Post Harry Potter cast, crew reveal deleted & unfilmed scenes they wish were in the movies

The cast and crew of the Harry Potter films revealed a few deleted scenes they shot that never got the included in the series but that they would have loved to see on the big screen. Among them included Fred's actual death for James Phelps, Luna's Quidditch commentary for Evanna Lynch, David Yates not delving further into Snape being the Half-Blood Prince, Jessie Cave's audition as Lavender with Rupert Grint in the Gryffindor common room, and actual wand duelling during the final battle for Alfie Enoch. That can be read here.


James Phelps: For me, personally, I guess it was the actual death of Fred. That was a bit disappointing, but I guess it kind of worked more into Oliver [Phelps] and Rupert [Grint], seeing their emotion in that way. So a lot of the fans so it in that sense, when they hadn’t thought about it before.
Oliver Phelps: I think the de-gnoming of the garden in the second film. That would have been brilliant.
James Phelps: It isn’t [politically correct], is it?
Oliver Phelps: I was really looking forward to being able to do that. Shame.


Evanna Lynch: [Luna's Quidditch commentary] was never filmed. It was in the script and I got so psyched about it, because it was done really well. I find sport incredibly boring, so I would like to see Luna’s take on it. I got invited to the Quidditch World Cup, to commentate, and sadly it conflicted with this. But one day I will get there and I will commentate that match.


David Bradley:
There was a story where [Filch] encountered them trying to hide a baby dragon up in the tower in the first book. When I saw the script, I said I’m sorry they missed… Because I had this wonderful line that was in the book.

When we came to do the second movie, when Filch is waiting at the top of the stairs with Mrs. Norris, and the two kids come in having been demolished by the Whomping Willow in the car and they come up the stairs, I said to Chris Columbus, I said, “There was a line in the first book. Can I use it here?” And he said, “Yeah, go for it.” So I said the line, “Oh dear, we are in trouble.” And it got a laugh in the theater when it was playing, and I thought that’s good, because they let me say a line from the first book, but transposed it into the second movie. That was a line that I really wanted to say in the first film but I got to say it eventually.


Jessie Cave: Oh gosh, not necessarily in the books, but at my screen test they had placed biscuits there for Lavender to play with, and I just got such a kick out of that. I had such fun with Rupert, just kind of dangling biscuits in front of his face and making him feel so uncomfortable. So I wish that had been in the film. And I thought that it would be! I thought I’d done the biscuits so well! Obviously scripts take months to write.


Alfie Enoch: It was actually my last day of shooting on the last film. I was up on the battlements with the Weasley Twins, and we were defending the castle from some of those spells. You know, you saw that fantastic scene where all the Death Eaters were sending in those spells and breaking down the wall, and then they go and they’re actually attacking the stone of the castle.

That’s something. We’re up against a green screen, and I thought, this the first time I’ve actually got a wand in my hand let loose. I was having a brilliant time. I got so into it I actually fell off the podium, which was quite embarrassing. That was such a sort of fun finale. I was sorry that didn’t make it in.


A lot of people who didn’t read the books were confused by the sixth film. Snape says he’s the Half-Blood Prince, but you don’t tell us what that means. Did you ever shoot any of that?
David Yates:
No, we didn’t. That’s basically it. We had that one haunting moment on the hillside. And you’re right, maybe that’s something we should have tried to weave a little bit more into it. […] The movie’s called The Half-Blood Prince and we just find out… yeah. We wrestled with that so much.


David Barron:
But there were two times actually, I’m jut trying to think which film it was now… Six, Dumbledore’s death? We cut the funeral, the big funeral, because it felt like there was another ending, another big ending, that the film couldn’t really support.

Actually no, I’m just going to back to something else. Even in the fourth film, actually, we were going to take out the Mer-people. And she said, “Oh, well, they have a part to play in the future.” Of course that was in the big funeral scene. We didn’t know that. We were going to take Kreacher out [of the fifth film] because… it was a big story in the book, because actually you learn that Kreacher is a horrible person, partly because Sirius treated him really badly.

That’s why he hates Sirius so much, and because Sirius treated him so badly, he hates him and he lures him to his death. We didn’t really have time to tell that whole Kreacher story, and so we found another way of getting Sirius to the Ministry of Magic. We sent her the script, she said, “Oh, I see you’ve taken Kreacher out.” “Well, yeah…” She said, “Hmm… You might want to reconsider that. He has a part to play in the future.” So then we had to find away of just putting enough Kreacher in to allow people to know who he was, so that he was there for the final segment.

Well, actually I think Dumbledore’s funeral was something we all really wanted to have. But it just felt like an ending too many, so we had to leave it out. And I’m thinking of S.P.E.W… It has marvelous color, marvelous character, but it was not necessary for the plot. Were trying to, from the third film on, was tell the story from Harry’s point of view, because it was the only way to find a clear way through. So unfortunately S.P.E.W. fell by the wayside. But we were all upset. We all wanted to do it.

I was a little disappointed with the 19 years later scene, I heard that they actually filmed a longer scene and I was really hoping that we would ge to see that one at some point.

Having read the books before seeing the movies, I was sooo emotionally connected to Dumbledore's funeral and Fred's death scene (having cried like a fool while reading both parts) and was disappointed to see both scenes were left out. In some cases, I think they may have focused a bit too much on the forward movement of the movies and left out crucial plot points in favor of that. It kind of kills those 'aha' moments that you experience while reading the books...

Aww.. That's great! But I'm so happy that David Yates actually did make mistakes in the films and that he did get peepl confused. (I'm sure if you ask people who just watched the movies they would have no idea that Lupin and Tonks were ven married!)Afte seeing the final fim, my cuzzin literally txtd me "Is Snape Harry's dad?" I had to explain it to her, and she got it in the end, but really!

The biggest plotline that was cut from the films that still has me absolutely shaking in fury is the relationship between Tonks and Lupin. She doesn't say a word to him in Order of the Phoenix, then she's calling him "sweetheart" all of a sudden in HBP, then she's calling him her husband in DH1, then Lupin mentions his son once in the last movie. One of the most beautiful, complex, heartbreaking couples, and they get reduced to a little throwaway line in each film. The fact that this was cut from the films was inexcusable, and I'm at a loss as to why Rowling allowed it, since she said Lupin was one of her favorite characters.

I think we are all disappointed with all that didn't go into the movies, but they have to make cuts somewhere. I just hope we get a lot of deleted scenes in 2012...sounds like something they would now that is all over...maybe?

My hopes are not high for anything like that happening. Have you noticed in the last few DVDs all of the deleted scenes they've shown don't even have the finished effects added on? There's green screen everywhere. I've seen a few movie stills on calendars from a few scenes that were deleted, it looks like they shot a slightly different ending for Goblet of Fire that had Harry sitting near a waterfall & being joined by Ron & Hermione, and another from POA with more of Ron & Hermione arguing about whether Crookshanks ate Scabbers. Other than that, all I can think of is maybe, MAYBE getting to see some Peeves.
