As much as I don't like it, I think it is totally possible that J.K. Rowling might kill off Harry. If you remember the article, she said that there is a good side to killing off your main character. When she is dead and gone, no one will be able to come back and write Harry because he already died; it would be satisfactory to know that no one will come back and take over you masterpiece.
Here is a list of people besides Harry that I think might perish.
Ron: Besides being Harry's best mate, we haven't really seen him prove himself in times of danger and battle. He showed his strengths back in Book 1 when during the giant chess match during the hunt for the Philosopher's Stone. There is a theory that Ron will sacrifice himself for Harry in the final match against Voldemort.
Pettigrew: Do I have to explain it? Let's see... He betrayed the Potters, he helped Voldemort get his body back, and is an all-around bad guy. I think it's time to go, and that the life-debt that he has to Harry will be involved somehow.
Draco: I think that apart from being "bad", Draco is really a tragic character. His family are Death Eaters. He's got a lot to live up to. I got the kind of feeling that he was forced in the Book 6 to serve Voldemort. All the stress he underwent, the frustration, the anxiety... I mean, the poor boy was misguided. Remember that he is only about 17. People can make horrible mistakes when they are at that age. Unfortunately in Draco's case, it might cost him his life. He's in too deep.
Professor Trelawney: I think there is a possibility of her death in Book 7. She's always predicting how people will die, and seeing strange, dark omens everywhere. I think that is a kind of subtle foreshadowing. She sees death everywhere, why can't it be hers? I just wonder how this would play out, and how important it would be to the actual plot.
Percy: Hmm... Anyone sure which side he is really on?
Who will get a reprieve? (JKR said in a very recent interview that she gave a certain character a reprieve from dying) I have an inkling that it is one of the Dursleys.... or Snape.

YEs, Rowling has said she "understands why other authors kill of their main character." Reason being is that she (and other authors with their main characters) doesn't want to see someone else come along later and pick up the story where she left off and make it go a whole different way. She has also said that 2 of the main characters in the story die in the last book. There is only conjecture about who those two might be. Ignore the first poster, anything you see on that site is all rumors and guesses, and nothing is verified. JK Rowling has been very good at keeping her lips sealed about what happens in the story until it is actually released.

The author herself told in her latest interview.,that two main will die in the last book (originally was 3). She also said that after the 7 book, there will be not more books in this series. That is why the theory that Harry will die in this book makes sense.

It's one way to ensure that another author won't try to revive the Harry Potter series sometime down the road.

I think Harry and Voldemort will die. It said in the last book that one could not live without the other.

Harry Potter is eternal because he is a fictional character. Like the roadrunner. Remember him? Or does that totally date me?

Jo understands the desire to kill of a main character She did explain that she understood an author's desire to kill off the main character of a successful series.
"I've never been tempted to kill him (Harry) off before the end of book seven, because I always planned seven books and that's where I want to go. "I can completely understand, however, the mentality of an author who thinks 'Well, I'm going to kill them off because that means there can be no non-author-written sequels ... so it will end with me, and after I'm dead and gone they won't be able to bring back the character'."
Some fans have interpreted this to mean she has killed off Harry. Read her words carefully. She did not even hint she killed him off.

It is just an idea. It is thought that harry is the 7th horcrux and in order to kill voldemort, he has to be killed.
