Part 2 was released in the United Kingdom and the United States on 15 July 2011, by Warner Bros. Pictures, and is the only Harry Potter film to be released in 3D.[7] It was a commercial success and one of the best-reviewed films of 2011, with critics deeming it a satisfying conclusion to the saga while praising its visual effects, cinematography, musical score, action sequences, direction, and cast performances.[8][9][10][11][12][13] At the box office, the film claimed the worldwide opening weekend record, earning $483.2 million, as well as setting opening day and opening weekend records in various countries. Part 2 grossed over $1.3 billion worldwide and became the third-highest-grossing film of all time,[14] the highest-grossing film of 2011,[15] and the highest-grossing film released by Warner Bros. until it was overtaken by Barbie in 2023.[16] It is currently the highest-grossing film in the Harry Potter series and well as in the Wizarding World franchise.

The DVD and Blu-ray were released on 11 November 2011 in the United States[17] and on 2 December 2011 in the United Kingdom.[18]Part 1 and Part 2 were released as a combo pack on DVD and Blu-ray on 11 November 2011 in Canada.

After burying Dobby, Harry Potter asks the goblin Griphook to help him, along with Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, break into Bellatrix Lestrange's vault at Gringotts bank, suspecting a Horcrux is there. Griphook agrees, in exchange for the Sword of Gryffindor. Wandmaker Ollivander tells Harry that two wands taken from Malfoy Manor belonged to Bellatrix and Draco Malfoy; he senses Draco's wand has changed its allegiance to Harry, who captured it from Draco. A horcrux, Helga Hufflepuff's cup, is found in Bellatrix's vault, but Griphook snatches the sword and abandons them. Trapped by security, they release the dragon guardian and flee Gringotts on its back. Harry has a vision of Lord Voldemort at Gringotts, furious at the theft. Harry also realises a Horcrux connected to Rowena Ravenclaw is hidden at Hogwarts. The trio apparate into Hogsmeade and are helped by Aberforth Dumbledore. It is revealed that he was the one who sent Dobby to Malfoy Manor. He then reveals a secret passageway into Hogwarts, which Neville Longbottom guides them through.\n
Severus Snape knows Harry has returned and threatens to punish any staff or students who aid Harry. Harry confronts Snape, who flees during a duel with Professor McGonagall. McGonagall rouses the Hogwarts community for battle. Luna Lovegood urges Harry to speak to Helena Ravenclaw's ghost. Helena reveals Voldemort performed \"dark magic\" on her mother's diadem and tells Harry that the diadem is somewhere in the Room of Requirement. In the Chamber of Secrets, Ron and Hermione destroy the Horcrux cup with a Basilisk fang. Draco, Blaise Zabini and Gregory Goyle attack Harry in the Room of Requirement, but Ron and Hermione intervene. Goyle casts an uncontrollable Fiendfyre curse that kills him while Harry, Ron, and Hermione save Malfoy and Zabini and escape on brooms. Once outside, Harry stabs the diadem with the Basilisk fang and Ron kicks it into the inferno. As Voldemort's army attacks, Harry, seeing into Voldemort's mind, realises that Voldemort's snake Nagini is the final Horcrux. In the boathouse, the trio overhear Voldemort telling Snape that the Elder Wand cannot serve Voldemort until Snape dies; Nagini then viciously attacks Snape. As Snape dies, he gives Harry one of his memories. Meanwhile, Fred Weasley, Remus Lupin, and Nymphadora Tonks are killed in the chaos at Hogwarts.\n
Harry views Snape's memory in the Pensieve: Snape despised Harry's late father James, who bullied him, but he loved Harry's mother Lily. Following her death, Snape worked with Albus Dumbledore as a double agent amongst the Death Eaters, to protect Harry from Voldemort. Harry also learns that Dumbledore was dying and planned for Snape to kill him. It was Snape who conjured the Patronus doe that led Harry to Gryffindor's sword. Harry also learns that he became an accidental Horcrux when Voldemort's curse originally failed to kill him; Voldemort must now kill Harry to destroy the soul shard within him. Using the Resurrection Stone that had been stored in the Golden Snitch bequeathed to him, Harry summons the spirits of his parents, Sirius Black, and Remus. They comfort him before he surrenders to Voldemort in the Forbidden Forest. Voldemort casts the Killing Curse upon Harry, who awakens in limbo. Dumbledore's spirit meets him and explains that Harry is now free of Voldemort, and can choose to return to his body or move on. Harry chooses the former.\n
Voldemort displays Harry's apparent corpse and demands that Hogwarts surrender. As Neville draws the Sword of Gryffindor from the Sorting Hat in defiance, Harry reveals he is alive and the Malfoys and many other Death Eaters abandon Voldemort, demoralised after seeing that Harry still lived. While Harry confronts Voldemort in a duel throughout the castle, Ron's mother, Molly, kills Bellatrix in the Great Hall and Neville decapitates Nagini, destroying the last of the horcruxes. Harry finally destroys Voldemort after the Expelliarmus charm deflects the Killing Curse, rebounding it onto the Dark Lord. After the battle, Harry explains to Ron and Hermione that Voldemort never commanded the Elder Wand. It recognised him as its true master after he had disarmed Draco, who had earlier disarmed its previous owner, Dumbledore, atop the Astronomy Tower. Instead of claiming the Elder Wand, Harry destroys it.\n
Nineteen years later, Harry and his friends proudly watch their children leave for Hogwarts at King's Cross station.\n

In the book, a significant number of characters who have not appeared since some of the earlier novels reappear to defend Hogwarts in the large, final battle.[19] Director David Yates stated, \"I want to get them all back\", referring to his desire to bring back as many actors who have appeared in the franchise as possible for that climactic battle sequence in the film. Resultantly, several actors reprise their roles from previous Harry Potter films including Sean Biggerstaff as Oliver Wood, Jim Broadbent as Horace Slughorn, Gemma Jones as Poppy Pomfrey, Miriam Margolyes as Pomona Sprout, and Emma Thompson as Sybill Trelawney. \n
The roles of several minor characters were recast or replaced for this film. For example, Ciar\u00e1n Hinds assumed the role of Aberforth Dumbledore, Albus Dumbledore's brother and bartender of the Hog's Head inn.[20] For the final scene in the film which is set nineteen years after the film's main story, the actors playing the main characters were made to look older through the use of makeup and special effects.[21] After the initial look of the actors' aged appearances leaked onto the Internet, some fans reacted by opining that Radcliffe and Grint looked too old, while Watson did not appear significantly different at all. After primary filming concluded in June 2010, Yates examined the footage, and concluded that the problem could not be resolved through editing or CGI, and had the sequence re-shot that December, with redesigned makeup.[22]\n
Originally set for a single theatrical release, the idea to split the book into two parts was suggested by executive producer Lionel Wigram due to, what David Heyman called, \"creative imperative\". Heyman initially responded negatively to the idea, but Wigram asked, \"No, David. How are we going to do it?\". After rereading the book and discussing it with screenwriter Steve Kloves, he agreed with the division.[28]\n
In an interview with Architectural Digest, production designer Stuart Craig remarked on creating sets for Part 2. Of the Gringotts Wizarding Bank, he said, \"our banking hall, like any other, is made of marble and big marble columns. And it has great strength. The fact that the goblins are the bankers and tellers at the counter helps that feeling of grandeur and solidity and the big proportions. That was part of the fun of the set: we exaggerated the size of it, we exaggerated the weight of it, and we even exaggerated the shine of the marble.\" About the multiplication of treasure in one of the bank's vaults, he noted, \"We made literally thousands of pieces for it and vacuum metallised them to be shiny gold and silver. John Richardson, the special effects supervisor, made a floor that was capable of rising on different levels, so there was kind of a physical swelling of the treasure on it.\"[29]\n
Craig spoke about the Battle of Hogwarts to Art Insights Magazine, saying that \"the great challenge is the destruction of Hogwarts. The sun rising behind the smoke ... the massive remains of destroyed walls, the entrance hall, the entrance of the Great Hall, part of the roof of the Great Hall completely gone, so yeah. A big challenge there and an enjoyable one really \u2013 maybe it helped me and the guys in the art department sort of prepare for the end ... we demolished it before we had to strike it completely.\" When asked about the King's Cross scene near the end of the film, Craig said, \"We experimented a lot, quite honestly. I mean it was quite a protracted process really but we did experiment the sense of it being very burnt out very very kind of white \u2013 so we experimented with underlit floors, we experimented with different kind of white covering everything: white paint, white fabric, and the cameraman was involved in how much to expose it, and a series of camera tests were done, so we got there but with a great deal of preparation and research.\"[30]\n
Visual effects supervisor Tim Burke said that \"It was such a major job to stage the Battle of Hogwarts, and we had to do it in different stages of production. We had shots with complex linking camera moves from wide overviews, to flying into windows and interior spaces. So, we took the plunge at the end of 2008, and started rebuilding the school digitally with Double Negative.\" He went on to say: \"It's taken two years \u2013 getting renders out, texturing every facet of the building, constructing interiors to see through windows, building a destruction version of the school. We can design shots with the knowledge that we have this brilliant digital miniature that we can do anything with. With a practical Hogwarts, we would have shot it last summer and been so tied down. Instead, as David Yates finds the flow and structure, we are able to handle new concepts and ideas.\"[31]\n
On the quality of 3D in film, Burke told Los Angeles Times, \"I think it's good, actually. I think people are going to be really pleased. I know everyone's a little nervous and sceptical of 3D these days, but the work has been done very, very well. We've done over 200 shots in 3D and in the visual effects as well, because so much of it is CGI, so the results are very, very good. I think everyone's going to be really impressed with it, actually.\" Producer David Heyman spoke to SFX magazine about the 3D conversion, saying that \"The way David Yates is approaching 3D is he's trying to approach it from a character and story point of view. Trying to use the sense of isolation, of separation that sometimes 3D gives you, to heighten that at appropriate moments. So we're approaching it in a storytelling way.\"[32][33]\n
In 2012, the visual effects in the film were nominated for an Oscar. The film also won the BAFTA Award for Best Special Visual Effects at the 65th BAFTA Awards in 2012.\n
It was originally planned that John Williams, who composed the scores for the first three instalments, would return to compose the final film's score, but he was unavailable due to scheduling conflicts.[34] It was confirmed that the composer for Part 1, Alexandre Desplat, was set to return for Part 2.[35] In an interview with Film Music Magazine, Desplat stated that scoring Part 2 is \"a great challenge\" and that he has \"a lot of expectations to fulfill and a great deal of work\" ahead of him.[36] In a separate interview, Desplat also made note that Williams's themes will be present in the film \"much more than in Part 1\".[37] The soundtrack for the film was nominated for Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards.[38]\n
\nIn March 2011, the first preview for Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 2 was released, revealing new footage and new interviews from the starring cast.[39] The first United States poster was released on 28 March 2011, with the caption \"It All Ends 7.15\" (referring to its international release date).[40] On 27 April 2011 the first theatrical trailer for Part 2 was released. The trailer revealed a range of new and old footage.[41] The IMAX trailer for the film was released with IMAX screenings of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides on 20 May 2011. During the MTV Movie Awards on 5 June 2011, Emma Watson presented a sneak peek of the film.[42]\n
On 2 April 2011, a test screening of the film was held in Chicago, with Yates, Heyman, Barron and editor Mark Day in attendance.[43] The film had its world premiere on 7 July 2011 at Trafalgar Square in London.[44] The United States premiere was held in New York City at Lincoln Center on 11 July 2011.[45] Although filmed in 2D, the film was converted into 3D in post-production and was released in both RealD 3D, IMAX 3-D and 4DX.[46]\n
The film was originally scheduled to open in Indonesia on 13 July 2011.[47] The Indonesian government levied a new value added tax on royalties from foreign films in February 2011, causing three film studios, including Warner Brothers, to halt the importation of their films, including Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 2 into the country.[47] The film was not released to cinemas in the Kingdom of Jordan due to recently enforced taxes on films.[48]\n
On 10 June, one month before release, tickets went on sale.[49] On 16 June 2011, Part 2 received a 12A[50] certificate from the British Board of Film Classification, who note that the film \"contains moderate threat, injury detail and language\", becoming the only Harry Potter film to receive a warning for \"injury detail\".

Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 2 sold 2.71 million Blu-ray units ($60.75 million) in three days (Friday to Sunday).[52] It also sold 2.83 million DVD units ($42.22 million) during its debut.[53] By 18 July 2012 it had sold 4.71 million Blu-ray units ($99.33 million)[54] and 6.47 million DVD units ($88.96 million).[55]\n
On 28 March 2017, Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 2 made its Ultra HD Blu-ray debut, along with Deathly Hallows - Part 1, The Half-Blood Prince, and Order of the Phoenix.\n
Prior to its release, the film was predicted by box office analysts to break records, citing the anticipation built up over the course of 10 years.[63][64]Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 2 grossed $381.4 million in the United States and Canada, along with $960.8 million in other markets, for a worldwide total of $1.342 billion.[4] In worldwide earnings, it was the third-highest-grossing film, the highest-grossing film of 2011,[15] the highest-grossing film in the Harry Potter franchise, and the highest-grossing book adaptation.[65] It also became the highest-grossing film for Warner Bros. until 2023's Barbie,[16] as well as the highest-grossing release from parent company WarnerMedia, surpassing The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.[66]Part 2 set a worldwide opening-weekend record with $483.2 million.[58][67] This record would be held for four years before Jurassic World took it in 2015.[68] The film set a worldwide IMAX opening-weekend record with $23.2 million.[69][70] It set the worldwide record as the fastest film to gross $500 million (6 days),[71][72] $600 million (8 days),[73] $700 million (10 days),[74] $800 million (12 days),[74] and $900 million (15 days).[75] On 30 July 2011, the film crossed the $1 billion mark, tying the 19-day record that had been set by Avatar.[76][77][78] It was also the fastest Warner Bros. film to cross that mark until Barbie surpassed it in 2023, passing it in 17 days.[79]\n
In the US and Canada, the film became the 13th-highest-grossing film at the time of its release,[80] the highest-grossing film of 2011,[81] the highest-grossing Harry Potter film, the highest-grossing children's book adaptation,[82] the highest-grossing fantasy/live action film[83] and the 13th-highest-grossing 3-D film.[84]Box Office Mojo estimates that the film sold more than 40 million tickets.[85] It set new records in advance ticket sales with $32 million,[86][87] in its midnight opening with $43.5 million[59] and in its IMAX midnight opening with $2 million.[57][88] It grossed $91.1 million on its opening Friday, setting a Friday-gross record as well as single- and opening-day records.[89] It also set an opening-weekend record with $169.2 million, an IMAX opening-weekend record of $15.2 million and opening-weekend record for a 3-D film.[90][91][92] Although 3-D enhanced the film's earning potential, only 43% of the opening gross came from 3-D venues. This means only $72.8 million of the opening-weekend grosses originated from 3-D showings, the second-largest number at the time.[60]\n
It also scored the largest three-day[93] and four-day gross,[94][95] the sixth-highest-grossing opening week (Friday to Thursday) with $226.2 million,[96] and even the seventh-largest seven-day gross.[97] It fell precipitously by 84% on its second Friday[98] and by 72% during its second weekend overall, grossing $47.4 million, which is the largest second-weekend drop for any film that opened to more than $90 million.[99] Still, it managed to become the fastest-grossing film in the franchise and also achieved the second-largest ten-day gross ever at the time (now eighth).[100] In its third weekend, the movie surpassed Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone to become the highest-grossing film of the franchise in the US & Canada.[101]\n
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 2 became the third-highest-grossing film, the highest-grossing 2011 film, the highest-grossing Warner Bros. film and the highest-grossing Harry Potter film.[102] On its opening day, Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 2 grossed $43.6 million from 26 countries, placing it 86% ahead of Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 1 and 49% higher than Half-Blood Prince. From Wednesday until Sunday, on its 5-day opening weekend, it set an opening-weekend record outside the US and Canada by earning $314 million.[103][104] The average 3D share of Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 2 was 60%, which was lower than the 3D share for Transformers: Dark of the Moon (70%) and On Stranger Tides (66%).[105] On its second weekend, it held to the top spot, but fell precipitously by 62% to $120.2 million despite minor competition. This amount is about the same as what On Stranger Tides made from its second weekend ($124.3 million).[106]Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 2 was in first place at the box office outside North America for four consecutive weekends.[107][108]\n
In the United Kingdom, Ireland and Malta it brought in a record $14.8 million on its first day.[109] On its opening weekend it earned \u00a323,753,171 in the United Kingdom, marking the second largest opening weekend in 2011. Its performance did not surpass that of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban in 2004, which earned \u00a323,882,688 on its opening weekend.[110] In United States dollars, its opening weekend was an all-time record $38.3 million, ahead of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix ($33.5 million).[111] The film also achieved the largest single-day gross on its first Saturday[110] and the largest opening week with $57.6 million.[112] The film made a total of \u00a373.1 million ($117.2 million) at the United Kingdom box office,[113] making it the tenth-highest-grossing film.[114] It also is the highest-grossing film of 2011 and the highest-grossing Wizarding World film.[115]\n
Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 2 also set opening-day records in Mexico ($6.1 million), Australia ($7.5 million), France and the Maghreb region ($7.1 million), Italy ($4.6 million), Sweden ($2.1 million), Norway ($1.8 million), Denmark ($1.6 million), the Netherlands ($1.7 million), Belgium ($1.4 million), the Czech Republic ($2.0 million), Argentina ($961,000), Finland ($749,000) and Hong Kong ($808,000).[57][116][117][118] It also established new Harry Potter opening-day records in Japan ($5.7 million), Brazil ($4.4 million), Russia and the CIS ($4.2 million), Spain ($3.3 million) and Poland ($1.25 million).[109]\n
Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 2 set opening day records in India with \u20b915 crore ($3.41 million),[119] Australia with $19.6 million, New Zealand with $2.46 million,[120] Brazil with $11. million,[121] Scandinavia with $18.5 million, Mexico with $15.9 million[121][122] and many other Latin American and European countries.[57][123]\n
On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 96% based on 332 reviews, with an average score of 8.3/10. The site's critical consensus reads, \"Thrilling, powerfully acted, and visually dazzling, Deathly Hallows Part II brings the Harry Potter franchise to a satisfying \u2013 and suitably magical \u2013 conclusion.\"[124] On Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating to reviews, the film has a score of 85 out of 100 based on 41 reviews, indicating \"universal acclaim\".[125] The film received a score of 93 from professional critics at the Broadcast Film Critics Association; it is the organisation's highest-rated Harry Potter film.[126] Audiences surveyed by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of \"A\" on an A+ to F scale.[127]\n
Philip Womack in The Daily Telegraph commented, \"This is monumental cinema, awash with gorgeous tones, and carrying an ultimate message that will resonate with every viewer, young or old: there is darkness in all of us, but we can overcome it.\" He further expressed that David Yates \"transmutes [the book] into a genuinely terrifying spectacle.\"[128] Another review was released on the same day from Evening Standard, who rated the film four out of five and stated \"Millions of children, parents, and those who should know better won't need reminding what a Horcrux is \u2013 and director David Yates does not let them down. In fact, in some ways, he helps make up for the shortcomings of the final book.\"[129] The Daily Express remarked that the film showcases \"a terrifying showdown that easily equals Lord of the Rings or Star Wars in terms of a dramatic and memorable battle between good and evil\".[130]\n
Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times gave the film three and a half stars out of four and said, \"The finale conjures up enough awe and solemnity to serve as an appropriate finale and a dramatic contrast to the lighthearted (relative) innocence of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone all those magical years ago.\"[131]Mark Kermode from the BBC said that the film is a \"pretty solid and ambitious adaptation of a very complex book\", but he criticised the post-converted 3D.[132]Christy Lemire of the Associated Press gave the film three and a half out of four and said \"While Deathly Hallows: Part 2 offers long-promised answers, it also dares to pose some eternal questions, and it'll stay with you after the final chapter has closed.\"[133]Richard Roeper, also from the Chicago Sun-Times, gave the film an A+ rating and said: \"This is a masterful and worthy final chapter in one of the best franchises ever put to film.\"[134]\n
In one of the few negative reviews, Brian Gibson of Vue Weekly described the film as \"deadly dull\" and a \"visual overstatement\".[135] Other reviews criticised the decision to split the novel into two cinematic parts, with Ben Mortimer of The Daily Telegraph writing \"Deathly Hallows \u2013 Part 2 isn't a film. It's HALF a film ... it's going to feel somewhat emotionless.\" Other critics wrote of the film's runtime; Alonso Duralde from The Wrap said, \"If there's one substantial flaw to the film, it's that this cavalcade of people and places and objects can barely fit in the 130-minute running time.\"[136] Rebecca Gillie from The Oxford Student gave the film two out of five and wrote: \"At the end of [the film] there is nothing that stays with you once you've left the cinema.\"[137]\n
In November 2021, Chris Columbus, who directed the first two instalments of the film series, expressed interest in directing an adaptation of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, with the intent of having the main cast members reprise their roles.[147][148][149][150] In March 2022, when The New York Times asked Radcliffe whether he would return to his role as Harry Potter, he replied that he was not interested at the moment, but did not deny the possibility of returning to the role in the future.[151][152]\n

Harry Potter
British author J.K. Rowling made waves in the children\u2019s book industry upon the release of her debut novel \u2018Harry Potter and the Philosopher\u2019s Stone\u2019 in the UK back in 1997 and is now one the most well-known authors in the world. Rowling\u2019s \u2018Harry Potter\u2019 books are adored by readers across generations all around the globe, and despite diehard fans having their reservations about the movie adaptations, all the films performed well at the box office.\r\n
\r\nThe first movie was released in 2001, the same year as \u2018Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring\u2019 \u2013 another favorite among fantasy film fans. The Harry Potter movie franchise culminated with the eagerly anticipated adaptations of the \u2018Deathly Hallows\u2019 book, with the last film being released almost ten years after \u2018Harry Potter and the Sorcerer\u2019s Stone\u2019. As is often the case in the movie industry, the final book was spread over two separate films in order to do justice to its length and detail. \r\n
\r\nAnother common practice in the film industry is to release prequels to already successful movies, creating lengthy billion-dollar franchises. Significant movie franchises with prequels range from \u2018Alien\u2019 and \u2018The Lord of the Rings\u2019 to \u2018X-Men\u2019 and \u2018Star Wars\u2019, and the release of \u2018Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them\u2019 in 2016 marked the first of five planned Harry Potter prequels. These, along with the original Harry Potter movies, collectively make up fictional universe the Wizarding World, which is one of the highest grossing film franchises of all time. \n

Whether you are part of a big production company or simply paying off the standard bills, budgeting is not a new concept. Films, especially ones that are part of successful series, are not cheap. Budgets get pulled in many different directions, including wages for actors and crew members, story rights, different locations getting paid off, visual effects, and countless hours worth of editing. If special effects play a more dominant role in a film, the cost rises. Actors who are well-known tend to see bigger checks than those who are just starting out in the industry. The list could easily go on.
\n
For the original eight films in the Harry Potter series, one can imagine that as the magic became more intricate and the actors grew more famous, the expenses of the films increased. Overall, the franchise profited $5.6 billion from the eight movies, but that was after covering about $2 billion worth of budgets and marketing strategies. It seemed to pay off in the end.

With the worldwide success of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, everyone working on the second film, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, knew they had high expectations to meet. The budget was lowered to $100 million, but the quality of the movie did not decrease a single bit. As a second-year student, Harry has more of an understanding of who he is and the dark forces that work against good wizards and witches at Hogwarts. He ends up risking his life (again) to save his friends, and he realizes the lengths that Voldemort will go to destroy him and everyone he loves. The film brought in $879.8 million at the box office, so even with a smaller budget, no one can doubt that it was still a huge success.
\n
\n 7 \n Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone — $125 Million\n
When adapting J. K. Rowling's first novel into a screenplay, the producers knew they were going to need a fairly large budget to be able to pull off many different aspects. A $125 million budget for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone turned into $947 million at the box office, so it is safe to say that the actors and crew soon realized they had something successful in their hands. For those who had not read the series, scenes such as those in the fanciful Great Hall and characters like Rubeus Hagrid were absolutely breathtaking. It felt like audiences were learning, alongside Harry, that the wizarding world really does exist, and there is so much more to the mundane muggle world than anyone ever expected.

Splitting J. K. Rowling's seventh and final novel of the series into two movies was a genius move because it allowed for more character development, an adventurous travel tale, and a war that felt completely unrushed. The first part of the finale focuses on Harry, Hermione, and Ron's journey to find and discover all of Voldemort's Horcruxes, but along the way, darkness and betrayal start to creep into their minds. Leaving fans on a bit of a cliffhanger (if they did not read the books), the producers knew the final film would be highly sought after. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1 comes in as the third most profitable film as it grossed $977.1 million.
\n
\n 5 \n Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 — $125 Million\n
The long-awaited battle finally took place in the second part finale, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2, and fans could not rush to see it fast enough. Opening weekend brought in $169.2 million, and it grossed $1.3 billion at the box office (per The Numbers). Harry, Hermione, and Ron are still on the hunt to find and destroy the remaining Horcruxes, but their search brings them back to Hogwarts.
\n
Classmates and staff members are made fully aware of what is coming their way, and they prepare for war. When Voldemort and his army do arrive, everyone is in full force and understands that lives are at stake. Harry, Mrs. Weasley, and Neville, among many others, engage in heroic fights. In the end, Harry and his friends seem to live long and happy lives with the final scene having them see their own children off to Hogwarts.
\n
\n 4 \n Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban — $130 Million\n
Much like Hermione's Time-Turner necklace, the third film of the franchise, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, can be seen as a turning point for Harry. While he has felt alone for so many years with only the horrid Dursleys as his family, he finally learns that he has a godfather, Sirius Black, who was his father's best friend back in the day. Harry spends quite a bit of the film wanting to kill him until he learns that Sirius is innocent of his accused crimes.
\n
Even with the multiple happy endings for several characters in this film, it was the least profitable movie of the Harry Potter franchise. It brought in $797.7 million worldwide, but the character growth that took place is invaluable.
\n 3 \n Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire — $150 Million\n

Mystical dragons, an epic competition, and a wizard's version of a prom, what more could any Harry Potter fan ask for? Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire comes in at number six for how much it brought in at the box office ($896 million), but as for how storylines go, it is one of the best. Harry gets to experience what it is like to compete with other powerful wizards in a deadly tournament.
\n
Getting to see schools of magic other than Hogwarts is a treat, but things quickly turn dark during the third and final task. Voldemort, along with several Death Eaters, ruin the challenge and murder Harry's classmate and friend, Cedric. From here on, the fun and games are over, and Harry vows to kill the Dark Lord.
\n
\n 2 \n Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix — $150 Million\n
In the fifth installment, fans are introduced to a number of evil characters, but no one is more wicked and hated than the frilly woman in pink, Dolores Umbridge. Harry and his friends know bad things are coming, but with Umbridge as the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, no one is learning how to defend themselves from a future attack.
\n
With only a $150 million budget, this film did extremely well with its use of special effects and CGI as well as the amount of characters it brought forward. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix grossed $942.2 million at the box office, making it the fourth-highest earning film in the series.
\n
\n 1 \n Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince — $250 Million\n
Out of the original eight films, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince tops the charts as the movie with the biggest budget. For a moment, producers were nervous that the trio was going to break up, but each of the stars signed their contracts and continued on with the series. In the sixth film, Harry becomes a star student in his potions class with the help of the Half-Blood prince's textbook. Voldemort has his Death Eaters run rampant and destroy seemingly anything and everything they want as a way to put muggles and wizards in their place. The film grossed $934.5 million at the worldwide box office.
