emmathompsonEmma Thompson, Professor Trelawney in the Harry Potter films, has squashed rumours that there was any bitterness in her decision to appear in a Nanny McPhee sequel instead of reprising her role in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The two films have a conflicting filming schedule, forcing Thompson to make the choice.

"I wasn't being rude at all. I was never going to be in the next 'Harry Potter.' I sort of put that to bed." She has chosen to star in the sequel to "Nanny McPhee" as the title character instead.
