Here is a short from the Movie and TV News section of the IMDb:

Richard Harris For Harry Potter Movie

Former movie hellraiser Richard Harris is to cast a spell in the first
ever Harry Potter movie. The
Gladiator (2000) actor has been picked to play the role of the Hogwarts
headmaster in the Hollywood version of J.K. Rowling's best-seller, Harry
Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001). Harris will play Dumbledore, the
wizard who shields Harry from his arch enemy Lord Voldemort. The search
is still underway to find a young actor to play Harry himself. And Alan
Rickman is to play the mysterious Professor Snape, who teaches potions
to young Potter.

Excellent choices, may I add.
