Nope I absolutely can't see it. I'm too used to seeing Johnathan 
playing bad boys, spoil brat and pyschotic villain (ex: Velvet 
Goldmine, Titus, Ghomaghast) and he plays extremely well and 
convincing in those kind of roles too. In fact his role in Bend it 
like Beckham is quite unfit for him IMO. I'm NOT convince he's the 
sporty goody goody nice guy throughout the entire film at all! I 
think it's because of his appearance, he got the 
druggie/decandance/punk look all over him, not to mention he has 
these beautiful deliciously evil looking eyes. In fact I can see him 
as a grown up  Draco easily instead. But Cedric? Nooooo way!!
