Nobody ever told us to cut out a scene - we did it of our own volition because it didn't feel right, or it wasn't best for the film we were making.

And there's a reason why we delivered those. I understand that fans may enjoy them, but for me, I always feel marginally uncomfortable in the sense that they're not the film that we delivered. I know some scenes have been fitted in - ABC, who showed some of the films in the US, had extended cuts which included some of the deleted scenes. Partly it's bringing down the length, but partly the scenes don't fit within the arc or drive of the film. When you leave scenes out, you leave them out for a reason. Would you ever release extended editions of all the Harry Potter movies with all the scenes that were shot but didn't even appear in the DVD extras? Hayman answered questions from the fans in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the first Harry Potter movie. It is believed that the extended version of movie 3-8 shown on TV was edited by the TV Network itself, as Warner Brothers don’t seem to acknowledge the existence of these extended editions.ĭavid Hayman, a producer of all the Harry Potter films, was asked about the extended versions in an interview with Empire Magazine. However, there have been rumours that Alfonso Cuarón did not want to create an extended edition of Prisoner of Azkaban, so therefore Warner Brothers scrapped it for the rest of the series. There has never been an official explanation as too why only the first two films have gotten official releases of the extended versions. Film 3-8 are shown as extended versions on the TV Network that owns the broadcasting rights (formerly ABC Family/FreeForm, now USA Network and SyFy). They are the only extended editions released on DVD and Blu-ray. The Ultimate Edition releases of Sorcerer's Stone and Chamber of Secrets in 2009 included the extended versions of each film. The extended versions of the first two movies were first seen on the ABC Family TV Network in 2004. The Harry Potter Extended Versions have the deleted scenes, found on the home movie releases, cut back into the film.
