Reports from the set of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix have been few and far between, but this morning a report
appeared online stating that Emma Thompson will reprise her role as Professor Trelawney and that the Knight Bus will also be making an appearance in the movie.
According to HPFZ from an extra in the film:
I have definite news that the scene where Trelawney is sacked by Umbridge will appear. It takes place in the courtyard (the one used at the end of GOF) and features Filch, Trelawney, Dumbledore, McGonagall, Umbridge and all of the main student cast (however, none, apart from Harry, play a big role in the scene).
During the scene, a group of extras (including me) have to stand on the steps outside the courtyard's main doors while [the teachers] and Harry have to pass through us. Trelawney is standing traumatised over a large group of her suitcases. (However, she isn't wailing and screaming like a mad person as described in the book. She's just standing upset and overwhelmed.)
I can also confirm that there's a Knight Bus stored on one of the sets, [and that it is slightly different from the one in Prisoner of Azkaban.
As of now we can't confirm the authenticity of this report, but if true the movie sounds like it will be fun to watch.

Usually, I like for the movie version to resemble the book version as closely as possible; however, maybe if Trelawney's reaction is toned down in the film, the director will make up for it in other ways.

Of course they have to use the knight buss and the professor,they should try and stay as true to the story as possiable but make it alittle different.it's really starting to sound like the 5th film will be the best. I hope it is.i know that the 5th book is actully my favorite.I'm looking forward to alot from this film.

*Gasps* Slightly different? Hmmm... I am happy to hear Trelawney and the Knight Bus will be in the film because that would also be true to the book. I just like it better when the movies themselves have visual consistency.

Um... I thought that extras weren't allowed to talk about what happens in the movie. Anyway, it sounds like it'd be true. Why give such a detailed report if you're only going to be proved a liar later on?

Oh I'm really begging here!! Please,please,please stay true to the story. Movies are fun to look forward to, but they can be such a let down when it finally comes to seeing them.
I guess that a true fan of the books will never be satisfied by an abridged version of the stories.
"(However, she isn't wailing and screaming like a mad person as described in the book)"
Oh come on Emma, a little bit of the over dramatics couldn't hurt.

This is great news, especially since we haven't heard anything for awhile. Now all we need are...maybe some pictures? Clips possibly? The very least pictures, can't wait until they start popping up!

that's really cool! It would have been great to be an extra in the film. I wonder what the new night bus is like. I don't think it would be much different from the old one.
