The first official trailer forHarry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the much-anticipated conclusion of the franchise, has been unleashed.

As we know, the final chapter will be split into two movies – part 1 and 2 – the first of which will be released in November, with Part 2 following in July next year.

The trailer offers a glimpse at what to expect when the wizarding fairytale ends, including a battle to end all battles between Potter and arch-villain Lord Voldemort.

Pundits say this with every Potter movie, but the tone of this trailer signposts a dark and tumultuous thriller, rather than a warm and fuzzy fairytale.

Check out the trailer:
