[HPFGU-OTChatter] Casting Rumors

[Coble, Katherine]

Stardancerofas Frightened me by saying:


> There is a rumor, and I stress 'rumor' that Rowan Atkinson (of Mr.

Okay.  I almost said this as a *joke* the other day in my David Thewlis
thread.  They cannot be serious.
Although I _do_ prefer Rowan from BlackAdder.  He could be quite villainous
to poor Baldrick.  He was also
pretty wicked in _The Tall Guy_  (one of my favourite films).  

But I'm just not seeing it for LV.   Rowan as Lord Voldemort is absurd.   I
could see Rowan, however, in all of his
BlackAdder Smarm as Karakoff.

Lorrie (who is stardancerofas, I guess) also likes Marty Feldman.

Mycropht:
	I just don't see Marty Feldman being as gravely gruff as the part
calls for.  Somebody said Steve Buscemi, which makes my skin crawl, but
there you have it.  A matter of taste.
