Actress Emma Thompson has confirmed that she will not reprise her role as Divination professor Sybill Trelawney in the Deathly Hallows films, as they would conflict with her working schedule for next year.

Quote:

“No, no, no,” the Oscar winner insisted when we asked whether she’d be returning as Professor Sybil Trelawney in “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows”. “I’m making my own ‘Nanny McPhee’ next year. They mean much more to me.”

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be released in November 2010 and May 2011.

Speaking of Mrs. Thompson, she was on the US show Ellen today!!! But she didn't talk about her role as Sibyl. She was talking about her kids and her new movie.

Hmmm well I understand where she's coming from because she probably wouldn't ahve had that much screen time in DH anyway and shes like the main character in Nanny McPhee. But still I'd rather they not have Trelawney at all than have some one new

It's Good that She Didn't Really play a Big part In Deathly Hallows...
I Would Of been very Disappointed is she Did!

Yeah, Emma stuff your Inner Eye. She was good as Trelawney, but annoying all the same...

Wow how rude. Maybe if she is gonna be that way we don't need her in these movies.

WHAT!!! I want her to play Sybill! She´s great as her!

she played an awful Trelawney, in some cases being the worst actor in the film. her take on it seemed to be 'how much can i ham this up'?I enjoy her work normaly, so perhaps it's because the character wasn't written so well in the screen play.

Trelawney doesn't do anything of significance, so I can't see them re-casting her.

Well, it's rather insulting and sad that the said the Nanny things "mean much more" to her.

I don't think so. After all, she writes those scripts, so obviously it's going to be of higher importance to her.

was this HER decision, or has WB started up the chopping block already???????

Sounds like it was hers. Though really, she doesn't do anything of consequence in Deathly Hallows, so her part being eliminated wouldn't cause problems. As for the scripts, I think the first is ready.

Wait what does she mean by Nanny McPhee?

I assume she means a sequel.
