Bill & Fleur Deathly Hallows wedding scenes filming begins August 10
 

Thewlis Rox were notified by staff members at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry, which is currently hosting the first leg of the Harry Potter Exhibition tour, that some of David Thewlis's costumes for Remus Lupin were sent back to the UK, as the actor will be required to wear them for Bill and Fleur's wedding scenes in Deathly Hallows.

Question is, will the wedding be at the Burrow?????

I believe so, yes. I think David Heyman did mention that it would be there.

Yay!!!!!

ohh yay that is good news then i always did like the wedding scene

I'm so glad the wedding scene is in. And they mentioned that Krum will be in the movie, so hopefully we get to see more of jealous-Ron.

I should have my full report and the photographs up when I return home from Chicago on Saturday evening. :)

So check back on Thewlis Rox around that time, or Sunday at the latest.

awesome! i am so glad that the wedding scene is in! it is probably one of my favorite parts. i can't wait to see luna & xeno lovegood!!

ahh that same day classes begin here in Puerto Rico xD :no:

this scene will be great!and I hope faithful to the book!

Well, why then did they burn the Burrow at the last movie? That was such a bad decision on their part to do just that. I'm still a bit disappointed in the movie itself. Just my honest opinion, but I could say more, but not this time.

Well I sincerely hope the wedding is at the Burrow, it would make no sense other wise, and I agree that burning it down wasn't very nice :/

Yeah, i was wondering about the wedding being at the Burrow. Didn't they burn it in Half Blood Prince??

coolio

Cool!

I thought that burning down the Burrow made a lot of sense, in dramatic terms. The tension is created in the book by a steady drip of reported attacks, deaths and disapearances. That wouldn't have translated to film very well. The Burrow has an emotional attachment for Harry and the audience so the attack makes both him and us feel vulnerable. Besides, they are wizards they can rebuild.


*runs away before she gets shouted at*

I agree with you 100%- as strange as I thought about them adding that scene, it did show the tension- plus the fact that DE loathe the Weasleys b/c of them being blood traitors-so who better to target with a final warning to them? GREAT point too about the Burrow and Harry and the emotional attachment- it is Harry's first true home away from Hogwarts... great analysis!!!

SOOO cant wait to see bts of the wedding!!! (if we can that is :-))... The Wedding will ROCK just like everything in DH movies will!!!! :)

THANK GOD the wedding will be in the movieeee, im so excited
^^^AND i agree with the above, at first i wasnt sre why they added that scene, but i get it now

That’s exactly what I think, and you put it better than I would have managed :)

Hooray!!! Someone who agrees with me!:D

EDIT:
2 people who agree with me! *does a happy dance*

exactly!!!

:huh: 3 people agree with me?? I'm not sure I can cope ;)

Awesome!! I love that scene!! and i can't wait for DH1!!

Deathly hallow the movie will be so great if everything on the book comes out

this is fabulous!

I'm really happy they didn't remove the wedding scene I love it...it reminds us that even in the darkest time we can find light (hahaha reminds me of Dumbledore in the 3rd movie: Happiness can be found in the darkest of time if one only remebers to turn on the light")

Well, returning to the scene I love it because is like the only peace they can have in all that war...love can fight with anything and win!! love the scene! love that they decided to do the scene!

OMG IM SO HAPPY!!! that's on my birthday too, so yay! i also love luna with all of my heart, and hope they don't cut any of her

Excellent, the wedding scene I was looking forward to, because lots of characters come back. I hope they include a lot of them!

WoW! I am excited to see how the wedding looks like. :)

that is one of my fav parts in DH, so im glad that they kept it in

Reparo

David Heyman confirmed the wedding will take place at the Burrow when I interviewed him.

You can read the entire interview here.

Exactcly. Both of you have it right. It truly made things more dramatic. Those who were bothered by the destruction of the Burrow in the film seem to miss how that scene added dramatically to the film. For Harry, the Burrow was a real home unlike with the Dursleys. And it's true that Death Eater members like Bellatrix Lestrange loathe the Weasleys. Well, if you are as insane as Mrs. Bella Lestrange, then the idea of burning down the house of a family of dubbed "blood traitors" would certainly be amusing.

Well they got something right.

Love that scence,so glad they kept it! cant wait for DH!! hopefully they dont cut out as much as they did in HBP though.

cool love the wedding bit DH is going to rock

I agree! :yes:

Oww it's a great news !! I'm so excited !!

Honestly, you're far from being on your own.

It's basic film language; showing instead of telling. Books can get away with exposition, moreso than movies. Which is why I hope that scene with Neville, in DH, where he's guiding the trio, doesn't just include him telling them what they've been up to. They should show Ginny, Luna and Neville's shenanigans in a montage, at the very least, especially with two films to fill!

i'm glad that there is wedding scene , so excited for the 7th movie

I really hope it's going to be at the Burrow! I just can't wait for the movie anymore!

So Awesome!! I hope we get some pictures! I have a feeling it's going to be a GORGEOUS wedding. The set design people always do an amazing job when it comes to designing sets!

So cool!!!!

And it's definitely going to be at the Burrow! I mean they're wizards...they can rebuild a house with a simple flick of their wand. :D :happy:

Arrrgghhhhhh!
We get to see the wedding,we get to see the wedding!! :jump:

I'm looking forward to seeing Xeno and Luna's outfits. :P

Sorry, I have to disagree (there's always one!) I'm not about to shout though - everyone sees things differently. I felt that the scene was poor for several reasons.

1. For an action scene, it had no action. Harry, then Ginny ran towards the Death Eaters. There was some running through the long grass. Ginny was disarmed and Harry jumped in. Flashing lights and shakycam were followed by a shot of the Order etc standing in a circle wands pointing out, but at who? There were no duels worth mentioning - it was dull to watch.

Why not have Greyback go for Ginny's temptingly exposed throat and Harry really have to fight him off? Why not have the already stressed Remus completely lose it? He obviously hates Greyback. Nope, the Death Eaters turned away and burnt down the Burrow instead of trying to kill the occupants. Not as shocking as you'd hope from cold blooded murderers. In fact, they should have waited an hour till the lights were out, indicating the family were asleep, then just set fire to it (and them). Why on earth mess about with a ring around the Burrow which looked cool, but ensured that everyone had time to get out safely? If you can fly, don't run through the grass! If the Burrow is so easy to access all of a sudden, why not KILL Harry's closest family substitutes - getting Harry himself would be a bonus - instead of a silly warning shot? The Wizarding World would have really been in trouble if they had done that. Sorry their behaviour wasn't menacing at all!

2. As you said, they could rebuild the Burrow with magic in time for the wedding, so why NO attempts to put out the fire with magic while it was still burning? Why no attempts to summon key possessions? Or their brooms to at least try to use some water spells from above? (Aren't the brooms kept outside?) OK, the Weasleys were in shock, but Remus has bad times every month and Tonks is an Auror. They could surely try to salvage the situation, and help the Weasleys to snap out of their shock and join in.

3. Maybe worst of all, no-one ever mentioned it ever again. Ron and Ginny were fine afterwards, no sign of depression or shock. How can you grieve for someone when they're not in the slightest bit distraught? It was badly concieved and carried out.

4. The film was quite slow - having dull action in the middle wasn't the answer. A big finale with a betrayal, action, a revelation and a funeral would have made up for the rest of the film - building to a climax is nothing new. Instead it just fizzled to a close. An anti-climax is not a good idea for a film, if there's been no real action since the beginning of the 2.5 hours, then it's really bad.

5. They can't put everything that's in the book in the film, but please don't try to 'improve' the story with sub-par additions. Yates said he didn't want two battles at Hogwarts in subsequent films. Other franchises have had similar battles in more than one film, so can HP. The battle at the end of DH would be a lot bigger with a far bigger range of people fighting. He could have used different venues in the castle. Instead he used the idea of an attack on the Burrow, which is also in DH - except it'll be in the first DH film so we'll see it a lot sooner, unlike the final Battle of Hogwarts which will be in the second film.

Woot Woot!

A scene was scripted, though IDK if it was shot, where Greyback paws over Ginny, going on about how she smells and Harry rescues her, much like in the video game. I can only think they thought it too creepy to keep in.

In terms of menace, that criticism also applies to the books - like how they always wait until the end of the school year to really go for it.

That would've lessened the impact. The whole point was that they were constantly under the threat of danger and everything could be ruined in a heartbeat. Fixing it in the next moment would've undone that.

"That would've lessened the impact. The whole point was that they were constantly under the threat of danger and everything could be ruined in a heartbeat. Fixing it in the next moment would've undone that."

I do get your point EmmaRiddle, and you're right about the effect that fixing it on the spot would have had. However what I meant was that if they really wanted to show that they were under constant threat of danger, it should be illustrated with something that couldn't be easily fixed. My friend asked why they didn't try to put the fire out as we watched the film. Their standing around not trying to fix things, wasn't as effective as a situation where there's genuinely no way of fixing things.

Say Bill was in this film - if he'd been mauled by Greyback, as in the book, the audience would know that Ron's brother might be a werewolf and there was nothing anyone could do, no matter how magical. They'd just have to wait, totally powerless. That this young man with everything to live for had had his life permanently changed in one moment would be far more moving. Especially as the best case scenario was that his good looking face was now seriously scarred. That was the sort of example that would really have demonstrated how something could be permanently ruined in a heartbeat, not something that can be easily fixed by magic - and probably will be unless Bill and Fleur get married by a smoking ruin!

I just don't think this scene demonstrated the dangers of war in the way they meant it to. Destruction of property/things is easily rectified in this world, so it had less of an impact - especially as it was immediately forgotten. If George had lost his ear here, it could have made a difference - the twins would never be identical again, after one shock event, it would be a permanent reminder. Sadly they decided to skip using a valid piece of canon to add weight to their rather average invention.

I think we'll have to agree to disagree though, this scene is quite polarizing!

omg this is so exciting!! I can't wait to see pics and/or videos from the set!!
To HannahLongbtottom, I totally agree with you about the scene, I guess I didn't see it before. And, yeh, they are wizards and they can rebiuld, so it didn't really mess up DH at all, but the emotional and dramatic effect was perfect. Thanks! :)

Amen, Amen, Amen, AMen, Amen, A THOUSAND TIMES AMEN! :bow:

I find it quite strange that in the 4th film Fleur was at school and Ron asked her to the dance and now three years later shes getting married to Bill, Rons older brother.

:)

Yes but she was older than Ron in the 4th film & book.Had to be over 17 to enter the Triwizard thing.
So now she would be about 20/21 when she marries Bill.It seems that alot of wizarding couples get married young,nothing strange in that.And it follows the book. ;)

That would actually be very cool, almost like the way they will most likely do that for Dumbledore's life story.

The wedding scene is very key, and I'm glad it is being left in the movie. It just wouldn't have been the same if it had been cut.

hahaha i agree with ya i mean if the burrow wasnt attacked to be honest i dont think i would of felt that they were a real threat to harry or anyone. therefore with this in the film you see that yeah they can get you anywhere.

No, I quite agree with you as well! They'll probably have some reference to the Burrow burning down in DH, unless they decide to have the wedding somewhere else, but that just wouldn't do! But yes, I agree with you all the way!

I hope it is at the Burrow but if its been burnt down it will be interesting to see how they re build & return it to the final films.

OK, we've seen shots of Bill with his face all slashed up from certain scenes already shot, how are they gonna explain that, is Greyback gonna be one of the ones who attacks?

I hope harry dances with Ginny in this scene ; ):r/hr: :r/hr:

I agree with what ppl on here are saying about the burrow burning down ...it was interesting for the film
BUT
they should just have stuck w/ JK's material cuz they really messed up on a lot of the parts in the film. If they penetrated the burrow already then why couldnt they just kill Harry or take him hostage or something. There were so many things the death eaters could have done. There were member of the Order of the Phoenix there for god's sake! Kill them all is what they should have done! Plus where the hell was Ron in all of this if he was in the house wouldnt they have to run in and get him!!!! He was still inside and they were all standing there watching it burn!

It didnt have the "magic" that the previous movies had, excluding OOTP (which's the worst HP film yet). The burrow is a very homely place and they shouldnt have gone that far as to burn it...im just glad they're holding the wedding there.

In addition, isnt the burrow penetrated in the 7th book???!!!! That's when it matters. Anyways the following scene had no connection to any other scenes afterwards. It burned and they went back to school and lived happily ever after???!!! They put in an extra scene when they could have put in a KEY scene they forgot!!! What happened to the diadem when Harry hides the book? They couldnt jst have Harry hide the book and touch the diadem!!!! How are they gonna find it if Ginny is the one who hide it! Harry had NO idea where the freaking Diadem is. That wouldnt be hard! WOW i really went off topic there! lol.

Alright thats one of the unimportant scenes that will be added to the movies

I agree with them adding the scene in HBP! And can't wait to see both DHs!!!!! Yay for the wedding!

Well, I already knew they confirmed the wedding scene. I dunno how it'll turn out, though. I've been let down too many times. :(

Ooh, August 10th? That's one day before I start school.

well, if the wedding is held at the burrow, it will have to be re-built and explained in the film that it was re-built after the fire. I disagreed with the burning of the Burrow....it was absolutely unneccessary.

Once again, Amen, and AMEN! It would have been like, to draw a fantasy parallel, the Nazgul burning down Bag End in Hobbiton. The Death Eaters in HBP showed about as much menace as Anakin Skywalker did in Attack of the Clones. These people are supposed to be, to draw a HISTORIC parallel, what the SS was to Hitler. God could I go on for months and months about just how much this movie ATE. :hairpull:

I cant wait to see who they picked to play Xeno Lovegood. Should be good.

great !! it will be a great scene.

Yay! I'm looking forward to this scene immensly! However, it is going to be very very confusing for those who haven't read the books; there's been no mention of Bill and Fleur's engagement in the movies. But oh well, should still be awesome.

I understand why they needed the burrow scene in the sixth but it shouldnt have replaced the ending. Im so excited about the wedding. I wasnt sure if it was going to be in because they never introduced Bill. The wedding symbolizes that there is good in the world even though its surrounded by bad times.

That argument can be made for the books too - why not try and kill Harry earlier than May/June, every year? It's because we know the narrative would be dead as well, otherwise. Those are points at which you're asked to suspend your disbelief, yes even in the novels.

You just said it yourself; Ginny. If that means she doesn't hide in the RoR for the entire battle, like she does in the book, I'll be happy.

That would be Rhys Ifans.

Ron: My brother Bill, he got attacked by Fenrir before you got here, Harry.

Easy. :lol:.

What is strange, is everyone marrying their high school sweethearts. But, you know, some of them could have got divorced *cough* Harry and Ginny *cough*.

I see your point, too. I like that the scene is there, and I see its intention but, like you, I think it could've been executed a bit better. But, at the same time, I can sympathise with Kloves, because in a magical world, it is difficult to come up with something that cannot be undone by waving a wand, or administering a potion, etc...

Congrats Bill and Fleur!!
 

Well, I have to agree, I was never so sad as when they burned down the Burrow. And I didnt realize until I saw it, how big the Burrow really was.... Its a great movie, even if they killed my favorite character. Glad to hear that the burrow wil be rebuilt in time for the wedding..lol...:luvpot:

waiting 4 deathley hallows and the scene .

cool cant wait for the wedding scene i hope they make it how it was in the book

I swear I did NOT hear that...might have had to do with the large daiquiri I had next to me, and the fact that my friend and I were cracking jokes at the screen the whole time. :xd:

So exciting! But doesn't David get a new costume? :lol: Actually Remus is supposed to be shabby so I guess not...it seems kind of stupid that they've included the wedding and maybe the attack as well because the Burrow was attacked in HBP. Repetitive possibly?

i agree, like we were never told about what happened after that... so is the borrow burned down and if so where is the wedding to be held???

Freaking YEA!!!! I wated to see Flem in the last movie and didnt!!!! WOOT!!!

The wedding is at the Burrow.

Maybe it'll look different since it's in the day? Or maybe it won't happen...I'd prefer to see the overtaking of the Ministry and the death of Scrimgeour.

That was my attempt at DH scripting. :lol:.

I wonder if they're going to have Harry disguised as a Weasley...

Yeah, have they cast "Barney" Weasley? And what about Dear old Auntie Muriel? :ron3:

I believe we have an Auntie Muriel. Played by Matyelok Gibbs, I think. I dunno about Barney, though. Hmmm...

thanks
 

I came across this forum by chance and discovered this is one of the best thread ever. Thanks u guys so much for the information you give. So cool.
