Casting for Phoenix

[Christine Acker]

Man, I sure would love to see Samuel L. Jackson as Kingsley.  He would be the perfect mix of intelligence, seriousness, and badassery.  :)  Too bad they don't cast Americans....

I read at Mugglenet that Imelda Staunton was being lined up for Dolores 
Umbridge, but it hasn't been confirmed. We've also heard that Anna 
Friel would love to play Tonks; and the giant squid ... well I think 
he's a dead cert to be honest (talk about timing, anyone would think it 
was desperate to get in the movies or something!!!)
Anyway it set me thinking about who could play other new characters 
that are introduced in Phoenix ...
My biggest desire (as I sit here musing) is for Patrick Stewart to be 
in it - if Kingsley Shacklebolt was white he'd be brilliant (but 
possibly a little short). But someone like Adrian Lester would be 
fabulous.
They are looking for someone to play Luna (go to Mugglenet for 
details), but the youngsters are so much more difficult to think about 
because they are usually virtually unknowns.
Liz Smith (one of Charlie's g.parents in Charlie and the chocolate 
factory) would certainly bring some comedy to Arabella Figg ... anyway 
suggestions are always interesting to read - join me in my totally 
useless, unproductive but fun musings ...
