In a new interview
with actor Timothy Spall, Spall confirms that he will be making an appearance in the last two Harry Potter movies, Half-Blood Prince and Deathly Hallows
Well I'm actually.... yes... I'm in the next one. And I'm also in the one at the end - I have a very big scene in that. I think they might be shooting two of them back-to-back - hard to know though, what with this writer's strike and all. They're shooting the penultimate one at the moment - which I have a brief appearance in it. I should be doing that soon.

I read this news and I was going like: "of course he returns, he is Wormtail!" ... Then I realised I was stupid hahhha, it's tooo early in the morning here for me to be able to think :)
Anyway, it's good. I wouldn't want to see somebody else as Wormtail.

Glad his coming back for the final two! I can't believe it's all winding to a close so soon - it's a bit of a scary thought!

That's great news
I was sure Timothy Spall will return, as he Wormtail and he has to come back and save Harry and the others and ultimately die.
After all this news related to the upcoming film I am dying for HBP to release.10 months and 3 days left....!!! None of the HP fans can wait that long.~x(

Wow that's great! He is really important in the last book, that was a very special scene to me because he was James and Lily's friend and he finally realized that he had betrayed both of them...very touching.

I don't think it'll make that big of an impact because his roll has been limited. Either way is fine with me.

That's great. He played a great Wormtail. Such a sneaky hateful being. I can't wait to see more of his acting in teh last film, i'm sure it will add to the awesomeness of Harry Potter.

Just wouldn't be the same without Timothy Spall as that mousy little Wormtail anyway. He's just perfect for that role and I can just picture him sniveling his way through the last to movies.

Wonderful! I can't imagine anyone else playing the little rodent! Hahaha... Actually he does portray Peter very well and I am one of those people who gets stuck in the mode of the original actors cast in roles. I hate it when they change actors.

I can't even THINK of Deathly Hallows right now. The fact HPB is being made as we speak makes me too excited for words. The whole back-to-back shooting thing interests me too...does that mean they are definitely having Yates back and shooting them all at once?

I didn't consider that they might be shooting a scene from book 7 already, but I guess it makes some sense to do it that way.

Ijust assumed that he was coming back. He is so good as Pettigrew that I would have been very disappointed if he decided to back out.

That's awesome. I was trying to think of his name the other day when I saw him in a movie. He does a great job playing Wormtail.

Good Call!
Pettigrew is needed until book 7 and it is a good call for Mr. Spall to continue with the role until movie 7. He is a part of the story, do not delete the part just for the sake of the movie length. It s unfair for the audience.

Yey! I am glad about that cause he is a good actor. The only thing that is bugging me is what is this big scene in 7?
