Role for Patrick Stewart

[torillgrnhaug]

No need to lurk back, is it, your opinions are most welcome!!! 

I'm sorry about that Britishness thing, my mistake. I don't know very
much about Patrick Stewart, assuming everybody with some Hollywood
(Hollyweird, hehe..) experience to be American of course was foolish
of me!!

And I understand what the writers among you are saying, that of course
you can have the thought of one actor in mind while you write about a
character. It just sounded as if some of you wanted Rowling to
especially write a new part dedicated to Stewart, that would have been
 a bad idea. But let's not take this too seriously. I suppose, if the
poll was: would you like to see Patrick Stewart in one of the future
Potter films? then I guess the reaction would have been different, at
least for my part.
