Actor Chris Rankin will reprise his role as Percy Weasley in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, he confirmed to us today.
Portraying one of Ron Weasley's older brothers, Rankin has been in three of the four Potter films to date, and it was previously rumored he would return.
His character's part and subplot in Goblet of Fire was cut, and it's not yet known how much screen time he'll have in the fifth movie, to be released in 2007.

I am so happy that he's going to be back in Phoenix. I hope they keep a lot of his story line in the movie to show how upset the Weasley's are with him. Now I hope they confirm everybody else. Especially Matthew Lewis. He has to be in Phoenix!

What a tool. He looks so odd! He was way cooler in the second one first ones. He was funny in the third. "Move I'm Head boy!" What a tool.

This is very good news indeed. I was a little sad to see that percy was cut from the GOF becuase in the book he played such an intricate role....The Order of the phoenix is my favorite of the books thus far and i cannot wait to see it made into a film , i do hope it's longer then all the others!!

Good news. Percy's part in Order Of The Phoenix has a lot of controversy or the Dark Force. The movie has a really tough challenge if they want to beat the Goblet Of Fire.
Anyway, good luck to the directors, I hope Mike Newell is still there.

I'm happy to see that he will be returning in OotP. It's too bad there are some characters that will have to be cut from the movie.

That's cool that he's coming back, but Robbie isn't coming back, and he had a much more important role . . . I'm kinda mad about that but i'll still be watching the movie when it comes out

Hey, I don't care how much screen time he'll have. It's just great to know that he'll be back 'cause he's needed at least a little bit. It's been a while since I read book 5 but we need him for sure. I just hope that the person playing Neville signs up for sure 'cause we REALLY need him!

Ohhh... I can't wait!!! OotP is going to be awesome. I can't wait to see him, it's going to be good. He'll only be in a few scenes but hopefully they'll be well worth it.
