In an interview with British newspaper The Express, Julie Walters
(Mrs. Weasley) from the Harry Potter movies confirms that she will not be making an appearance in the upcoming Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
Ms. Walters discusses her feelings about not being in the movie:
To be honest, I was a bit hurt not to be in it. The kids love the Harry Potter films so much and I get lots of mail about it. I can understand why they've had to pare down the film as the book is so long but I am really hoping I'll be in again for the next one.

Oh, I am disappointe to hear this! I love Mrs. Weasley. And truthfully, her part in GOF is important -- first of all, theres the whole segment in the Burrough. Then, one of the most touching moements is when Harry is told to go into a room where his "family" is waiting to greet him before the final task and he goes in perplexd -- to find Mrs. Weasley and one of the older brothers there. I can see how it's not necessary for the movie, but I love that moment!

That really does suck!!!She is sosososo important to the plot of Harry Potter. She is supposed to be like his mother-like-figure. She has got to be in the next film. Wow this bites. Julie is the perfect part for Mrs.Weasly.PRAY,PRAY,PRAY is in the OoTP.

She is such a great actor!! I can't beleive they won't be having her in there. I do have a feeling though that she will be in OotP because her part is a lot bigger than in GoF. I still think the movie will be great though.

No where? Not even in at the 3rd task when she comes to visit Harry? I can't believe it! Or when she comforts Harry like a mother at the end? Gosh, I'm bummed.

I dont understand how they can cut Percy and Mrs Weasley? I definitely would have thought I'd see her in GoF!!! I'm losing more and more faith in this movie by the second.

This is really stupid,i mean if she Mrs Weasley isn't a major character(and really important to Harry as well),well,I just don't know what to say!I have this sort of feeling that Newell might be going for a teen movie...

This is really disappointing. The Weasley's are the best family in HP, and I can say without hesitation that at least I really look forward to seeing them in all the movies. I hope Mrs.Weasley is there in the next movie.

Here is a question, Mrs. Weasley has a big part at the end of GoF when she attends the final task, how are they going to write around that? I could understand her not being there for the Quiddich World Cup, but at the end I don't see how they could leave her out.

Oh my gosh! Can you say scathing letter!? She is so important to Harry in all the books. She is very important in the last scene with Harry. Ugh. I hate this, first the Dursleys (which I could handle better) but MOLLY WEASLEY!

That's so sad. Mrs. Weasley has a big role in the books so she should have a big role in the movies. I really hope she' going to be in the next movie.

Well, that's extremely sad. I positively love Mrs. Weasley, and I will miss her greatly. I do hope she's in OotP...I wonder how much they cut out of the fourth now... cause she went to Hogwarts, too, to see Harry in the tournament...oh well. We can't have everybody, can we?

I feel like I have been slapped :O. I'm so shocked! I can't belive it... She's on of my favorite characters... And in the 4th book she finds out about Sirius and she shows up quite a bit... HP is not quite the same without her, she's like amother to Harry!!! I really hope that the movie is good, I still want to see it, and I still Love HP. (sorry, I almost lost it there)

Emma's true fan and lover says:
That's bad news, Julie Walters portrayed Mrs Weasley really well and nobody will be able to play the part better than her.
I hope she reconsiders, if not I hope she comes back for the 5th movie, she'll have a bigger part to play then.
It would have been really nice to see her with Bill when she comes to see Harry in school before the third task.
