Oooh, yes I totally agree. I never thought about him doing Mundungus. 
I have struggled to think who would do him justice. You know the 
absentminded, not too responsible and somewhat of a lush but 
basically good guy wizard. I loved Bob in Hook and he and Ralph 
Fiennes were IMHO the ONLY saving grace for Maid in Manhattan. In 
case you don't remember him he was the lead butler at the hotel. But 
yes, I would love to see him play Mundungus. 

Personally I had been rooting for Sir Anthony Hopkins for Moody 
though I knew that was a pipe dream. 

Mostly, I am curious as to who is going to play Narcissa, and 
Bellatrix. I want Kristin Scott Thomas for Narcissa and Natasha 
Wightman for Bellatrix. I loved both of them in Gosford Park and they 
were such perfectly snobby rich people in that movie that I 
immediately thought of these two characters. And Natasha has that 
dark brooding look about her.
