    The *Harry Potter* movie franchise is crawling toward its bloody end. These photos, recently published in *Entertainment Weekly* magazine, show off the darker tone of *[Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I](http://harrypotter.warnerbros.com/harrypotterandthedeathlyhallows/)*, which hits theaters Nov. 19. Daniel Radcliffe, who plays the young wizard, said the two-part finale "[has been hard to make](http://popwatch.ew.com/2010/08/12/harry-potter-cover/), and I’ve had some of the most trying moments, both physically and mentally." See more of the cast's tribulations in the gallery above. *Photo: Jaap Buitendijk*
