[HPFGU-Movie] All British Cast reference

[Sherry Gomes]

I don't know the reference at all, but I read, way back before Harry had
even been cast for the first movie, that JKR insisted on an all British
cast.  I read it in an article somewhere, like the Seattle times or
something.  I've heard this repeated over and over.  I don't have a problem
with this.  Her books are about Brits and take place in the UK.  why not
have an all British cast?  They've all been great so far.

Hi guys,
Just thought I'd give it a try to find some evidence that HP is 
always to have an all-British cast. I found this at a website called 

IMDb (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0330373/trivia) (Sorry I don't 
know how to do that linking thing...)

"According to rumors that circulated the Internet, both Rowan 
Atkinson and John Malkovich were considered for the role of Lord 
Voldemort. Both were proven to be untrue; Malkovich is, of course, 
an American, and doesn't meet the "all-British-cast" requirement."

Now this doesn't get us to who said there was an all-British cast 
requirement but it's getting closer. I'll keep looking.

Sorry I don't know how to do
