What are some of your favorite Snape moments from the Harry Potter saga? Alan Rickman was certainly the best option out of everyone to play him, and his portrayal will forever be iconic.(Image credit: Warner Bros.) Severus Snape Shielded Harry Potter, Ron, and Hermione From Professor Lupin And now, I know for a fact that I can never listen to “ Lily’s Theme” without crying ever again. It’s a bombshell of a moment, one that completely turns Snape’s character upside down as we knew it and made us all look at him in a different light. Harry also learned from the memories that Dumbledore was dying and they had planned for Snape to kill him.
After Snape passes away and Harry returns to the Pensieve in the headmaster’s office, he views the memory that Snape had given him, and it’s revealed that while Snape did hate Harry’s father, he loved his mother, Lily, always.Īfter her death, he worked as a double agent against Voldemort and the Death Eaters in order to protect Harry from Voldemort. It was during this moment we all collectively realized that Snape was, indeed, not a villain. (Image credit: Warner Bros.) Snape’s Memories (Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2)Ĭome on, you cried too. Which leads me directly into my next and last moment. But afterwards, when the Golden Trio arrives and tries to find a way to help him, Snape instead gives Harry one of his memories, and the way he looks at Harry as he’s dying - oof, that look gets me every time.
Thanks to how wands work, Voldemort believes he must kill Snape in order for the Elder wand to serve him, so he does so, having his pet snake, Nagini, do as he says and murdering the man. When Voldemort confronts Snape as to why the Elder Wand is refusing to serve him, he believes that it was because Snape had been the one to kill Dumbledore. However, his final moments of life in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 are telling for his character.
He killed Dumbledore, he hurt Harry, and ran away with the Death Eaters. (Image credit: Warner Bros.) Snape’s Final Moments (Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2)Īt this point, pretty much every fan thought that Snape was a villain.
