Returning Cast

New Cast Members

Flints

  • When the Gryffindors Common Room is first seen, a song from 2006 is heard on the Wizard Radio, even though the book is set in 1995. 'They're wizards, it's possible that they may be able to get songs from the future.'
  • Oyster card panels are clearly visible in the London underground scene which is an anachronism.

Omissions

  • Harry's explanation to the Dursleys of the Dementor attack omitted from the film.
  • All scenes regarding St. Mungo's are omitted.
  • Mundungus Fletcher and Dobby are not featured in the film.
  • Umbridge's uniform black bow is omitted from the film. Also, she only wears witches' robes during the Wizengamot scene.
  • In the film, Kreacher never tricks Harry into searching the Ministry for Sirius.
  • Hermione, Ron, and Draco becoming prefects is omitted from the film.
  • In the novel, Hermione gets critically injured by Antonin Dolohov's Curse. In the film, this is omitted.
  • Percy's standing with the Ministry of Magic is sudden and unexplained, and there is no mention of him disowning his family when he chose to support the Ministry which makes it difficult for those who did not read the book.
  • Tonks' status as a Metamorphmagus is never even discussed in the film. She starts changing her nose at the dinner table without any explanation of her powers.
  • Nymphadora Tonks is wounded and knocked unconscious by Bellatrix Lestrange in the book. This is omitted in the film.
  • Fred and George Weasley's Portable Swamp is omitted from the film.
  • Harry's date with Cho in Hogsmeade is omitted.
  • The Quidditch season is removed entirely from the film, as well as Ron joining the team as Keeper, Umbridge removing Harry, Fred, and George from the team, and Ginny joining the team to replace Harry.

Differences Between Film and Novel

  • When Harry, Ron and Hermione first see a Thestral, Neville is with them. Neville shows no sign of being able to see the Thestral even though he CAN see Thestrals in the books.
  • In the film, the Advance Guard arrives to remove Harry from Little Whinging right after the Dementor attack. In the book, Harry is grounded for days until the Advance Guard comes.
  • The film contains a fabricated scene in which Harry finds Luna in the Forbidden Forest feeding Thestrals.
  • In the film, Neville Longbottom discovers the Room of Requirement accidentally when hiding from Crabbe and Goyle. In the novel, Dobby tells Harry where it is.
  • In the film, Hermione has heard of the Room of Requirement, whereas in the book she has not.
  • In the film, Filch is aware of the secret meetings in the Room of Requirement. In the novel, he has no clue.
  • In the novel, Dumbledore's Army is discovered because Marietta Edgecombe, a member and a friend of Cho Chang, tattled to Umbridge. In the film, Cho Chang is duped into revealing the truth via Veritaserum, and Umbridge and the Inquisitorial Squad break into the Room of Requirement using "Bombarda Maxima." Also, in the film, this is used as a reason for her and Harry's break-up.
  • Hogsmeade Station is at the edge of Hogsmeade in the novels, yet it is in/close to the Forbidden Forest in the film, with no village in sight.
  • Neville Longbottom tells Harry of his parents' past in the Room of Requirement. In the novel, it is when they are in St. Mungo's, as well as that Dumbledore tells Harry in the previous book.
  • In the film, students almost never wear robes, whereas they are required school attire in the novels.
  • When the Minister arrives to arrest Dumbledore in the film, Fawkes attacks and knocks the Ministry officials down with some sort of fire. In the novel, Dumbledore knocks out the Minister, Umbridge, Dawlish, Marietta Edgecombe, and Kingsley Shacklebolt.
  • In the book, after Dumbledore escapes, Phineas Nigellus Black states, "You may not like him Minister, but you have to admit Dumbledore's got style." In the movie, Kingsley Shacklebolt says this line.
  • In the film, Bellatrix Lestrange leaves the Ministry of Magic using the Floo Network. In the book Lord Voldemort takes her away.
  • Kreacher's role is diminished to only two scenes and it is never explained that he gave information to Narcissa Malfoy.
  • In the film, Bellatrix Lestrange kills Sirius Black with the Killing Curse, which then causes Sirius' body to fade away into the veil. In the book, the curse is not named and is not even implied to have been the Killing Curse.
  • In the film, Sirius mistakenly calls Harry by the name of James. This does not happen in the book; it is only debated that Sirius views Harry as a pal in the same way he viewed James Potter I.
  • In the film, Sirius punches Lucius Malfoy in the face.
  • In the book, the Fountain of Magical Brethren protects Harry and Dumbledore, and Fawkes swallows a killing curse. In the movie, only Dumbledore protects Harry.
  • As in the previous 2 movies, Ginny's role is diminished, and nothing of her relationship with Michael Corner is ever talked about though they are seen together at the meeting in the Hog's Head where Harry, Ron and Hermione form Dumbledore's Army.
  • In the film, Harry never learns that it is Sybill Trelawney who made the prophecy, in fact the scene where Dumbledore shows Harry his memory of being told the prophecy in the Pensieve is omitted. Whereas in the film, Harry hears the prophecy come out of its orb as soon as he touches it in the Hall of Prophecy.
  • In the novel, Ron, Hermione, Luna, Neville and Ginny are not actually captured by Death Eaters like they are in the movie.
  • In the film, Harry uses the Protego spell instead of looking into Snape's Pensieve.
  • In the book, several days/weeks elapse between the Weasley twins leaving and Harry seeing the vision of Sirius being tortured at the Ministry of Magic. In the film, these occur one after the other, on the same day, along with Harry, Ron & Hermione getting caught by Umbridge trying to use her Floo Network connection.
  • In the book Remus Lupin is at the Dursleys to help escort Harry, but in the movie he is not and he is not seen until the scene at Grimmauld Place.
  • In the book Harry meets Luna Lovegood on the Hogwarts train, but in the movie they meet her on a carriage.
  • Nymphadora Tonks changes her violet hair into bubblegum pink in the start of the book, but in the movie she keeps her hair violet throughout, only changing it red once.
  • In the film, Harry never consults Sirius and Lupin about their treatment of Snape while they were all students at Hogwarts.
  • In the book, the Death Eaters do not Apparate inside the Ministry of Magic as they do in the movie. Apparation in the movie seems to turn the Death Eaters into a fast moving smoke rather then real teleportation, while Tonks turns into a stream of light instead. Fred and George seem to Apparate the same way as in the book.
  • In the novel Sirius tells Harry his family's backstory and him being disowned shortly after Harry arrived at Grimmauld Place. In the film he tells him this during Christmas.
  • In the book after the kiss between Cho and Harry Hermione gives a much longer list of reasons why Cho was crying including her being worried about getting kicked off the Ravenclaw quidditch team. In the movie the list is shorter but Hermione says after Cho and Harry kiss that Cho is worried about failing her O.W.L.s but Cho in the books is stated as a year ahead of Harry so she should have taken her O.W.L.s already
  • In the book, Mad-Eye Moody shows Harry a picture of the original Order of the Phoenix, but in the film Sirius shows him the picture.
  • In the book Umbridge eventually reveals that she was the one who sent the Dementors to Harry discreetly as a way to discredit him. In the film the one responsible was never identified though it was hinted to be Voldemort.
  • In the sixth book, Harry is stated as having difficulty with non-verbal spells, but in the film, uses several unnamed spells non-verbally while duelling a Death Eater.

Box office performance

The film took in over $292 million in box office gross in the USA-Canada market and $938 million worldwide. Among the Harry Potter films released so far, it has done second best, slightly ahead of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire in the North American market (where it ranks 28th all-time), but far ahead of Goblet worldwide to take 6th place all-time. The five Potter films together have now grossed more than any other series of films in history.[1]

Behind the scenes

  • The company which created the film trailer entitled Divine Crusade is X-Ray Dog.
