Toby Jones, the voice of Dobby from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, confirmed
in a recent interview that his character will not be making an appearance in Order of the Phoenix.
Jones remarked:
I know that the filmmakers have a problem with each new film because the books are getting longer — there's so much to include in them.
Jones also commments on being in the second movie, Chamber of Secrets:
The thing I feel very, very proud of is the fact that I get mail just about every week of the year from all parts of the world — very nice mail thanking me for that way I voiced the character and saying how accurately I did it. So it's a great addition to my life and a very unexpected one. I had no idea that the character would have that much impact.
The article also mentions that the character of Kreacher will be in the movie and that sharp eyed fans should be on the look out for clues that may happen since JK Rowling told screenwriters what is important to include in the movie adaptations.

I can't beleive Dobby is out! I think the film makers just hate him, I thought he had a big part in the movie. Because of telling Harry about the Room of Requierment and making sure the people got out on time before Deloris showed up.

I'm sad that Dobby isn't going to be in the film, but I'm glad that Kreacher is, because that means that the storyline of how Sirius is killed should remain the same as the book!

Without Doby I could survive for the movie but Kreacher is the one we really need in that one... because of what happen to Sirius after that visit from Harry in Grimmauld Place.

Ah well, they were bound to make changes here and there. It would be wishful thinking to hope they would make as few changes as possible to the screen version of the book. I'm sure it'll be a good movie even without Dobby. Dobby, you will be missed.

Thats not fun! I really wish they wouldn't take so much out of the books in the movies! The books are so great, but many people don't read them because they just watch the movies!

Well I'm just going to trust the film makers with this one because I know that they are making the decision for a reason. We all know that the movie is still going to be great.

Well, I would like Dobby to be in the movie, he was so sweet in the second one. At least there's Kreacher!

That's too bad, but I was sort of expecting it.
Of course, Kreacher has to be in the movie because he is very pivotal to its plot. I guess this means that he might be important to Book 7 as well...?

No Dobby means no drunk Winky, which means no scenes of the kitchens and all the houselves OR how Harry properly finds out about the Room of Requirement! I'm looking forward to seeing how Kreacher turns out to look like though.

Yea, I was a little worried that they would try to cut him out but he is kind of important to the book so I'm happy that they have him in there now. Yea! Even if I don't like the thing. L.o.l.

If Dobby isn't in the movie, then how does Harry learn about the Room of Requirement? And who warns him when Umbridge is coming? But that's good there will be clues to the future of Harry Potter in this movie. I'm still really excited to see it!

As long as Kreacher is there, disturbing the peace I am happy, I wonder if they were hinting at Kreacher's looks have to be a certain way or if something he does has to be done a certain way, like taking a certain LOCKET! hehehe

But I love love love Dobby! I was upset when he wasn't in the last moive. This is why I am saying that the movies are too short to have all of the genius and magic of the books... *sniff* such a tragedy...

It is a shame that Dobby isn't going to be in the movie. That guy really did do the voice well. I am glad that Kreacher will be in it because I think he is important.
