows to return to public life: 'My race is not yet run.'"

Electronic Arts, maker of the entire Potter video game series, today has a new game to announce: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix! In a press release issued this afternoon, EA had this to say about the game's uniqueness:
The close and synergistic relationship between book, film and videogame is more defined in the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix videogame than ever before. Players will be able to explore the many key locations within Hogwarts in minute detail, each one a visual match to its film equivalent, while being engrossed in the thrilling adventures outlined in the rich narrative of the book.
With the ability to play multiple characters, including Harry Potter, Dumbledore and Sirius Black, the videogame of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix offers fans the opportunity to wield a wand, explore all around Hogwarts, and experience one of the most exciting and dangerous years in the life of the Boy Who Lived.
You can see four screenshots from the game in our gallery! The game will be released for all gaming consoles on July 13th, 2007 - the same day of the US and UK release of the film.
Programming note: Episode 65 of MuggleCast (due for release this Sunday) will include a special interview with two producers of the OOTP video game.

JKR-donated book on eBay

JKR discusses Harry's birthday
As a special birthday treat for JK Rowling, South American fan site HPLA gathered money from hundreds of Latin American fans in order to send Jo a bunch of roses and teddy bears. JK later responded in a letter, thanking them for the gifts, as well as shedding light on her motives for giving Harry a July 31st birthday.
When I chose to give Harry my own birthday, I did it with a wry smile to myself. I had no idea, at that time, that I would ever be published, so it was a very private act! But I had always felt slightly cheated that nobody really famous shared my birthday, so I gave myself this (wizard) world world famous boy as a kind of birthday brother. The wonderful side-effect, all these years later, is letters like yours. I could never have imagined it, and it all seems slightly surreal, still!
A scan of the letter can be viewed here. Thanks to Vale of HPLA for the tip!

Newsweek interviews Dan Radcliffe
The weekly US magazine has two new articles focusing around Dan as an actor and how his life has been affected by the Potter films:
You've been playing Harry for six years now. Are you still enjoying it?
This film has been the most fun I've had, definitely, partly because of Imelda Staunton [who plays Harry's nemesis, Professor Dolores Umbridge], and partly because of David Yates, our wonderful director, who I have had absolutely the time of my life working with. He pushes me farther and more often than I ever have been before. This is not being detrimental to any of the previous directors because I wouldn't have been able to do this before, but David has caught me at just the right moment.
