According to Clémence Poésy her character Fleur Delacour will not be making
in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which is currently being filmed in the UK.
Ms. Poésy, currently doing promotion for her new movie, In Bruges, which also stars Brendan Gleeson and Ralph Fiennes, discusses having not finished reading the last three books, which she hopes to do soon during her vacation, and discusses working once again with her fellow Potter actors.

This is rather surprising to me.
I fihured they would have to intorduce Bill in this one. I mean it's like the other Weasleys don't exsist in the movies. And what will that mean for Bill and Fleur in the seventh one. I mean they are a huge part of that book. What about Bill's attack. This is pretty disappointing to hear, actually.

Well, her charcter should have got a reprieve as she needs to be present in HBP for sure.

If there is no fleur in HBP then there will not be any EXCESS of PHLEGM !!!!
And also there will be no the scene at the hospital (after the fight)where Mrs Weasley and Fleur sob and hug each other.........

This really bums me out. Not only was the stuff between Fleur and Molly fun, but that scene at the end where she shows how much she loves Bill is really a great one for her character. Plus, now I'm wondering if Bill's not ever going to show up. I really want to see Bill. They'd better be in DH, especially since their role is much bigger. Though I guess I could see how they could introduce the whole Bill/Fleur thing at the beginning of that movie, and Harry would just act like it's all news to him.
The other thing that concerns me is that the Bill/Fleur scene at the end was the trigger for Lupin and Tonks finally getting together, so now I'm wondering if they're cutting that relationship out of the films, or just making it less angsty.
Also, I haven't heard anything about Greyback being in the film (unless I've missed something) and if they do cut out the part where he attacks Bill, are they going to cut him out altogether? And if he's not in DH, again, they'll have to work around him. Which I suppose they could do easily enough, but there's no need to. Greyback is a pretty memorable character and one that I really would like to see in the movies.

Fluer does not feature much in HBP but it is likely to return for DH as the death & burial of Dobby will be a very poignant scene for DH.

Well, that is sort of disappointing. I dont really know how they are going to work that, but I guess we will just have to see. I hope that she will agree to be in the last movie, though I kind of think it is more important for her to be in the sixth movie. oh well...

No way! No Mrs. Bill Weasley? That sucks. I would've loved to see her interaction with the other Mrs. Weasley. It would have been a cute scene.
Oh well. I see where they're coming from. And despite that, I still can't wait for the movie.
...She better be there for the last one, though. Deathly Hallows won't be complete without the wedding! :)

This is unfortunate. I had no idea that she wouldn't be staring in this film. Does that mean she won't be back for Deathly Hallows as well? I was looking forward to the wedding scene. *smiles*

This is very disappointing! - No Phlegm at the Burrow?...No Ginny imitating her?... And no "I am good looking enough for the both of us, I theenk"?!... No "all these scars show is zat my husband is brave"?!... No Bill at all, perhaps?... No wedding in the last film, maybe?... I'm sorry to say it, but this is pure RUBBISH.
I understand they have to cut down some things, but at this rate, there won't be much left of the story!

And so begins the chopping-up of the books ...
No Fleur and Molly moments;
Bill getting attacked by Fenrir; and
Molly and Fleur united in the hospital wing.
Bummer. So this is going to be as flimsy as the last movie. Great.

What? No "Phlegm?"... I mean Fleur? Well, now I'm really curious about DH and how that will be written. I think the more they cut out in one movie, the more difficult it becomes to write the next one!

What's this gonna do to the whole Bill-Fleur sub-plot. I know she was only in a portion of HBP, but DH featured her in a bigger role. I'd like to see their wedding kept in. It is, after all, where we first met Xenophilius and started learning about the DH symbol, and where the trio was forced to flee due to Death Eaters. I really hope they'll keep Fleur in DH.

No phlegm!!! I wish they wouldn't cut things this important!!! It is the needed setup for the wedding, which they better have in DH! I am so sad now.

Well, that's great that she is continuing her acting! Sometimes it's difficult to go from one type of film to another.

I think they should have included her... Bill and Fleur i think was important in the last two books. But really, i can't believe she hasn't finished reading the books yet!

What??? I loved the excess of phlegm chapter, even though it made Ginny look somewhat bratty. Fleur flipping her hair everywhere... Also, a favorite scene of mine is where Bill has been attacked and his face is ravaged by scars, but Fleur said that it didn't matter and that she was beautiful enough for the both of them. That was such a great line, and it showed the sacrifices of war and how deep and true love can be.
No Gaunts, no Fleur, what will be left in this film anyway??

Huh. But how are they going to do the wedding...?
Well, I'm sure they'll find some way.
It's to bad, though, I kind of like Fleur.

Thats quite a big part to cut, but I suppose a lot will have to be as it's such a long book. I quite liked Fleur and Bill's little romance though! Does this mean they won;t have the wedding scene in DH?
