During the BAFTA's this weekend, Harry Potter baddie, Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy), discussed
his disappointment at not appearing in Half-Blood Prince but is hoping to return for the Deathly Hallows movie.
I hope I'm coming back for seven. Dan's going to Broadway to do his play for a long time, so I don't know when or if I'm going to come back. But I'll be even more bitter if I don't get to return for seven!
Isaacs also told us how positive the Harry Potter experience was for him and many of the actors involved. Everybody likes each other and knows each other. The whole thing goes very easily and there's none of the normal tension you have on films wondering about whether it'll work, because we know it works.

I guess it makes sense he will not be in Half Blood Prince but I do hope he is in Deathly Hallows because his part is important.

His character won't be the same as it was if Malfoy gets into film 7... he's rather... dimmed.

Aw, I'm gonna miss him in HBP. I'm glad he's looking forward to returning in DH, I can't imagine any one else playing Malfoy. Im sure WB will keep him though, He plays his character really well.
*Happy Valentines Day*

Jesus, Dan must come back for Deathly Hallows. It's out of the question. I can't see how Broadway could be more important than the Harry Potter movies to him. *sighs*

Who, then, will appear in the movie? They've already dismissed Clemence Poesy, and I'm beginning to wonder who will be next. Again, Lucius is strictly speaking a secondary character, but has an important part in the plot all the same. Who on earth takes such irrational decisions?

He's gotta return for DH, does he? I mean, Lucius really isn't in HBP so it's not surprising that he doesn't have a part, but he does have a good role in the book seven...I guess you never know with the movies.

He looks so much different without that blond wig! I hope he returns for movie 7, and I can't beleive that there's a question of whether or not he should return in the first place!! Of course we need Lucius in the final movie!! Don't tell me they're going to think about cutting Malfoy Manor!!

Ah, I love Jason, and I want to see him in the DH movie! I would love to see him and Narcissa together in a scene, and we need to see the Malfoy's as a family in the final movie!

That's impossible!!! WHY isn't he there?!
I'm kind of concerned about HIM and the Bill/Fleur storyline not being in HBP...

He should be in the 7th film after all he played a very important role in the book and I swear to god if they make the last film bad just because they wanted to save money by cutting scenes out I'm going to freak out on Warner Bros.

He must come back for no 7! He plays Mr. Malfoy very well and it would be so strange to put out an important character as his...!

Well...I hope so too! I can't imagine someone else playing the part and I truly hope his part isn't cut from the movie. He plays Lucius so very well.

He won't be in HBP? That is too bad. He better be in Deathly Hallows, there are some very good scenes with him. He is perfect as Lucious. I hope he will return for the final film.

I don't see how they could cut Lucius Malfoy's role in Deathly Hallows. It's certainly a pretty big part. And what are they going to do in Half-Blood Prince?? I wished they could have kept him in.

But he wasn't in the book, so how can he expect to be in the movie... really! But yes, they should include him in the last movie.

He better be back for Deathly Hallows or I will be barking mad.
But I am sure he will be in.
I love Jason Isaacs and respect him as an actor.
I love how dedicated he is to the books and the films.
That is more than we can say about "ahem" others invloved in the film.

That was kind of a silly thing to say by him. He is bound to come back since he plays a main role in the final book. Hasn't he read it? Jason should know that. Its not like he is a minor character like Mrs.Figg or Blaise Zabini.
