[HPFGU-Movie] Re: Your favorite actor/actress in HP movies

[Mrs. Lex Luthor]

If you haven't seen them you should watch his "Richard Sharp" Series its a very well done British series. Which I paid an arm and a leg to get lol

Another actor I'd like to see is Ewan McGregor (He's not everyone's cup of tea) I would like to see him as a death eater.  though he's not British either so that rules him out too, oh well.

Love,
Red

That's not David Wenham's fault, of course.

Unfortunately, he's Australian, and JKR wants the casting (except for
roles like Krum and Karkaroff in GoF) to be strictly British.

don't think its really fair how J. K just wanted all British she was
limiting herself very much. I love Sean Bean as the bad guy he plays
such a good one.

Carol again:

I guess I made it sound as if Sean Bean, like David Wenham, is
Australian. He isn't; he's British, and fair game for HP casting. I
just meant that I wish he'd been cast in some HP role. I suppose they
could have cast him as Thorfinn Rowle, the big blond DE who wreaks
such havoc in HBP, but he'd have to wear padding, and I'd rather see
him fight well than badly. So I'm back to a miscellaneous DE, unhooded
and unmasked. But I wouldn't call Boromir in LOTR, either the book or
the film, a bad guy (in contrast to, say, Ian in "National
Treasure").
He was a very sympathetic Boromir. I especially loved the scene in the
forest after Gandalf's fall when he talked to Aragon about the White
City and hearing the people shout, "The lords of Gondor have
returned!" That man can act, and, if I may say so, he's beautiful to
look at.

Carol, who suspects that Gellert Grindelwald in his prime looked
something like Sean Bean (with a German accent)
