This bit of information is revealed in Entertainment Weekly’s annual Fall Movie Preview issue. In addition to this news, the issue includes new interviews with the cast, and a few other tidbits; including new photos of the highly anticipated film.

Part 1 of Deathly Hallows is set for a fall release date of November 19th, and the part 2 will be release July 15, 2011.
