| | Exclusive: Moaning Myrtle not in Half-Blood Prince
A few days ago we got in touch with Hamilton Hodell, the agency that represents Shirley Henderson, who plays Moaning Myrtle in the Harry Potter films. It has been confirmed to us that the character hasn't made it into Half-Blood Prince. Quote:
I'm sorry to report that Moaning Myrtle has not made it into the latest film.
Half-Blood Prince opens November 21st. |

Moaning Myrtle consoles Draco--and that's who's with him when Harry encounters Draco and the whole sectumsempra thing happens.

Ohhh yeah, I knew that, lol. I forgot all about that scene and that's bad since it was my favorite, lol. Ohh it's a shame she's not in the movie.

Again disappointing - this movie is going to have something from the book isn't it? besides the name?
Every thing we've heard so far is how different from the book the HBP movie will be. No Scrimgeour, Fleur, Bill, v. little Tonks & now Myrtle?

First to post She was in the Sectumsempra scene with Draco & Harry. I think this bit will be in the film without her, though. Well, I hope O.o Quote:

The sorting will be open later today 5pm EST. Quote:

Yes lots from the book, it's just we're hearing a lot of negative stuff because Warner Brothers aren't releasing any information because of embargoes and stuff being promised to certain outlets/publications etc... So we're only able to report on what isn't in the film, which paints a worse picture than what's actually the case.

Hmm. I suppose it's not necessary to have her in there. Although, if you follow that reasoning, they could have left her out of GoF. They're so random sometimes.

they can do the sectumsempra scene w/out her if they had to. Rather they cut her than someone or something more important.

I can understand why they left her out.
the whole sectumsempra thing (on film) can look kinda bloody and messy.
I'm not sure if they wanted to add that... Adding it may upgrade the movie from a rated PG movie to a PG13. And we have to remember that there are alot of little kids who admire harry potter. I personally think that They should stay true to the book.

Hmmm...this is a little distressing. I hope they still have the crying scene with Draco and it makes sense.

Excellent point about the rating and the fact that kids still see the movie.

Hate to see so many characters cut that were in the book, but what can you do? We know the filmmakers always have a tendency to do this. It's sad, but just the way it is. This is why the books are so much better than the films! (Not to say that the films are not worth seeing, they are. But you know what I mean!)

Aww man I really wanted to see Myrtle again =/
__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

I will only go see the movie four times ( x] )
But this is indeed sad! They are going to chop the story line so badly D:
