(At about one hour and forty minutes) It was mistakenly reported that this film would include several nude scenes of Daniel Radcliffe, which led fans to speculate that the film would receive a stricter rating. This turned out not to be the case. Although the footage of Harry and Hermione kissing in the scene where he tries to deter Ron appears to give the illusion that both Radcliffe and Emma Watson are naked, in reality both were wearing jeans and Watson was given a strapless bra so that she would not have to be completely topless. Director David Yates said full nudity was not necessary because the characters would be partly hidden by mist.

This includes Mundungus Fletcher's (Andy Linden) only role in the film series. In the books, Fletcher appears in every installment since Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix as one of the members of the order of the same name (he is introduced for failing to protect Harry from a Dementor attack). He was also briefly mentioned in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone/Sorcerer's Stone and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, but was always cut from the respective film adaptations.

Frances de la Tour reprises her role as Madame Olympe Maxime (from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)) in this film, even though the character does not appear in the book. As Fleur's former headmistress, she may have been invited as one of Fleur's wedding guests or as a member of the Order of the Phoenix. Viktor Krum (also from the Goblet story) featured prominently in the same scene in the book, and Stanislav Yanevski shot scenes playing Krum for the film, but they were cut from the final edit.

Production Story (29)

- #038
(At around two minutes) At the opening of this film, when Hermione (Emma Watson) is invited to tea, we can hear her parents talking about Australia and possibly a broadcaster on television mentioning the countryside. This is a nod to the book, where Hermione says that she not only erased her parents' memories but gave them new identities and made them believe they would love nothing more than to move to Australia, which we assume is what happened.
- #039
Daniel Radcliffe's stunt double, David Holmes, suffered serious spinal injuries when he was pulled back and hit a wall while performing aerial stunt work on set. The accident left him permanently paralyzed, with limited mobility in his arms.
- #040
Actress Evanna Lynch, as in her previous films, designed many of the clothes and jewelry she wore for the character Luna Lovegood, as well as many things for Lovegood's house. She even came up with the dance moves for the wedding scene, which she based on the concept of "wafting wrackspurts away" (the book says this is how she appeared to Harry).
- #041
More than five hundred wands were created for this film. They were checked and checked again before, during and after the shooting day was completed. Many came back broken.

Harry Melling (Dudley Dursley) had lost so much weight during the year he took off from the Harry Potter films that he had to wear special facial prosthetics in this film. Creating prosthetics that would look realistic enough up close took the makeup department about six months, but in the end almost all of his scenes were left on the cutting room floor.
- #046
Although it is clearly implied that Harry is descended from Ignotus (Ignatius) Peverell, the third and youngest of the three brothers named in the tale of the Hallows in The Tales of Beedle the Bard, the explanation of how Harry came to possess the Cloak of Invisibility was not elaborated further when the book and film were released. In September 2015, J. K. Rowling revealed some details on the subject above. One of Harry's ancestors was an eccentric wizard named Linfred of Stinchcombe, nicknamed "The Potterer", hence the surname Potter (shortened over time), and he was known to have produced various remedies from plants and herbs, including the Skelegro potion seen in the second film. Linfred's eldest son, Hardwin, married Iolanthe (Yolanda) Peverell, a beautiful witch from Godric's Hollow and the granddaughter of Ignotus. As there was no male heir in her line, she, being the eldest, inherited the Cloak. When she married Hardwin, her only wish and condition was the Cloak and how the heirloom had come into her family's hands; this was a fact that Hardwin also accepted and respected. Since then, the Cloak has been passed down to the eldest of each new generation, until it passed to Harry's father James before him.

The revelation that "R. A. B." is Sirius Black's brother Regulus was correctly guessed by book readers immediately after the publication of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" and about two years before "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows". The idea J. K. Rowling put forward for the series is that Black is the only character whose name can be easily translated into other languages. In foreign-language editions of the book where this surname was translated, R. A. B. was changed similarly, so that the "B" always matched the first letter of the word for black. For example, the Dutch editions translated Sirius Black as Sirius Zwarts and R. A. B. as R. A. Z. The Finnish editions used Sirius Musta and R. A. M.

Each of the unnamed characters in the Deathly Hallows story has a parallel character in this film. Each of the three brothers receives a gift from Death. Voldemort, like the first brother, seeks the wand that will win every duel. Voldemort eventually begins searching for the very Elder Wand mentioned in the story. Another brother wants the Resurrection Stone to bring back the woman he loves. Snape loved Lily Potter and tries to atone for having caused her death throughout the series. The third brother tries only to hide from death with the Invisibility Cloak, which he eventually gives up in order to accept his own mortality, and he and Death meet as old friends. Harry inherits an Invisibility Cloak from his father, but in the end he surrenders himself to be killed voluntarily. At the crossroads between life and death, Harry meets Dumbledore, who is certainly an old friend. Dumbledore himself, like Death, was at one point the owner of all three Hallows. Xenophilius Lovegood believes that the three brothers in the story were actually, or at least were based on, the three Peverell brothers. In the book it is revealed that Harry and Voldemort are descended from two of the brothers. In fact, the one mentioned in the story is Harry's Invisibility Cloak, and the Resurrection Stone was set into a family heirloom ring that Voldemort stole from his Uncle Morfin after killing his father and grandfather.

The scenes featuring Dobby and Kreacher were shot twice.

(At about two hours in) Scabior's violent spin through the air when Bellatrix uses her whip on him was not in the original script.

Moran was delighted until he realised the move had to be repeated several times for it to work.

The character Fenrir Greyback (Dave Legeno) is a reference to the wolf Fenris of Norse mythology. In that mythology, Fenrir bit off Tyr's arm and took part in Odin's death, triggering Ragnarok. The film shares some similarities: in the Seven Harrys scene, Bill Weasley (Domhnall Gleeson) recounts how his face was scarred by Fenrir in a fight, just as Tyr's arm was bitten off (note: this was first mentioned at the end of the Half-Blood Prince novel); a brief flashback of Dumbledore's murder can initially be seen; and in the previous film, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009), Fenrir was among the Death Eaters involved in the event, similar to Odin's death.

(At around one minute in) Near the beginning of the film, Hermione is reading the Daily Prophet in her bedroom. This mirrors the book, in which Harry reads the Prophet about Dumbledore's death in his room at Privet Drive.

Stanislav Yanevski reprised the role of Viktor Krum in the wedding scene, but his scenes were cut from the final film (although promotional photographs and behind-the-scenes footage of him dancing with Emma Watson exist). In the book Krum appears in the same scene and gets into an argument with Luna Lovegood's father over the symbol on his necklace, which Krum claims was once the mark of the dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald. When Harry later encounters the same symbol, it is this argument that reminds him where he first saw it. Xenophilius Lovegood then explains to him that it is the sign of the Deathly Hallows, used by people who believe in the legend. Grindelwald was obsessed with it and therefore began using it as his personal emblem, which is why Krum perceived it as a sign of loyalty to Grindelwald.

The character Griphook was played by Verne Troyer in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001).

Davis also played Professor Filius Flitwick throughout the series.
