Another snippet from "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" has been shared during the broadcast of the 81st Annual Academy Awards. Aired at the end of the coveted award show, the eight-second compilation of clips was a part of a montage. While it shows several footage seen in the trailer, it still includes extra never-before-seen scenes.

It also provides brief shots of Harry looking in the Pensieve, Ron and Hermione looking upwards at something and Draco drawing out his wand on the Hogwarts Express. Another footage presents Dumbledore and Harry in a cave as Dumbledore grasps a chain to lift the Voldemort's old boat from the waters.
