Harry Potter And The Order Of Phoenix Behind The Scenes

On Set Secrets From Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix

The Harry Potter Franchise could definitely be considered one of the greatest fantasy series there is. Today we’re taking a look behind the scenes at the 5th Harry Potter movie, The Order of the Phoenix. This film is a special one, especially considering its when Albus Dumbledore passes away. This is also one of the Daniel Radcliffe movies that sees Harry facing VERY intense obstacles. So how did the actors spend their time on set? Tonks was spending her time playing original tunes on her guitar, while Matthew Lewis and Alfred Enoch spent their time playing cricket instead of doing homework. While they were on set, the actors were taught some very intricate wand choreography so they could properly portray the elite wand battling on screen! As for Fred and George Weasley, the actors who portrayed them, alongside Bonnie Wright, seemed to have a bit TOO much time on their hands when they were pulling pranks all over the set - especially one that actually involved a huge construction site across the road from their film studio!
There was one very big break taken during the shooting of the film - nine weeks in order for Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson to complete some major school exams! Speaking of Hermione and Harry - remember the scene where they were giggling incessantly with Ron discussing Harry’s kiss with Cho? That was pure laughter from the actors who by that point knew each other extremely well and were dear friends - the team kept the camera’s rolling and happened to include this improv in the final edit!
We’re covering all this and more including differences between the books and movies as well as some key directorial choices that made this movie the incredible film it was!

Stick around to find out which devastating scene they removed the sound from... and why🥺!

[kaylafarrelly]

I read somewhere that Harry’s scream after Sirius died sounded so real that Emma Watson and Rupert Grint came running onto the set because they thought that something had happened to Daniel.

'I have worked hard every single day that i was at that school" i can't- EMMA

[MissVasques]

RIP all those former HP actors whose life were cut way too short. So many lives lost.

[EshaysSahar]

Kreature had such a big role in the books in my opinion, his loyalty to Regulus, helping him with the horkrux and then helping Harry should have been included in the movies

2:40 According to Helena, he was a real bad ass too. He didn't scream out that he was hurt, but kept the scene going until they finished.
It must have been incredibly painful, but the kid has some incredible chops. He impressed Helena Bonham-Carter!

The scream was so powerful and evoked so much emotion that they took it out of the said no filmmaker ever....

2:41 Didn't know Bellatrix also tried to damage Longbottom with her wand in real life, lol.

For those who are wondering: When added all together, the Harry Potter books contain 1, 084, 171 words.

If You Hate Order Of Pheonix

Its Because Of Umbridge

[dawniebug]

I'm completely satisfied now that I know the twins caused real mischief

[ksbieee]

Harry's scream is real because it's silent because his grandma died that day the grandma that kept supporting him

[Heroas_Hamseros]

Imelda Staunton as Umbridge was amazing! She was so brilliant to act that crazy pink witch, so we can hate the character, but not the actress.

[kennichiro]

Order of the Phoenix is my favorite book of all the HP series and seeing it live in action was amazing. After seeing this video, made me love the movie even more.

[lordvenjix]

Harry Potter series is full of intense and sometimes scary onscreen moments, Movie magic takes some serious work on set, so the cast had to do things like climb toppling towers of furniture in the Room of Requirement, ride broomsticks hooked up to rigs that really moved and Stunt professionals were on set to pull off some amazing scenes, like falling 55-feet to a mat on the floor after being faced by dementors, but the cast was also able to take on some scary stunts themselves.

[lindalaufer]

Okay, tiny correction: Tonks' hair was actually violet when Harry first met her, and she changed it which was when Harry first learned about metamorphmagi.

[NightmareShark]

I wish they left the original scream from harry, imagine how much more emotional that scean would have been.

[blackcatt]

it makes me sad to realize it’s just fiction and harry doesn’t exist

[jetcitysinatra]

Keeping Harry's scream. silent was pure genius.

The thumbnail is voldemort just before his nose goes flat. Didn't realise it was dumbledore
