Producer David Heyman recently spoke with SciFi in order to promote his upcomng movie Yes Man, however discussion about the postponing the release of the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie did occur:
"No need to [do more work]," Heyman said. "If we had to come out now, we'd be fine. Warners asked it because of the writers' strike, because of various reasons. They have a shortage of product for next summer, and they asked if it's OK [to delay the release]."
Don't worry, Potter fans. Warner Brothers would not shortchange its most magical franchise. "They've been absolutely fantastic supporting these films," Heyman said. "You couldn't ask for a better studio in terms of what they've given us, the independence and support that they've given us throughout the process, so of course we said yes."

Moreover, Heyman also spoke to USA Today as part of the Half-Blood Prince preview weekend on ABC Family.
It's different than the other films," says Heyman. "It's not the non-stop action that some of the others are, although there is some action. It's more of an emotional film. We follow multiple stories: Harry's relationship with Ginny Weasley, Ron's relationship with Lavender Brown. … There also is Hermione's discomfort with Ron's relationship with Lavender. There's Draco Malfoy's story. And then there's Harry's relationship with (Hogwarts headmaster and professor) Dumbledore. We're following these multiple stories that enrich the canvas."
