*Instead of Harry being naked when arriving at [[King's Cross]] he is instead fully clothed; he also sees Voldemort in the image of a red, slimy squirming fetus, not unlike the fragile, baby-like form that he'd taken in the film version of ''[[Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire]]'' prior to the Dark Magic ritual in the graveyard with Harry.

Dumbledore also doesn't explain the reason why Harry's wand repelled Voldemort's during the [[Battle over Little Whinging]]. As mentioned above, neither he nor Aberforth explain the former's backstory, and thus, Dumbledore does not beg Harry's forgiveness for his actions in his youth.

*The film retains [[Fenrir Greyback]]'s attack on [[Lavender Brown]], however the outcome is considerably different in that Hermione blasts Greyback out a window, presumably to his death (in the novel he is only stunned and others kill him). The film also strongly implies that Lavender dies, whereas she survives the attack in the book.

David Yates, who directed the preceding two films, directed both parts, while Steve Kloves returned to script[3]. The first part was released internationally on November 18 2010 and the following day in the United Kingdom and the United States, with the second released on 15 July 2011.Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; invalid names, e.g. too many Production of the two films occurred concurrently,[4] and treated as if it were one film.[5] The idea to split the films had been around since the middle of 2007,[3] but only really came into serious consideration after producer David Heyman was able to talk to writer Steve Kloves when the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike ended and Heyman had Rowling's approval.[5]
On 12 March2008, Warner Bros. additionally confirmed that the film would be split into two, to do justice to the book.[6]David Yates, director of Order of the Phoenix and Half-Blood Prince will return to direct and Steve Kloves is going to write the screenplay. According to Warner Bros. executive Alan F. Horn it will allow "an extra hour and a half to celebrate what this franchise has been and do justice to all the words and ideas in the amazing story."[4] Heyman described the workings behind the split: "Deathly Hallows is so rich, the story so dense and there is so much that is resolved that, after discussing it with Rowling, we came to the conclusion that two parts were needed."[4] Due to the WGA strike, Kloves was not able to start work on the script until it ended.[7]
Before David Yates was officially chosen to direct the film, others had expressed an interest in the job. Alfonso Cuarón, director of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, had said that he would be "tempted" to return to direct.[8]Guillermo del Toro, who passed on Prisoner of Azkaban, had expressed interest in directing Deathly Hallows,[9] but an increased workload ruled him out of the project.[10]
Heyman noted that the films will be a closer recreation of the books than the previous films because of the length a two-part adaptation entails.[11]Daniel Radcliffe said: "This is a road film, particularly in Part One of the film. People have been so used to seeing Harry Potter at Hogwarts and we're just not there for the first part of the film. That seems to have really freshened things up, and hopefully will get people seeing the films with fresh eyes again, because it's just a totally different look when you're not just sat in the same room the whole time."[11]
Although Yates had retained composer Nicholas Hooper for Half-Blood Prince, John Williams (who composed the scores to the first three films) had expressed interest in returning to score the film - however he did not state which part he would be contributing to. In January 2010Alexandre Desplat, a French composer, was confirmed to produce the score for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I. [12] In November 2010 it was confirmed that Alexandre Desplat (despite many fans wanting Williams) would compose the second part.
Yates and Heyman have noted that some of the events of this film had an effect on the way the sixth film was written.[13]
In the wake of the success of the 3-D film Avatar in late 2009, Warner Bros. announced that the Deathly Hallows films will be converted to 3-D for showing in 3-D.[15]However, the first film was not released in 3-D due to time constraints. The second film is nonetheless being widely released in traditional 2-D as well for ticket-buyers who prefer that viewing option.
Deathly Hallows: Part 2 opened to critical acclaim along with instant commercial success: on the film review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an overall approval rating of 96% and it set many new box office records, including biggest opening day in the United States ($91,071,119), in the United Kingdom ($14.8 million) and in 13 other countries[16], biggest US and worldwide opening weekend ($169,189,427; $483,189,427) and biggest US midnight release ($43,500,000).[17][18]
Pre-production began on January 26, 2009, and filming began on February 19, 2009 at Leavesden Film Studios, where the previous six films had been shot, and Pinewood Studios.[19][20] Eduardo Serra is the cinematographer.[21] Yates said that the film will be shot "with loads of hand-held cameras. I want to shake things up every time I go into this world. I like experimenting as we go along."[22] Filming is reportedly over, ending the decade long of filming for the cast.[23]
During production at Leavesden, Radcliffe's stunt double David Holmes suffered a serious spinal injury during filming of an aerial sequence. Holmes fell to the ground following an explosion which was part of the stunt.[24][25][26][27] It is probable that the aerial sequence and explosion is the Battle over Little Whinging. This left Holmes paralysed from the waist down and it is reported he will be unable to ever walk again.[28]
Shooting schedule
David Heyman gave additional details on the filming schedule on the two films: "We finished the sixth film which'll be coming out next summer and we start filming the seventh which we'll be breaking into two parts for a 54 week shoot starting in February (2009)."[29][30]
Test shoots were done on January 26, 2009 as Emma Watson revealed on her Official Website.
[31][32]
Unfortunately, just days later it was reported that a stunt double for Daniel Radcliffe was seriously injured while testing an explosion scene.[33]
Filming for both parts started officially on February 15, 2009[34] and ended on June 12, 2010. [35]
Daniel Radcliffe confirmed that the Epilogue scenes will be re-shot, thus making it problematic for make-up artists to come up with a wig for Emma Watson who cut her hair in August. The shootings will take place at Christmas, on the set of Leavesden this time, not at King's Cross, as initially planned.
Filming on location
On April 21, 2009, photos of Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) and Emma Watson (Hermione Granger) with a tent camped in a open field along with the Deathly Hallows staff and crew have been circling around the web. The report says that it was shot in Scotland.[36]
On the same day, The-Leaky-Cauldron.org first reported that location filming for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows has been set in Piccadilly Circus and Shaftesbury Avenue portion of London, England.
Hundreds of photos of Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint including the crew & staff & 200+ extras for the film production has been released on the net during shooting hours from midnight to 6 a.m. and on the next day, April 22. [37][38][39]
On April 22, BBC News reported that Deathly Hallows filming on the coastline of Wales will take place from 11th to 15th May 2009 on Freshwater West beach of the Pembrokeshire National Park where the scenes for Shell Cottage are said to be shot.[40]
On 24th of April, The T-L-C website released the first photos of the Shell Cottage while under construction on the coastline in the Pembrokeshire area of Wales.[41]
Various pictures can be seen of the cast of HP-DH filming scenes from the film on this Site. These are the Shell Cottage scenes, most likely.
They started shooting the forest scenes at Swinley Forest on 10 June 2009.[42]
Numerous photos of the main casts including pictures of Sophie Thompson (Mafalda Hopkirk), David O'Hara (Albert Runcorn), and Steffan Rhodri (Reg Cattermole) and the set reports from Deathly Hallows filming in Whitehall, London have emerged on-line since 28 June 2009, which appear to be the scene in which Harry, Hermione and Ron infiltrated the Ministry of Magic to obtain the real Horcrux locket from Dolores Umbridge.[43]
Stunt sequences for Deathly Hallows were shot Thursday (July 23) and Friday night (July 24) in Dartford Tunnel in Kent, England, with Harry and Hagrid's doubles (Daniel Radcliffe and Robbie Coltrane were not filming) driving against the traffic on Sirius's motorcycle. This scene follows the Seven Potters escapade in Privet Drive; Harry's double is also noted to be pointing his wand at an unknown enemy. Photos from the location shoot have emerged on-line since 27th July, 2009.[44]
According to the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry, which is hosting a Harry Potter Exhibition, some of David Thewlis' costumes were sent to the UK because Thewlis will need to wear them for the wedding scenes. This filming began on August 10, 2009.[45]
Special effects
Harry Potter films' producer David Heyman, once revealed in a interview that they will also use a combination of make-up and computer effects to make Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, Bonnie Wright and Tom Felton look older for the Epilogue chapter. They are very similar to the special effects that were used in the film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button starring Brad Pitt.
Both parts will be written by Steve Kloves, who wrote the first, second, third, fourth, and sixth films, and directed by David Yates, who directed the previous two films. David Heyman and David Barron are producing both parts.[208]
Academy Award-nominated cinematographer Eduardo Serra has been appointed to be the Director of Photography.[209]
Special effects will supervised by Paul J. Franklin.[210]
The film picks up where Part 1 left off, with Lord Voldemort stealing the Elder Wand from Albus Dumbledore's tomb and shooting a large bolt of lightning into the sky. It then cuts to Hogwarts which is no longer a colorful castle of magic, but a shadowy concentration camp surrounded by Dementors with the students being marched through the Entrance Courtyard. Severus Snape stands in the top of the castle and watches the students with a sad expression.
At Shell Cottage, Harry Potter sits in front of Dobby's grave after the funeral, gazing into the one way mirror. He suspects that there is a Horcrux in Bellatrix Lestrange's vault at Gringotts, so he, Ron, and Hermione strike a deal with Griphook: Griphook will get them into Gringotts Wizarding Bank to find the Horcrux if they give him the Sword of Gryffindor, a bargain to which the trio reluctantly agree. Harry then questions Ollivander, who examines and identifies the stolen wands of Bellatrix Lestrange and Draco Malfoy. While he confirms that Draco's wand is safe to use, he cautions Harry about Bellatrix's wand, as it is "unyielding" and might be dangerous unless its allegiance has changed. Harry then asks him if he knows about the Deathly Hallows and Ollivander claims he does not think they exist, although Harry knows he has told Voldemort about the Elder Wand through his connection. After Harry tells Ollivander that Voldemort has acquired the Elder Wand, the latter warns Harry that he really doesn't stand a chance in defeating Voldemort if what he has heard is true.
With Harry and Griphook under the Invisibility Cloak, Hermione disguised as Bellatrix and Ron as a foreign wizard with bushy facial hair, the trio and Griphook Apparate to Gringotts. During the first phase of the mission, Harry and Ron are forced to use the Imperius Curse on Bogrod to cover up Hermione's unsuccessful impersonation of Bellatrix. They manage to get into the vault despite their disguises being removed by The Thief's Downfall, and inside the vault, they find Helga Hufflepuff's Cup, the Horcrux, but set off the Geminio curse, causing everything they touch to multiply exponentially. Griphook takes the sword from them after they get the cup, saying that he never said he would help them get out, only in. He runs for it and calls security; the trio are almost crushed by the gold and captured, but Hermione gets them to jump on the back of a dragon kept as a security measure. Setting the dragon free, it wreaks havoc as it kills several goblins, including Bogrod, who was still under the control of Ron's Imperius Curse. The dragon crashes through the roof and flies off with the trio on its back. After jumping off the dragon into a lake, Harry has a vision of Voldemort furiously killing Griphook and many other Gringotts employees and personnel at Malfoy Manor for allowing his Horcrux to get stolen. Choosing to keep Nagini by his side, he summons his followers and orders them to invade Hogwarts to ensure the Horcrux he has hidden there is still safe.
Having sensed Voldemort thinking of his Horcrux and Hogwarts through their connection, Harry tells Ron and Hermione that they have to go there and destroy it before Voldemort can get to it, adding that Voldemort seems to be getting more fragile and afraid with each Horcrux destroyed. They Apparate to Hogsmeade, but immediately trigger Caterwauling alarms set up by Death Eaters, who are waiting for Harry. The trio are almost captured, but Aberforth Dumbledore gets them safely into his home and berates them for coming to the village. Harry discovers that it was Aberforth who has been watching them through the mirror shard and who has sent Dobby to rescue them after seeing the two-way mirror hung up on the wall. Aberforth provides them with food and advises them to give up on their mission, go into hiding and save themselves. Harry said that he trusts Albus Dumbledore's judgement that the task has to be seen through no matter what, but Aberforth insists that Albus had left them a suicide mission and it was hopeless. After Harry insists on finishing what he has started, Aberforth summons Neville Longbottom through a secret passage behind Ariana's portrait to bring them into Hogwarts. Bruised and beaten by the Death Eaters of the staff, Neville and most of the students have been hiding in the Room of Requirement all year. They welcome Harry in with tremendous applause and jump at the idea of helping Harry finish Voldemort, but Harry still doesn't know what the remaining Horcruxes look like or where they are. After saying that one of them may be connected to Ravenclaw, Luna Lovegood suggests that Rowena Ravenclaw's Diadem might be the one, despite no one alive today has seen it. Ginny comes foward and after gazing at Harry for a moment, she tells everyone that Snape is now aware of Harry's break in and wanted everyone in the Great Hall.
In the Hall, Snape orders anyone who may hold information regarding Harry's location to tell him immediately or face punishment. Harry then reveals himself after hiding within the crowd as a student and rebukes Snape for standing where Dumbledore once stood as Headmaster, ordering him to tell the students the truth of how he betrayed and killed Dumbledore as Order of the Phoenix members enter the Great Hall. Snape draws his wand in anger, but Minerva McGonagall steps in to defend Harry. Snape and McGonagall face each other off for a moment, dueling, before McGonagall defeats the two Carrows and forces Snape to Apparate out of the school. Voldemort then amplifies his voice so everyone inside the castle can hear him and tells them to give Harry up in exchange for their lives. Pansy Parkinson suddenly yells for them to grab him, but Ginny and other members of Dumbledore's Army surround Harry to reassure that they are on his side. McGonagall orders Argus Filch to take Parkinson and the other Slytherin students to the dungeons, to which all the other students applaud. While the others stand and fight, McGonagall brings the knight statues of Hogwarts to life to aid them in battle while Filius Flitwick, Horace Slughorn, and Molly Weasley cast a shield around the castle. Harry rushes to the Ravenclaw common room, but Luna calls him to wait and listen to her. She informs Harry that only Helena Ravenclaw will know where the diadem is and subsequently brings him down to where the ghost resides. Helena is reluctant at first to tell Harry where the diadem is, believing that he will use it to sharpen his own wits as well as declaring that Voldemort has already defiled is with Dark Magic. After Harry is able to convince her that he will only seek it to destroy it, Helena tells Harry that Voldemort has hidden it in the room "where everything is hidden".
Meanwhile, Ron and Hermione venture down into the Chamber of Secrets to acquire a basilisk fang so as to get rid of the cup. After Hermione destroys it at Ron's insistence, they are almost killed by a tsunami that forms as a result of the cup's destruction, which is felt by both Voldemort and Harry. However, the waves dissipate and the two finally share a passionate kiss and laugh. The Death Eaters and Snatchers at this time have arrived and attempt to break down the shield, but are unable to do so, resulting in three Snatchers disintegrating from running directly into it. Voldemort finally decides to cast a powerful spell to cause the shield to collapse and dissolve. However, the amount of power he has used causes the Elder Wand to crack slightly along its length, but doesn't break. Realising the shield has been dissolved, Scabior and the Snatchers all pursue Neville over the Covered Bridge to get into Hogwarts; however, Neville causes the bridge to collapse, effectively killing Scabior and most of the Snatchers but managing to save himself. The Death Eaters, Dementors, Giants and Acromantulas all attack Hogwarts with the students, staff, and the Order of the Phoenix valiantly fighting back. Harry heads to the Room of Requirement, but stops to kiss Ginny. He wants to say that he loves her but she holds his face and whispers that she knew before allowing him to continue with his mission.
In the Room of Requirement, Harry finds the diadem in a wooden case that he is able to sense through his connection to Voldemort, but is then confronted by Draco Malfoy, Gregory Goyle, and Blaise Zabini (there is no mention of Crabbe or his ultimate fate). During the confrontation, Draco asks for his wand back remarking that his mother's wand is "powerful but not the same". Harry senses Draco's reluctance to aid Voldemort since he failed to identify Harry to Bellatrix earlier at Malfoy Manor, but before Draco can speak, Ron and Hermione intervene by casting stunning jinxes at Malfoy, although Goyle casts several Killing Curses at the trio before running off with Ron in immediate pursuit. Goyle casts Fiendfyre on the Room causing Ron to run back to Harry and Hermione, warning them about the impending danger. However, Goyle, due to inexperience, is unable to stop his wand from conjuring even more flames, resorts to tossing his wand away and climbs up a large pile of furniture with Malfoy and Blaise. During the climb, Goyle loses his footing by accidentally grabbing a loose chair and falls into the flames, which engulf and kill him instantly. His death upsets Malfoy greatly, but the loss doesn't stop him from reaching the peak of the furniture pile. The trio desperately try to run from the spreading flames, which take the forms of monstrous creatures, but wind up trapped between the piles of lost items with the Fiendfyre emerging from all sides. Ron is able to spot a small stack of broomsticks, which they use to travel above the flames and back to the door. However, Harry, seeing Malfoy and Blaise desperately trying to avoid falling into the flames and almost slipping to their deaths, decides to fly back to them and save them with Ron begrudgingly accepting to do the same. The trio are able to save their rivals just in time and quickly fly out of the entrance to the Room of Requirement with the diadem, which Harry immediately destroys with a basilisk fang Hermione had in her bag. Ron then kicks the destroyed diadem back into the burning Room of Requirement just as its doors close and the Fiendfyre forms into the visage of Voldemort. Voldemort senses the diadem's destruction, and when Pius Thicknesse interrupts his concentration, Voldemort mercilessly kills him in frustration.
After destroying the diadem, Harry has a vision of Nagini and Voldemort in the Boathouse, with Voldemort telling Lucius to bring him Snape. The trio run through the devastated castle, avoiding the Dark monsters and attacking the Death Eaters as they went. Fenrir Greyback is feasting on Lavender Brown's flesh but Hermione blasts him away from her over a cliff, although they are shocked at what they have just seen. Hundreds of Dementors descend on the castle but Aberforth, Kingsley, Katie Bell, Ginny, Romilda Vane, Padma, Leanne and Seamus step in, and Aberforth casts a massive shield-like Patronus Charm to repel them. The trio go down to the Boathouse, where they hide behind the building and listen to Snape and Voldemort discussing the Elder Wand. Snape tries to convince Voldemort that the Elder Wand is the latter's to command, but Voldemort has a different theory. He believes that since Snape has killed Dumbledore, the Elder Wand serves him, not Voldemort. After he bids farewell to Snape as a valued member of the Death Eaters, Voldemort slits Snape's throat with Sectumsempra and orders Nagini to finish him off so that he can gain control of the Elder Wand. Nagini strikes Snape several times as the trio watch in horror, leaving Snape terribly wounded but not yet dead. Voldemort then departs the Boathouse with Nagini and amplifies his voice again, ordering his forces to temporarily retreat to the Forbidden Forest and calling for all combatants to dispose of their dead with dignity. He then taunts Harry of how his friends had died trying to protect him and then warns Harry that if he will not give up his life, Voldemort will destroy the castle as well as anyone who stands in his way to find him. Harry quietly walks into the Boathouse and bends down beside Snape to check his wounds as Ron and Hermione stand nearby watching. Harry sights a tear falling from Snape's eyes but upon the latter's insistence to "take them" Harry realises they are memories and gets Hermione to hand him a glass phial to contain them. Snape then whispers for Harry to look at him once more and remarks that he has the same eyes as his mother, Lily Evans, before succumbing to his wounds.
With most of Hogwarts now crumbled and ruined, the trio slowly make their way through the deserted area and find everyone in the Great Hall, mourning the deaths of their friends. Padma Patil and Sybill Trelawney tearfully cover up an unknown professor's body while there are others covering up the bodies of those who died in the battle. The trio then go over to the Weasleys, who are all devastated over Fred Weasley's death, with Ron and his mother grieving over Fred's body. Harry then sees that Remus Lupin and Nymphadora Tonks have died in the battle. Unable to stay there, knowing that they had died because of him, Harry leaves the Great Hall and walks to the Headmaster's office. The office is much emptier and gloomier than Harry has remembered, but the Pensieve reveals itself to Harry, apparently knowing what Harry needs to do. Harry then pours Snape's memories into the Pensive and lays his face into it.
In the Pensieve, Harry sees two young girls in a meadow, one red head and one brunette, Harry's mother and aunt. Harry sees that Lily is merrily opening a flower's petals with magic but Petunia calls her a freak and slaps the flower away from her. Then a young Snape comes out from a tree and reveals himself to them, scaring Petunia away. Throughout their childhood, Snape and Lily have been good friends, playing around with nearby flora with their magic. Later on, it can be seen that Snape has developed a crush on her. At Hogwarts, Lily is Sorted into Gryffindor and introduces herself to Harry's father James Potter and his best friend Sirius Black at the Gryffindor table as a disappointed Snape looks on. Snape and Lily have remained friends during their time at school, but Harry sees how James have frequently and relentlessly bullied Snape. Snape's hatred of James has only worsened when Lily had fallen for James in their seventh year. As a young adult Death Eater, Snape has told Voldemort all he has heard of the Prophecy about who can kill him, not knowing Voldemort will target Harry. When Voldemort sets off to kill baby Harry and his parents, Snape turns to Albus Dumbledore, the only person who can protect Lily, whom Snape has never stopped loving. Snape has begged Dumbledore to hide them after telling Voldemort about the Prophecy. Dumbledore agrees on the condition that Snape defect from the Death Eaters, to which Snape complies immediately.
Despite Dumbledore's efforts, Wormtail's betrayal has given away the Potter's location to Voldemort, allowing the Dark Lord to murder Harry's parents, but is unable to kill Harry himself. As Snape visits Godric's Hollow that night, he finds Lily dead and breaks down, mortified, cradling Lily's dead body in his arms as baby Harry Potter watches on from his crib, crying with his newly inflicted scar. Dumbledore convinces Snape to help him protect Harry should Voldemort return so that Lily will not have died in vain, which Snape agrees to only if Dumbledore never tells anyone his true feelings for her. Over the years, Snape has remained at Hogwarts and used Occlumency to hide his loyalty to Dumbledore from Voldemort and everyone else, yet he has personally despised Harry, who has served as a constant reminder that Lily has never loved him. Eventually, Snape has grown to hold Harry in some respect and come to care a great deal for Dumbledore as both a friend and mentor. It is revealed that Snape has saved Dumbledore's life from the curse contained in Marvolo Gaunt's Ring by containing it in his hand temporarily yet it will take effect in about a year. Dumbledore tells Snape that he knows of Draco's orders to kill him, and to both spare Draco and gain Voldemort's complete trust, Snape has to be the one to kill Dumbledore. Dumbledore then tells Snape that when the Killing Curse has rebounded on Harry as an infant, a part of Voldemort's soul has broken away and latched itself into Harry, which has meant Harry too is a Horcrux, and that Voldemort must kill him to be mortal and therefore vulnerable to death. Snape has been supposed to tell Harry this only when all the other Horcruxes are destroyed, but Snape has remained too reluctant. Snape is also shocked and insulted that Dumbledore has kept Harry alive all this time just so that he can die at the proper moment. Dumbledore had underestimated Snape's devotion to Lily, but this has changed when Snape cast his own Patronus, the silver doe (same as Lily's) proving to Dumbledore how much he still loves her and to Harry that it has been Snape who had given him the sword in the Forest of Dean. Dumbledore has briefly thought that Snape has cared for Harry, but has been proven wrong by the Patronus.
Harry, in shock, now knows what he has to do: to give up his life so that Voldemort can finally be killed. He tells Ron and Hermione that he is going to the Forbidden Forest to their dismay. Hermione sobbingly insists that Harry let her go with him, but Harry refuses, reminding them that they have to kill Nagini, the only other Horcrux left. After a tearful goodbye, Harry walks to the Forest. He digs the Golden Snitch out from his pocket, and as he tells the Snitch, "I am ready to die," the inscription on the Snitch "I open at the close" reappears, and the Snitch opens up, finally giving Harry what the inscription means. Inside the Snitch is the Resurrection Stone that he uses to call back his parents, Remus and Sirius. They provide him with emotional support before Harry walks to his demise, knowing from Sirius that dying is "quicker than falling asleep". As he finishes conversing with his parents and is finally ready to go on, he drops the stone into the forest floor to ensure it becomes lost forever. Harry finds Voldemort and the Death Eaters waiting for him in the middle of the forest, having captured Rubeus Hagrid, who yells for him to run. Harry stands still and closes his eyes as Voldemort slowly raises the Elder Wand and fires the Killing Curse at Harry.
At first it seems to be over, but Harry wakes up in a marble white version of King's Cross Station. His glasses have vanished and so are all the injuries he has suffered. There, he finds a child-like and bloodied version of Voldemort bent into a fetal position under a seat for which he has felt pity and revulsion. The spirit of Albus Dumbledore reveals itself nearby and tells Harry he can not help the bloodied creature. Dumbledore ties up all the loose ends, telling Harry everything he has withheld in the past and that Harry is not actually dead; instead, the Killing Curse has only destroyed the bit of Voldemort inside him, which is what the small bloodied creature represents. Harry asks if he has to go back, but Dumbledore says that is up to him; he can either go back and finish Voldemort, or he can continue to the afterlife. harry asks the former head-master if he thought it peculiar that Snape's patronus was the same as his mother's. Dumbledore concludes that he has always said that "Help will always be given at Hogwarts to those who ask for it", but he now thinks it more obvious that "Help will always be given at Hogwarts to those who deserve it."
Harry re-awakens in the Forest, but feigns death to fool Voldemort. Narcissa Malfoy bends down to him and covertly asks if Draco is still alive, to which Harry confirms by nodding. Knowing all that she needs to know, Narcissa lies to the Death Eaters that Harry is dead. Voldemort and the Death Eaters march back to the castle with Hagrid tearfully carrying Harry in his arms. Voldemort triumphantly declares Harry's death to the castle, causing Ginny to start screaming in heartbreak and disbelief, only to be held back by Arthur Weasley as she attempts to run to Harry's apparently dead body. She keeps struggling until Voldemort keeps her and everyone else back with a wave of his wand. He announces to them that the time has come for them to either join him or die. Against his better judgement, Draco emerges from the other Hogwarts members to be with his parents and Voldemort gives him a congratulatory hug. Neville steps forward and after enduring some taunting from Voldemort, he declares that they are not finished. He said they may have lost Harry, Fred, Remus, Tonks, Lavender, and many others but they have died fighting for liberty and justice. He also surmised that they still carry those they love in their hearts which is the reason enough to keep fighting to the end. Proving himself a true Gryffindor, Neville pulls the Sword of Gryffindor out of the Sorting Hat, which he has found in the rubble of the castle. At that moment, Harry jumps out of Hagrid's arms and reveals himself to everyone around him that he is still alive, to the great relief of his friends and allies. Voldemort, totally thunderstruck, is furious that he has failed again to kill Harry and fires more curses at Harry, who runs to join the others back in the castle. Many Death Eaters quickly realise Voldemort's failure will mark a turn in the tide, so they choose to Disapparate. Bellatrix angrily urges a reluctant Lucius to join the battle, but he flees with Narcissa and Draco.
The battle recommences with Voldemort sending Neville flying back into the Great Hall before he can give Harry the sword. Voldemort then chases Harry all over the castle, trying to kill him, while Ron and Hermione both try to destroy Nagini. In the Great Hall, the battle rages on, leaving many of the Death Eaters defeated. Upon seeing Bellatrix almost killing Ginny, Molly furiously steps in and takes on the maniacal and sadistic witch. The two have a ferocious duel on a table in the Great Hall, with Bellatrix continuously defending herself from Molly's spells, awestruck at the latter's determination to destroy her. Finally, Molly casts a curse that strikes Bellatrix squarely on her chest, before tearing her body into shreds with another spell. Inside Hogwarts' rooftops, Harry tells Voldemort that the Elder Wand will never work for him because it has never been Snape's; he then grabs Voldemort around the neck and throws themselves over the edge of the castle before Voldemort Apparates them. Voldemort flies uncontrollably around Hogwarts, crashing into many things, as he and Harry wrestle in the air before crash-landing on the Entrance Courtyard and dropping their wands. The two enemies desperately crawl to their respective wands and retrieves them at the same time. Harry tells Voldemort before the duel that Snape has not been on Voldemort's side, that Snape loved Lily all his life and that he was on Dumbledore's side all along. Voldemort responds by saying it matters not whether Snape has been his or Dumbledore's man and claims to be the master of the Elder Wand. Harry responds back by telling Voldemort that it is Draco who has been the master of the Elder Wand, not Snape, since he has disarmed Dumbledore, but then Harry has overpowered Draco, so that makes Harry the master of the Elder Wand. Harry demands Voldemort to feel remorse as it is the only way to get redemption to Voldemort's fury just as the sun rises. As everyone watches at a safe distance from the duel, Voldemort fires a Killing Curse, to which Harry counters by firing a Disarming Charm. The two spells collide, but neither can overpower the other since the Elder Wand will not harm Harry and Voldemort still can not be killed. Outside the castle grounds, the Malfoys, with Draco safely returned to them, flees the castle in order to preserve their own safety.
Meanwhile, Nagini corners Ron and Hermione after several failed attempts to destroy the final Horcrux, including Ron casting the Killing Curse at her. Nagini, ready to kill them, slithers towards the couple and strikes, but then Neville, having reawakened in the Great Hall amidst the chaos, steps in with the Sword of Gryffindor in his hand and strikes the snake with the sword, causing Nagini to vanish into black smoke. With the last Horcrux gone, Voldemort is now finally at his most vulnerable. He casts one final Killing Curse at Harry, who counters with his Disarming Charm. The two spells collide, but then the Killing Curse rebounds on Voldemort, who also gets struck by Harry's Disarming Charm, which is why the Elder Wand flies off from Voldemort's hand. Harry takes back the Elder Wand and watches as Voldemort slowly falls the floor, disintegrating into nothingness; the war is finally over. While everyone else recovers from the battle, Harry explains to Ron and Hermione why the Elder Wand has not worked for Voldemort. Voldemort has killed Snape but Snape has never beaten Dumbledore; Dumbledore's death has been planned between them so Dumbledore will not die in defeat. Draco has Disarmed Dumbledore that night against the latter's will, so the Elder Wand has turned to him until Harry has taken Draco's wand from him. Now Harry is the master of the Elder Wand, but he knows that even though it is powerful, it has caused more trouble than it has been worth. So he snaps it in half and throws the pieces over the edge of the bridge, despite Ron and Hermione's obvious lust for the Wand's ownership. The three friends hold hands and gaze dreamily into the distance, wondering what will come next now that it is all over.
Nineteen years later, Harry and Ginny are married with three children, Albus Potter, James Potter II and Lily Potter. They arrive at Platform 9¾ to see Albus and James off to Hogwarts. They meet up with Ron and Hermione, also married with two children, Hugo Weasley and Rose Weasley. Draco is also present, married and with a son, who resembles him in many ways, named Scorpius Malfoy. Albus asks his father what will happen if he is Sorted into Slytherin. Harry tells him that if that happenes, Slytherin will have gained a wonderful young wizard, although the Sorting Hat also takes one's wishes into account. Addressing him by his full name, Albus Severus Potter, Harry also reveals to him that Albus Severus is named after the two men who have been headmasters during Harry's years at Hogwarts, and that one of them (Severus Snape) was a Slytherin and the bravest man Harry has ever known. Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny happily watch as their children depart for school on the Hogwarts Express as other parents and their children wave goodbye to each other. Their adventures at Hogwarts may be over but they are now part of something new and even more amazing: guiding their children through their own adventures.
In the book Bill Weasley tells Harry why Goblins don't trust wizards. This does not happen in the movie, although it is apparent when Griphook asks the trio how they came by the Sword of Gryffindor, to which Harry replies it came to them at their moment of need and that they didn't steal it.
Lupin doesn't come to Shell Cottage, which can be confusing because Harry was never told about his son. presumely Remus told him off screen during the battle.
Harry doesn't ask Ollivander about his original broken wand.
Hermione does not talk about Bellatrix torturing her (indeed, despite being a major part of the finale of Part 1, this is never referenced again in Part 2).
The whole incident with Travers and the bloody beggar isn't displayed due to timing.
Hermione didn't use the Cushioning Charm when the trio, Griphook and Bogrod fell; instead she used Aresto Momentum. Also in the book, the cart flipped over but in the movie the seats let them fall.
The items in the Lestrange's vault are only under the effect of Gemino and not Flagrante. Ironically, shortly afterward they are putting essence of Dittany on their hands. It is mentioned in the video game adaption that the Flagrante curse has been placed on the treasure.
Hermione comes up with the idea of releasing the dragon and does so, not Harry.
Bogrod is killed by the dragon while still under Ron's Imperius curse, which he promptly forgot to remove.
In the book, Griphook snatches the sword from the Trio. In the movie, Griphook grabs the cup and demands Harry give him the sword in exchange.
Instead of Hermione using Levicorpus on Harry so he could reach the Horcrux, Harry fights his way through the Gemino-cursed treasure and reaches for the Horcrux himself.
Harry, through his connection to Voldemort, sees the Hogwarts castle and Helena Ravenclaw, making Harry realise that Ravenclaw is connected to one of Voldemort's Horcruxes.
When Harry, Ron and Hermione enter Hogsmeade, they don't go under the Invisibility Cloak and the Death Eaters don't send Dementors; instead the trio run across a locked gate and Aberforth brings them inside the Hog's Head.
Harry tells Aberforth about the mission that Dumbledore had assigned to him, whereas in the books Harry kept the secret of hunting Horcruxes to himself, Ron and Hermione as per Dumbledore's explicit instructions.
Aberforth doesn't tell Harry about his backstory with Albus and Ariana, and Dumbledore's backstory is never even discussed in the film (therefore leaving some of the hints left during the wedding sequence in Part I unresolved). However, Aberforth does mention that Ariana was one thing that Albus "sacrificed" in his quest for power, indicating that this subplot was present in some form in the original script. In the film, it is implied that this statement by Aberforth was borne of his bitterness and resentment due to constantly living in his brother's shadow, and thus, possibly should not be interpreted as an entirely reliable or accurate version of events based on Aberforth's biased point of view. [citation needed]
Snape and the Carrows summon all the students to the Great Hall in the movie. In the book, when Alecto Carrow sees Harry in the Ravenclaw common room, she summons her brother and Snape through the Dark Mark.
When arriving at Hogwarts, Harry reveals himself to Snape in the Great Hall and is furious at him for standing in Dumbledore's place, even demanding that Snape tell everyone how he killed Dumbledore.
Whenever Pansy Parkinson urges everyone to capture Harry, the Order of the Phoenix and many students surround Harry. In the book, everyone (except the Slytherins) point their wands at Pansy.
Professor McGonagall duels Snape in the Great Hall in front of the entire school before he turns to black "smoke", smashing through the window in the Great Hall. But in the book, McGonagall, Sprout and Flitwick duel Snape, 3 versus 1. The duel is less of a resourceful encounter and more of a, cast at one another battle.
Instead of evicting the Slytherin students following Pansy's outburst, Minerva McGonagall orders Argus Filch to take all of the Slytherin house students to the dungeons.
Instead of Protego Horribilis, Professors Flitwick and Slughorn and Molly use Protego Maxima and some other incantations after that.
The protective shield the Professors place around the school disintegrates anything that attempt to run through it. During the beginning of the Battle of Hogwarts, it instantly kills three Snatchers.
Neville teases the Snatchers when they unable get past the shield.
During the beginning of the Battle, Harry and Ginny kiss.
When Voldemort destroys the shield around Hogwarts, the Elder Wand cracks a bit by the amount of power used, which may be attributed to the wand's allegiance to Harry, not Voldemort.
Pius Thicknesse is killed by Voldemort after he interrupts his concentration with an unwanted interjection, after the former senses his Diadem Horcrux's destruction. (Due to the framing of the shot it's not immediately apparent who is killed.)
No explanation is given as to how Luna got back to Hogwarts; she's just suddenly present when Harry arrives.
Harry and Luna go to Ravenclaw Tower, but not inside the common room, just outside of it.
The Grey Lady tells Harry where to find the Ravenclaw Diadem. It is implied that she knew of Riddle's intentions to turn it into a horcrux as she screams "he defiled it with Dark Magic!", and that she herself hid it in the Room of Requirement, rather than Riddle placing it in the Room after he acquired it. Helena's backstory of stealing the diadem from her mother, her history with the Bloody Baron, Rowena sending the Baron after her, and the Baron eventually killing Helena and then committing suicide, is never explained.
In the film, after opening the Chamber of Secrets, Ron claims that Harry speaks Parseltongue in his sleep, and he remembered that to open the door. In the novel, Ron remembered how to speak Parseltongue from when Harry opened the locket, and he destroyed it.
In the Chamber of Secrets the piece of Voldemort's soul creates a tsunami, after the tsunami is gone Ron and Hermione turn to each other and kiss passionately. In the book, they kiss after Ron says that they should warn the house-elves about the Death Eaters (however this subplot was abandoned in the movies).
4. Entering the Room of Requirement
Vincent Crabbe doesn't appear in the film and Gregory Goyle dies in his place. (This is due to the actor who played Crabbe being unavailable for filming.)
Draco Malfoy describes using his mother's wand as powerful, but not quite the same as his old one.
The diadem is in a wooden case on a table in the Room of Requirement, not on a bust of an old warlock.
The diadem is taken out of the Room of Requirement by Harry and Harry destroys the diadem with a Basilisk fang. Ron then kicks it into the Fiendfyre. The part of Voldemort's soul forms three great visages of Voldemort in the flames. Hermione pulls Ron back as the doors swing shut just before the faces can reach the door.
Harry sees Voldemort and then Ron urges him to look within his mind and see where he is.
The trio enter the room separately. Harry enters it as Hermione and Ron study the Marauder's map. Harry's name vanishes and Ron says how he may have gone to the Room of Requirement, reminding Hermione she had said so a year ago. Hermione stuns Blaise as they are about to kidnap Harry.
Aside from the major characters, the rest of the characters included during the Battle of Hogwarts such as Percy Weasley and Nymphadora Tonks who played a supporting role in the book are reduced to background characters with no dialogue. Percy's change of allegiance back to his family is not referenced at all.
Aberforth's Patronus.
Aberforth and Kingsley led a group of combatants across the Entrance Courtyard and they fend off hundreds of Dementors during the Battle of Hogwarts with a tidal wave patronus.
Shattered Quidditch field at the Battle of Hogwarts.
Neville shows feelings for Luna two times in the film. The first time he is searching for her in the castle and the second time is after the battle when they sit awkwardly with each other. Matthew Lewis has said that their relationship is merely a "summer fling" before they end up with their respective spouses, Hannah Abbott and Rolf Scamander[212].
Nagini is not in a protective sphere. Instead, her body is protected by strong protective charms. When Ron launches a curse at Nagini, the curse passed through her body and then struck in the staircase. Also when Harry reveals himself that he is alive, he launches a Confringo at Nagini which rebounds and strikes several Death Eaters that are standing behind Voldemort, causing them to collapse from the blast.
Snape's death does not take place in the Shrieking Shack, but in the redesigned Boathouse that can see the castle burning. Art director Andrew Ackland-Snow explained why: "We wanted to change a bit where Snape dies. In the book, he dies in the Shrieking Shack, and we wanted to get him out from, not a conventional interior, but from that kind of box, to do it in a more dramatic atmosphere. We asked J.K. if she agreed for that to happen in there [...] and she loved it. Besides, it's a very romantic place to die. Snape dies in a extremely good way, I gotta say".[213]
Voldemort slashes Snape's throat open with the Elder Wand possibly using Sectumsempra, before ordering Nagini to "finish him". Nagini's attack is not seen, but Snape's screams are heard and the windows of the Boathouse are splattered with his blood as Harry, Ron and Hermione watch on in horror.
In the book, Snape's memories "gushed" from his mouth, eyes and ears. In the film, his memories are more subtly contained in his tears. The phial that Hermione hands Harry to contain them is not conjured out of thin air like it is in the book, and Snape's last words to Harry are not simply "Look...at...me." (book), but "Look at me. You have your mother's eyes."
Scabior and the other Snatchers duel Neville on the Covered Bridge, and they are killed when Neville cast a curse on the bridge supports which causes half of the bridge to collapse.
The Covered Bridge collapsing.
There are a number of differences in Snape's flashback: [214]
Snape and Lily are shown to be good friends as children, but the backstory about his and Lily's falling out was not explored in the film (as such, Snape's Worst Memory from Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (film) was not revisited). It was simply shown than when the two friends were sorted into their respective houses, a first year James moves next to Lily, eyeing Snape. Also Lily met James and Sirius in the book on the Hogwarts Express with a negative impression, whereas in the movie, Lily and James friendly greeted each other at the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall.
Lily telling Harry to be strong.
An added scene shows Lily telling baby Harry (presumably just before Voldemort attacks their house in 1981) to be brave and that he is loved.
The added scene continues, showing Snape going to the Potters' house in Godric's Hollow after Voldemort ravaged the house. He walks through the halls, past James's dead body and collapses, crying, when he finds Lily's body in Harry's nursery. He then cradles her in his arms and cries as baby Harry also cries in his crib.
In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1, Remus Lupin does not identify Snape as George's attacker during the Battle over Little Whinging. Thus, the flashback scene which shows Snape's attack on George being accidental was omitted.
While Snape's patronus is shown being a doe, it is not explained how he knew where Harry and Hermione were in the Forest of Dean. Since Harry was looking at the Two-way mirror before Snape's Patronus appeared, and the inside of the Hog's Head was seen, the most likely explanation is that Aberforth was working with Snape, and that Albus may have told him of Snape's true allegiance prior to his death.[215] It is noted in the book that Phineas Nigellus heard Hermoine give away their position as he was listening from Hermoine's enchanted bag.
After using the Resurrection Stone to bring back James, Lily, Sirius, and Remus, Harry mentions that he is sorry that Remus died right after having his son, Teddy. It is not mentioned on screen how he heard the news of his birth. It is presumed that Remus told him before the Battle of Hogwarts. (Indeed, no on-screen reference to the pregnancy occurs in either Part 1 or Part 2, so the reference to Teddy comes out of the blue for anyone not familiar with the novel.)
Harry tells Ron and Hermione that he is a Horcrux, and that he must die. Hermione then hugs him and wants to go with him. When Hermione is hugging him, Harry sseesaw Ron and a tear slowly slides down his cheek.
Instead of Harry being naked when arriving at King's Cross he is instead fully clothed; he also sees Voldemort in the image of a red, slimy squirming fetus, not unlike the fragile, baby-like form that he'd taken in the film version of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire prior to the Dark Magic ritual in the graveyard with Harry.
In the film, it was suggested that Harry cannot be killed simply because the Killing Curse only destroyed the part of Voldemort's soul inside Harry, and it is not explained how Voldemort anchored Harry to life when he used Harry's blood in his resurrection, thus keeping Lily's protection alive. Dumbledore also doesn't explain the reason why Harry's wand repelled Voldemort's during the Battle over Little Whinging. As mentioned above, neither he nor Aberforth explain the former's backstory, and thus, Dumbledore does not beg Harry's forgiveness for his actions in his youth.
The film retains Fenrir Greyback's attack on Lavender Brown, however the outcome is considerably different in that Hermione blasts Greyback out a window, presumably to his death (in the novel he is only stunned and others kill him). The film also strongly implies that Lavender dies, whereas she survives the attack in the book.
6. The End of the Battle and the Death of the Dark Lord
In the book, Voldemort uses the Cruciatus Curse on Harry's "dead" body and throws him into the sky. But in the movie, he never does that.
Narcissa voluntarily goes to check if Harry is alive in the film, whereas in the book, Voldemort orders her to go check him.
In the book, Voldemort says he would be happy if Neville joined them, but in the film, Voldemort and the Death Eaters taunt him when he steps forward.
When Voldemort calls for Draco step forward, he hugs him awkwardly in congratulations.
Instead of Neville saying, "I'll join you when Hell freezes over!" in the movie he makes a speech to the Death Eaters, Voldemort and everybody at Hogwarts that Harry may be dead, but inside he's still with them and that he and everyone else who died didn't die in vain and that it's not over.
Voldemort does not torture Neville by placing the Sorting Hat on his head and setting it aflame.
After having pulled the Gryffindor Sword from the Sorting Hat, Neville is stunned by Voldemort. He then wakes up in the Great Hall where the Battle started again and takes the sword to kill Nagini.
Bellatrix does not duel with the combined forces of Luna, Hermione, and Ginny before Molly intervenes and says "NOT MY DAUGHTER YOU BITCH."
Bellatrix and Molly Weasley duel on the top of a table after Bellatrix attacks Ginny. Molly kills her using the killing curse before tearing her body apart with what is likely the Reductor Curse. The power of Molly's killing curse causes Bellatrix's body to become sunken and sallow immediately before it is obliterated by the second spell. During this duel Bellatrix does not laugh at and taunt Molly over the death of her son and seems to take her seriously unlike in the book when she greatly underestimates Molly.
Trelawney's scene of throwing orbs at death eaters is omitted.
The Malfoy Family's last appearance is directly after Harry reveals himself to be alive. Narcissa, Draco and Lucius abandon Voldemort and the Death Eaters by walking away down the Viaduct. We don't see Draco again until the epilogue.
Harry and Voldemort duel throughout Hogwarts after Harry reveals himself. He fires Confringo at Nagini then makes a run for it. Voldemort fires explosions at Harry, then Disapparates with Nagini. Harry is hiding, then when Voldemort walks up the Grand Staircase, Harry fires a spell. Voldemort fires spells at Harry, Disapparates and tries to kill Harry with a Killing Curse but the spells lock. Nagini is about to pounce on Harry, but he throws the tendrils above the ceiling causing it to collapse. Voldemort fires a wave of dark energy, but Harry jumps off the staircase and runs through the Stone Bridge Tower with Voldemort in pursuit. He fires a spell, which Harry deflects onto the catwalk. Voldemort then grabs Harry using his cloak to restrain him. Then he proceeds to strangle and physically beat Harry.
While duelling Voldemort in the castle, Harry tries to stab Nagini with a basilisk's fang, which is disintegrated by Voldemort with a curse.
Ron too tries to kill the snake with a fang and Hermione throws stones at it.
Harry and Voldemort falling during Battle of Hogwarts.
Harry grabs Voldemort and throws them both off of the roof of the castle. Voldemort Apparates them in mid-fall to the Entrance Courtyard.
Voldermort finally dies after being defeated by Harry Potter.
Nagini doesn't die before the battle resumes, but instead dies during Harry and Voldemort's duel. While trying to strike at Ron and Hermione, she is decapitated by Neville with the Sword of Gryffindor.
When Neville kills Nagini, she disintegrates into black smoke.
Harry and Voldemort's final duel takes place at the Entrance Courtyard instead of the Great Hall.
After being struck with the Killing Curse, Voldemort hits the floor his body, feeble and shrunken, disintegrates into nothingness. In the book he doesn't disintegrate.
After the conclusion of the battle. Harry, Ron and Hermione stand on the remains of the Viaduct.
Rather than using the Elder Wand to repair his original wand or consider returning it to Dumbledore's tomb, Harry snaps it in two and throws it over the side of the Viaduct.
Harry does not go to the Headmaster's Office after the battle.
The scene of Kingsley Shacklebolt being named as "Acting Minster for Magic" is omitted, which also omits the details of who became the next Minister for Magic.
The post-battle gathering at Hogwarts (which included the Malfoy family) is omitted.
A scene on the outskirts of Tinworth. On the beach the trio help Hermione up. They then look up, witnessing the lightning conjoured by Voldemort and run to Shell Cottage.[citation needed]
A scene where Snape enters Dumbledore's office and shatters the silver objects on his table. He then collapses, crying.[citation needed]
A longer scene with Aberforth[216], where he does explain what happened in the past[217].
A scene of Ron and Hermione at Shell Cottage[218].
Ginny enters the Great Hall and Bellatrix stuns McGonagall. She then duels Percy, George and Arthur before Ginny turns up. She then hurls the curse at Ginny who deflects it.[citation needed]
A scene, presumably when Voldemort grabs Harry using his cloak, where Voldemort holds Harry's head up close to his and asks, "Why do you live?" to which Harry replies, "Because I have something worth living for!" Voldemort then raises the Elder Wand which glows green, ready to kill Harry. He is then thrown off balance, reministent to the fact that Harry is the owner of the wand and is unable to destroy its owner.
Edited Scenes
Hermione talks to Griphook after Harry and Ron have left about being tortured by Bellatrix.[citation needed]
In the scene when Voldemort tells everyone that Harry didn't care about them, Ron shouts "LIAR" and Hermione weeps into his shoulder. That was not seen in the final version.[citation needed]
An extended scene when Harry hurls himself and Voldemort off the tower where Ginny sees them. She then races into the Great Hall.[citation needed]
Bellatrix taunts Molly saying, "Come on, granny! Give us your best!" Molly then says to her family, "Stand back, boys" and duels.[citation needed]
Hermione and Ron, after Harry's reappearance, drag him into the Great Hall as Lord Voldemort transforms into a ball of smoke and chases Harry, smokey tendrils shattering display cases, statues and more. Hermione then duels a dozen Death Eaters while Ron goes after the snake. She then catches up with him.[citation needed]
