According to Ain't It Cool News, John Cleese won't be appearing in the film version of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. From the interview:
QUINT: IN "HARRY POTTER AND THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN."
JOHN CLEESE: Oh, I'm not in it.
QUINT: YOU'RE NOT IN IT?!?
JOHN CLEESE: No... or at least I don't think I am. The producer tried to get a hold of me at some stage, but I think he got embarrassed. I heard that I wasn't in the third one, but that I was going to be back in again for the fourth. I haven't spoken to anyone involved in the HARRY POTTER movie about it.
QUINT: WELL, I'M GLAD YOU'RE STILL IN "GOBLET OF FIRE..."
JOHN CLEESE: Well, I haven't heard from them for ages, but I was told I was going to be in the fourth one.
Read the whole interview.

This is quite a dissapointment. Alfonso Cuaron could have put him in the background, you know, just gliding along a corridor or summat

I think it's nasty not to have Nick in the film since he is in the book of POA, I really like Nick. WE WANT HIM BACK!
