<<...JK Rowling is not only hoping to cast the film entirely with UK
actors, but also completely with unknowns, because this way, the actors
will not be identified with any other character they have previously
played.>>

There's certainly successful precendent for that, such as a 1977 movie
that starred three relative unknowns named Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford,
and Carrie Fisher. What was the name of that charming little flick? <g>
Oh well, it was a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.

It sounds like goods news, Jeralyn. There won't be any wars over the
stars of this movie <g>.
