Bytes: Dobby Cut From Potter 5
- Dobby, the computer-animated Jar Jar of the Harry Potter franchise, will not appear in the fifth film HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX. In the book, the house elf plays an important role in warning Harry of several dangers, but it’s unknown at this time how the filmmakers will handle the character’s absence. Kreacher, another house elf who’s bound to Sirius Black’s family, makes his first film appearance in PHOENIX, which opens July 2007. [Link]
