One of the most noticeable was Julie Walters, who played Molly Weasley throughout the entire film series. As it turns out, her absence in the special is most likely part of her semiretirement from acting.
Walters played Molly Weasley, the matriarch of the Weasley family, in the Harry Potter film series (2001–2011). Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is the only film in the series not to have included Walters.
Because of the dates of the World Cup and Hogwarts Autumn Term, as well as getting Harry and Hermione permission, they wouldn't have had time to all go.
It's not that she was necessarily unemployed, but she was a housewife. She had to take care of the kids that weren't at Hogwarts yet, like Ginny before Chamber of Secrets.

Weasley didn't make an appearance, but it is worth remembering that Walters largely retired from acting in 2020. This decision was made after a previously undisclosed bout of cancer.
Rowling Says She Didn't Want To Be A Part of the Reunion
The reason she says is because they weren't really about the books. “I was asked to be on that, and I decided I didn't want to do it,” said Rowling. “I thought it was about the films more than the books, quite rightly. That was what the anniversary was about.”
Harry Melling (Dudley Dursley)

This idea was incredibly embarrassing to him since Ron vehemently did not want to be cared for by his rich and famous best friend. This is precisely why Harry never tried to give the Weasleys money or give Ron lavish gifts - they didn't want pity.
To save time to explore the most important storylines, Charlie's character was unfortunately cut.
But this poverty is created due to a limitation of magic creating a scarcity of resources such as food and other goods. As Rowling said in an interview “Something that you conjure out of thin air will not last.” (World Exclusive) If we posit a world where magic is limitless, families like the Weasleys would not exist.
No, we don't know what spell did Molly use to take down Bellatrix, but it certainly wasn't Avada Kedavra.
Molly Weasley isn't stronger than Bellatrix.
Apparently, the rules state that if your name comes out of the goblet, you must compete. Dumbledore says that Harry doesn't have a choice, because it's a binding magical contract.

Hermione and Viktor Krum
From even the earlier films, we all knew Hermione Granger was meant for Ron Weasley. But before their ultimate expression of love in the final film, Hermione went to the Yule Ball with one of the Triwizard Tournament's champions, Viktor Krum (Stanislav Ianevski), in Goblet of Fire.
Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody managed to alter the Triwizard Tournament in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as the one who put Harry's name in the Goblet of Fire, but it took a well-orchestrated plan.
Bill is viciously mauled by the werewolf, Fenrir Greyback. Fortunately, as Fenrir was not transformed at the time, Bill did not become a werewolf, though Madam Pomfrey is unable to completely heal his face, and he remains permanently scarred.
They are around two years older than Ron and Harry, and were in Gryffindor, following in the footsteps of their family. They are tricksters, always inventing new tricks and playing practical jokes on their schoolmates and teachers. Their best friend is Lee Jordan. Fred and George Weasley were born on April 1st, 1978.
William Arthur "Bill" Weasley (b. 29 November 1970) was an English pure-blood wizard, the first child of Arthur and Molly Weasley (née Prewett) and the eldest brother of Charlie, Percy, the late Fred, George, Ron, and Ginny.
As other people said, it is also due to the Malfoys' arrogance, the feeling of self-importance and wealth. The Weasly family is also very poor, which may also lead to a dislike with the rich, pureblood families.
The couple came to trust the Weasleys very much, allowing their daughter to stay at their house over the holidays, prior to the school term, and to go to the Quidditch World Cup in 1994. The two families were brought even closer when Hermione married Ronald Weasley and had Rose and Hugo.
Hermione also knew that her parents, and anyone else she associated with, would be in serious danger because of her friendship with Harry. And so, she chose to erase herself from her parents' minds. Hermione wanted to keep her parents safe from Voldemort by ensuring he had no reason to come knocking.
"I was asked to be on that," she said. "I decided I didn't want to do it. I thought it was about the films more than the books, quite rightly. That was what the anniversary was about."
As a recent guest on The Graham Norton Radio Show, Rowling rebuffed the suggestion that she was in any way “excluded” from the special — after all, the Harry Potter creator has made headlines in recent years for controversial comments about transgender people — and then explained her decision to decline an invitation ...
McGonagall didn't join the Order of the Phoenix at first because she was spying for the Ministry of Magic.
