Video: Emma Thompson talks short Deathly Hallows shoot for Trelawney & sister Sophie

In a new interview, actress Emma Thompson spoke about her small role as Professor Sybill Trelawney in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and what her two-day stint at production consisted of. Emma also briefly discussed the fact that her sister, Sophie Thompson, was cast in the final films, as well (as Mafalda Hopkirk), and a movie still she saw of Daniel Radcliffe as Harry dragging Mafalda's body off in London. That can be viewed below.

"They were very quick," she admitted of her two days on set. "I just had to do a bit of waving of a wand and a bit of 'ooooo-ing' over dead people, because of course they just had to fit absolutely everyone in."

Thompson said the guest-actor-heavy shooting schedule felt like a "conveyor belt of characters, as this extraordinary machine came to its end."

"It was incredible to see everyone and just sort of quickly say hello and goodbye."

"Absolutely everyone in equity has been in it," Thompson said of the franchise's lengthy cast list. "Including all my family, practically. My sister just finished. I don't know what the name of character is; she's got a major role in this last one."

"I've got a photo of her with Daniel dragging her off somewhere ... so I don't know what [they're doing]; I haven't seen it yet."

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be released November 19, 2010 and July 15, 2011.

how can you not know the name of the character your own sister is playing? lol oooh i realy like that scene where they take the polyuice potion and go into the ministry of magic :)

:lol: That's funny that her sister was in the movie as well!

That's great that she is in the movie. I didn't think that she was going to be because of scheduling conflicts.

This is great!
I was distraught when she said she would not return, DH would not be DH without Trelawney throwing crystal balls!

Interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing both sisters on the big screen for Deathly Hallows. Emma Thompson does a great job as portraying Treawlney. :)

I'm glad that they fit in everyone that they could! It's a must, especially for us hardcore fans that recognize everything and everyone. :lmao:

And I love how she did that little Trelawney "ooooohhh." I missed that. :xd:

Treawlney, I like her.

Aw! I wish Emma would show the picture of Dan dragging off Mafalda's body. I'm really excited for that scene :)

neat video, she looks good. :)
I wanna see the picture of Daniel Radcliffe and her sister.

"I've got a photo of Daniel dragging her off somewhere."

I just started cracking up when I read that XD

Yeah, I saw the picture! It's Harry, Ron & Hermione in their Ministry disguises, they actually look a lot like them! :D

Nice interview! It's funny that her sister is in the same movie! :xd:

Am so glad they put everyone in! Emma Thompson is one great actress!

Hasn't she read the books or even found out the story line somewhere...didn't she do the script read through with the cast way back last year?

there is an undertone of negativity in her latest interviews about Harry Potter...she sees it as a giant, robotic machine of sorts.....

brilliant!can't wait for the movie! :P
