There's a (much less flattering) group photo of
him with Natalia Tena (Tonks), Devon Murray (Seamus), and the actress
who played Angelina in the first three films here:
http://www.snitchseeker.com/gallery/albums/userpics/84186/normal_2523280334_d41ec11e73_b.jpg
And here's one where he appears to be some sort of (punk?) rock
musician--he has a pierced lip (WHY???) and rather greasy hair:

You know, he looks EXACTLY like a younger version of my friend Sean 0.0
I'll see if I can get his permission to post a picture.  It's uncanny.

Apparently, Trelawney's not going to be in HBP. 

http://harrypotterspage.com/news.php/2008/05/30/no-trelawney-in-the-half-blood-prince-film123.html

I suppose that Harry rather than Trelqwney will hear Draco whooping in
the RoR, but there won't be any predictions of the lightning-struck
tower--and who's going to tell Harry that Snape was the eavesdropper?
Dumbledore? Why would he do that? Trelawney's accidental revelation
may be a small scene but it's essential!

Then, again, the makers of the OoP film left out the information that
Snape sent the Order to the MoM and they had Harry hear part of the
Prophecy directly from the orb, so I should have known better to
expect faithfulness to the book in Prophecy-related matterss. How
they're going to work in Snape's request to LV to save Lily ("the
Prince's Tale") and make it's importance clear under these
circumstances, I can't guess. Don't they know diamonds from dross? I
guess not!

Can any one confirm or deny that Hugh Laurie (star of House M.D)
will be playing the part of Scrimgeour in the HP Movies?

I'm sure I saw some video footage of him in  the role, but can't
for the life of me remember where I saw it. 

I notice that Scrimgeour isn't listed at IMDB.com as being in
Half-blood Prince, which in turn makes me wonder how they
could possibly have video footage of him in the role.

Personally, I thought Billy Connelly would have made a good
Scrimgeour. He certainly has the hair for it.

He would bring allot to the movies.

There was nothing about the eavesdropping in the movies so far, iirc. I 
suspect they just wrote this part of the story off the movie, that's 
all. Listen to DD's speech at the end of OotP - he doesn't say anything 
about the eavesdropper or about LV only knowing the first half of the 
prophecy.

Right, and now that he knows that Dumbledore was gay, he probably

known as "that guy who always plays wizards" :-). I never liked 
McKellen much, but I believe that his Gandalf is just the best that can

bboyminn:

Colin/Hugh was in Chamber of Secrets which was released in 2004,
which means it was filmed in 2003.

In 2003, Hugh Mitchell was involved in three projects, as is
seen from his IMDB.com entry -

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1087234/

# Henry VIII (2003) (TV) .... Prince Edward
# Wondrous Oblivion (2003) .... Hargreaves
# State of Mind (2003) (TV) .... Adam Watson 

He had no projects in 2004, but had two in 2005, two in 2006,
and now three in 2007. The third of 2007 was Order of the
Phoenix video game. Though I admit I didn't notice the (VG)
for video game when I originally posted. So, perhaps, he is 
not returning to the movies after all. 

Still, it would be interesting if he did, even if he wasn't 
identified as Colin Creevey in the movie. 

As a side note, I see from Tom Felton's IMDB listing that he
has a small part in a movie called 'The Dissappeared' where
he played Simon.

I wonder if he is simply sitting back and enjoying the ride
and not actively seeking roles, or if he is not being offerred
any scripts. He is certainly talented, and has more experience
that the other actors. He was, after all, in the Academy Award
nominated 'Anna and the King' (1990). 

I know he wants to be involved in fishing, but all the money
from acting could finance a lot of fishing. 

Just a few thoughts.

While Hugh is certainly taller than the small boy we remember,
he doesn't seem exceptionally tall. I'd say average or slightly
above. 

These all seem to be candid 'day in the life' shots, so you
do get a good sense of him.

Carol responds:

Just to be clear, when I said upthread that "the eavesdropping scene
is definitely in," I meant Harry eavesdropping on Snape and Draco, not
Snape eavesdropping on DD and Trelawney. And we know that the scene
with Harry eavesdropping is in because of the photos (now removed from
Leaky) of Snape and Draco together at Slughorn's party (neither
looking happy) and of Snape standing in a corridor watching Draco
walk, or rather, slouch angrily away.

I'm not sure whether I confused you or not, but I thought I should
clarify just in case.

With regard to the original eavesdropping (never an actual scene in
the books), apparently they intend to leave that out--or have DD tell
Harry (whose enmity for Snape needs to be at white heat, IMO, when
Snape kills DD), the better to make Snape look like a murdering
traitor against whom Harry can desire revenge. 

But that aside, I think it's a sad (if minor) loss not to have
Trelawney shuffling her cards and foreshadowing events on the tower,
which otherwise will hit nonreading viewers unprepared. (I'm afraid
that HBP will be like my memory of "Camelot"--mostly light and fluffy
for half or three-quarters of the film and then suddenly, inexplicably
dark. "Spinner's End" can only do so much in setting the tone since it
will be at or very near the beginning of the movie.)

The whole Prophecy motif was pretty much ruined by the OoP film. How
will they account for Snape's remorse and "return to our side" in DH
II without it?

Carol, noting that the corridor photo of Snape and Draco is still up at

http://www.snitchseeker.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=407&pos=0

and a darkish version of the Snape and Draco at the party photo is
still up at

http://www.snitchseeker.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-13509

I expect that they'll be asked to take both photos offline soon, so,
erm, download them while you can and pretend you didn't hear that
advice from me!

good publicity online instead of worrying about copyright and/or
trademark violations

Yes, don't worry, I know that :-). I was responding to you wondering
who will tell Harry about Snape being the eavesdropper (of the
Prophecy). As you say, there is nothing in the movies about this
eavesdropping business, so they don't need Trelawney for that. Do you
think this means we won't see Trelawney any more? If she is not in
HBP, is there still a chance we'll see her throwing crystal balls at
DEs in DH? I wonder ...

Steph:
Nice!  Snitchsneeker also has the newest picture of the Trio that WB
made Leaky remove.  It's a bit blurry, though, so I found a clearer
one here:
http://www.rupertgrint.net/images/trioburrowhbp.jpg 

It's obviously Ron's room, and I'm guessing they are discussing
Harry's "lessons" with DD after they've visited Slughorn.

There's also a new photo on Snitchsneeker with Harry and Ginny
hugging. Here it is:
http://www.snitchseeker.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=121&pos=1

I can't believe that WB is being so stingy with releasing photos and
the teaser trailer, on the other hand it's a good strategy if you want
to get the fans excited about the film.

Well, the movie is about magic after all, so maybe Flitwick drank 
some Rejuvenation potion (or maybe some of that Shrinking solution 
which turned Trevor into a tadpole :-)). But, seriously, you just 
don't change an established character so drastically unless you have 
a really good reason for this, and there is none in this case. It's 
not only his physical appearance - I can't imagine Book!Flitwick 
calling anyone "idiot", even if his hand *was* pierced with a 
fork :-)!

I know this is an old post, but I am very behind in emails.  Anyway- Flitwick looks odd to me now.  BUT- we know he wouldn't call anyone an idiot.  He would simply make them write lines that say, "I am a wizard, not a baboon brandishing a stick."

Hehe, "brandishing a fork", more like :-)! But you are right, Flitwick 
wouldn't call even a student "an idiot"(he is not Snape after all :-)), 
and it's really hard for me to imagine him insulting like this another 
teacher. Even Snape is respectful to his colleagues (except for 
Lockhart :-)), and Flitwick is such a gentle person, calling Hagrid an 
idiot was completely out of character for him, IMO.


zanooda, who notices a lot of OOC behavior in HP movies ... ;-(

Though I'm still reserving judgment, it seems that Dan/Rupert/Emma
will make a mini-movie just for the Universal Theme Park.

for a laugh, click on the video contained in this last article. It's
is clips from Philosopher's Stone with new story narration apparently
by Gilber Gottfried.

For what it's worth.

zanooda:

I don't know, The Leaky site says that WB denies it all, so I'm not
sure what to believe. Here is the link, although I'm not sure it works:

http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/2008/6/18/wb-denies-new-jkr-trio-movie-for-harry-potter-theme-park


If the link doesn't work - it was in the news on Leaky on the 18th, iirc.

Cassie: Actually, the clip is narrated by Brad Neely (I almost thought it
was Brad Douriff at first).  There's a bunch of clips of him doing narration
like this for the movie on YouTube ^_^

bboyminn:

Well, the denial statement is pretty qualified. For example,
it says the JKR hasn't written a 'script' for the prequel
(recently written and sold for charity) or otherwise, for
the theme park.

Since when has JKR ever written any script? Who says she even
has to write the story; she only needs to approve any story
or script the theme park comes up with. 

Perhaps they just chose their word unwisely. 

Still, all we have to do is wait and see.

OK, so this might not be the right page to post this but I was looking
at the site page for the movie on yahoo movies and on IMDB I didn't
see actors/characters listed for Bill or Fluer. How can they possibly
be leaving that part out? Just wondering if anyone knew about that?

Zara:
I believe your information is correct, and they have not been cast. In 
making a movie adaptation of a book, it is sometimes useful to reduce 
the number of characters, because in two hours, you can only introduce 
so many and have audiences care about them. 

When this is done, the function of the removed characters tends to be 
given to some character that makes the cut. In HBP, this couple is just 
a nice little romantic side-story, so there's not even anything to 
rewrite - they, and their scenes, will be missed by no one but book 
fans of this couple. But in DH, this couple's wedding and home figure 
prominently. My guess (and it is a popular one in the wide fan world 
out there) is that Lupin and Tonks will take their place as the couple 
getting married, and where Harry goes after Malfoy Manor. This will 
make it all the more afecting when little Teddy becomes an orphan, I 
suppose.

Not all the characters are listed on imdb.com the character list is still pretty new and they are probable still adding. Think about it there is tons and tons of characters out there. Harry Potter is a just a drop in the bucket so to say.

Harry & the Potters is playing in my area tomorrow night. I'm going to 
try and get out to see them. I've heard some of their music on the 
Leaky Cauldron's podcast. They're a riot!
