Deathly Hallows 2 Movie Will Depart From Book: Snape’s Death

Reblogged from kkblumush

The art director of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Andrew Ackland-Snow, recently revealed that Deathly Hallows 2 will depart from JK Rowling’s book! What! How could they?

Via Celebuzz…

The Deathly Hallows art director notes that Snape won’t die in the Shrieking Shack, as in the book, but rather the Boathouse. According to Ackland-Snow, the shift was made in order to give Snape a more “dramatic” venue to die in..

Ackland-Snow says:

“In the book, he dies on the Shrieking Shack, and we wanted to get him out from, not a conventional interior, but from that kind of box, to do it in a more dramatic atmosphere. We asked J.K. if she agreed for that to happen in there, because we hadn’t really seen it before…and she loved it. Besides, it’s a very romantic place to die. Snape dies in a extremely good way, I gotta say.”

Glad JK agreed because seriously guys, how can they change the adaptation to one of the greatest most creative books of all time? This better be very “romantic,” because I’m buying an extra box of bon bons at the theater to enjoy with this new ending.
