And results of an interview with JK Rowling, courtesy of the CBC. Hmmm, wanna bet one of the unfortunates will have the initials R.J.L.?

Um, guys, you all seem to be assuming that only two characters will die. That might not be the case. She only said "two characters that she hadn't planned on killing before". That means that she could have been planning to kill nearly the entire cast, and then added these two in also at the last minute.
Lupin will bite the dust. I think he will get sick of being use and abused as one of Harry's father figures and asking "WTF?!" about his never-before-hinted-at relationship with a younger woman (seriously, he was graduating Hogwarts when Tonks was born), and he's just going to off himself. That's my theory, at least. Besides, ALL of Harry's father figures die. I'm just waiting for Hagrid to go.
As for the other unplanned one...I'm not going to say "Snape!", because I think she's been planning [i]that[/i] one since day one. And it can't be Harry. Why? See the first sentence of this paragraph. Instead, I'm going to pull a name out of a hat...
Ah. The giant squid. How tragic.

NO NOT THE SQUID! AAAUGH! My favorite characters always die!

<---end jocular sarcasm--->

Very good point. It'll be a slaughter. I think it a little unlikely Lupin will do himself in (at least not intentionally) but he's got to be on the chopping block.
