A custom image of a hand holding Slytherin's locket in the Harry Potter movies
The Big Picture Out of all the Hogwarts Houses, Slytherins have the worst reputation. The Harry Potter franchise often makes them out to be the villains, and it's easy to see why. With the likes of Voldemort , Bellatrix Lestrange , and Lucius Malfoy , there are plenty of examples of Slytherins who grew up to be evil. But that is not a fair representation of the entire House. Just like there are evil Gryffindors — think Peter Pettigrew — there are heroic Slytherins.

Rowling Expand The Harry Potter Films Mention Regulus But Don't Do Him Justice Regulus is impossible to cut from the story entirely, but the films greatly reduce his part.
The Harry Potter Books Tell the Full Tragedy of Regulus Black Regulus' story is one of redemption. Coming from one of the few pureblood families, Regulus was an ideal follower of Voldemort. From the portrait of his mother and his family's reaction to Sirius' rebellion, it's clear that Regulus was raised to believe that wizards were a superior race, making becoming a Death Eater an easy jump. Plus, his cousin, Bellatrix Lestrange, was one of Voldemort's most trusted allies.
The Harry Potter Films Cheat Regulus By Cutting His Story By leaving out the details of Regulus' story, the films minimize his actions and the complex motivations that led to his choices. The films never explain his relationship with Kreacher or the fact that Regulus could have survived if he were willing to let Kreacher die instead. Regulus' death was selfless as he went to his death, only hoping to aid in Voldemort's defeat and expecting no recognition or praise for his sacrifice.
