Director names the character essential for Harry Potter 6 and 7
By: Lucy | June 26, 2007
At a press conference for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, there was only one topic people could talk about – which character was cut and re cast under the advisement of super-scribe – JK Rowling.
It has been said that JK Rowling, after reading each draft and screenplay, drops little hints about what can and can’t happen in the movie,
“Jo reads each draft, David Heyman said, “she reads each screenplay, and she said, ‘You know, I wouldn’t do that if I were you. Or you can, but if you get to make a seventh film, you’ll be tied in knots”
The character who had been cut was officially named by director David Yates to be Kreacher. He said about their decision,
“We took Kreacher out, and Jo said, ‘Listen guys, you don’t have to put Kreacher back, but I’m just telling you, if you want to kind of keep a thread going for six and seven, you might want Kreacher to come back.’ She basically told us Kreacher plays a role in Seven, in a sense. She hinted. We thought about it for five seconds, and he came back.”
So now the world is left wondering – what is it that Kreacher does to make him so essential for the next two movies? I guess we’ll just have to wait and see, but be sure to check back here for the latest developments with Harry Potter.
