Everything you need to know about Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

While Voldemort is officially back in the Wizarding World, the Ministry of Magic is refusing to accept it, instead claiming Harry is fear-mongering after the events of Goblet of Fire.

In response to Harry’s “lies”, the Ministry appoints the cruel Dolores Umbridge to Hogwarts, who strips back the school’s curriculum to its bare bones.

Desperate to be prepared and protected, and growing increasingly frustrated at the absence of his mentor, Professor Dumbledore, Harry, Ron and Hermione need to think fast.

Inspired by the Order Of The Phoenix – a secret club previously run by Harry’s parents, Sirius, Remus Lupin and others – they decide to start their own in order to teach and battle spells with their classmates.

But a chilling prophecy signals something much bigger to come.
