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.

The Knight Bus? For some reason I can't quite remember the Knight Bus playing a role in Order of the Phoenix but it's been a while since I last read the book.
And Trelawney not making a big fuss? I think I'd much prefer her to be wailing and crying than standing quietly upset!

Good. I'm glad that thompson will be back. She did so well in PoA, I'd hate to see her replaced.
How sligh a change are they talking about for the changing the bus? I hope not too much. I really don't like it when films aren't consitant with each other (like it really bothered me when they change the look of the castle from Cos to PoA. Still, I have to admit that the result was much better than the first two films)...

Oh, I hope this one is true, I LOVE the Knight Bus. I think they did an awesome job with it in the last movies, and I really love Stan, hahaha.
And the scene with Sybil getting sacked is so going to make me angry, I hate Umbridge...

Aww why did they have to change the Knight Bus. I liked it just the way it was. I wish Prof. Trelawney would be wailing like a mad woman like in the books.

Why are you all so worried about the movies? All that really matters is Book Seven. I have seen each movie once and that is more than enough for me.

If this is true then this will put this fim one more step higher as my favorite movie of all-time tied along with the other 4 flicks.

I am wondering if the person who saw the different bus' didnt see the real bus that drives, and the chopped up bus, that they use to shoot the "inside the bus" scenes. Because I know they have both of those. ALso, the bus would look different with the beds gone and chairs there in stead. That may be the only real differences.

YAY! I'm so glad to hear that the two 'stars' will be in the fifth movie. I don't think there could be an OOTP without them.

It just wouldn't be a good film adaptation if that scene was left out. I'll be really happy to see her back in this movie.

I generally do not like changes from books to movies but this might be an exception.
