Miscellaneous Actor Speculation v4

bri8 · #**981** July 24th, 2007, 9:55 pm

I think the two actors i would love to see in parts are christopher lee and Jeremy Irons they are both so good.

I hope Stewart Townsend plays Bill. Stewart Townshend + fang earring + long hair =

Or he could play Scrimgeour or Fenrir. But make it Bill, please be Bill.

Naomi Watts is Australian though - doesn't that go against Jo's all British policy?

*Drusilla* · #**984** July 25th, 2007, 12:14 pm

She was born in the UK, if I'm not mistaken. And if you're going to break the policy, better to do it with an Australian, at least there's a greater correlation between British and Australian accents than British and American ones.
That said, I think she's well cast, at least as far as the looks go. Try imagining her as a sister to Bellatrix...
What I'm actually itching to know is, who are the two characters that Joseph Fiennes and Stuart Townsend will be playing? They both seem a tad old for Bill, and if they did feature Bill in the story they'd have to bring Fleur back, necessitating Clémence Poésy's return... one guess could be a young Riddle, if you used a heavy haze like we saw in

Spoiler: show

. Or wait, if they did show us Tom Riddle Senior, maybe...unless they do something like play Marvolo and Morfin.

Megin · #**985** July 25th, 2007, 12:17 pm

Probably will me Marvolo and Morfin, but then again, anyone could play Marvolo and Morfin because so much makeup and imagery will probably be used..

*Vampire_Girl* · #**986** July 25th, 2007, 4:56 pm

Yay! Stuart Townsend! He's awesome!

I can see him playing Tom Riddle Senior in a flashback more than I can see him playing Bill though.

...Stuart Townsend and Harry Potter....wow.....I never would have expected that.

*Drusilla* · #**987** July 25th, 2007, 6:05 pm

Yes, but we don't really see Riddle Senior in the book itself, only hear his voice- which makes me doubtful about whether we'll see him in the film or not, they tend to trim rather than add characters to the narrative..

I've already started a new thread for the casting of Horace Slughorn. I can see one of the following being cast in that part:

Jim Broadbent
Bernard Hill
Brian Blessed

But, i really THINK the Producers should rescind the "All English" casting rule and cast the following actor as Slughorn:

David Ogden Stiers

~~alittlefield~~ · #**989** July 27th, 2007, 2:20 am

Old Horrace, hmmmm, I know its completely out of the question, but in all seriouisness, Sir Sean Connery would make an excelent slughorn.

gambonrules · #**990** July 29th, 2007, 2:22 pm

Brian Blessed is a great idea for Slughorn, firstlensman!

hadn't even thought of him, but yeah, he'd be really good.

still, my money's on bob hoskins for slughorn. jk almost said so in that interview before the movie came out and they were on the same show.

plus, hoskins is shorter than blessed (I checked!).

u know, it's so funny about movies. i always thought blessed was like six foot ten cause he's always playing these huge guys. but he's only 5'9"!!

don't like bernard hill for slughorn.

here's who i think:

narcissa naomi watts
slughorn bob hoskins
scrimgeour bill nighy
bill weasly paul bettany

wilmer_harry02 · #**992** July 30th, 2007, 2:15 pm

It's confirmed. Naomi Watts recently signed to be Narcissa Black Malfoy, Draco's beautiful mother. Sister to Bellatrix Black Lestrange and Andromeda Black Tonks.

Naomi will give birth to a baby girl next month.

Naomi Watts it's known to act on movies like:
The Ring, The Ring 2, King Kong.

No doubt, she will be the PERFECT NARCISSA

gambonrules · #**993** July 30th, 2007, 2:41 pm

Wasn't that Naomi Watts as Narcissa debunked as a rumour?

Born in the UK Naomi Watts has dual citizenship.

*BurrowGhoul* · #**995** July 30th, 2007, 3:03 pm

Lately I've been thinking Daniel Craig would make a good Scrimgeour.

Thats what it said on Mugglenet...

Bob Hoskins NEEDS to play Horace Slughorn. And I'm sure he'll be the first one the producers go to for the part.

Rufus Scrimgeour should be played by Bill Nighy. He's expressed interest in having a role in the Harry Potter series, and David Yates has worked with him before, so who knows.

I'm hoping Naomi Watts will play Narcissa Malfoy.

I had a great idea for who could play Amycus Carrow...David Schofield. He played Mr. Mercer (Beckett's right-hand man) in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest and At World's End. Plus he looks like he'd be a good Death Eater. Granted, it'd only be a small part in HBP, but it would be expanded in Deathly Hallows.

vanravenclaw007 · #**998** July 31st, 2007, 10:18 am

I think Billy Connolly should be cast to play the role of Rufus Scrimgeour.
If you look at Billy Connolly he is the perfect description of Rufus even the
voice. What do you guys think???

flowerchild · #**999** July 31st, 2007, 5:22 pm

Oh my God. He looks just like Scrimgeour. He'd get my vote any day.

*LoonyMagic* · #**1000** July 31st, 2007, 5:27 pm

Oh my goodness. Yes! I never even thought of him as Scrimgeour! He would be the best person to play him =]
