And you probably don't want him to be Fudge, do you?
Just noted that the woman playing Petunia - Fiona Shaw - was in The 
Avengers - Ralph Fiennes, who looked very good in a bowler hat in 
that movie, would probably make a reasonably good Fudge, except that 
he might be a little too young. And we probably can't have him as 
Fudge and his little brother Joseph as Lupin since they just look too 
much alike. 
And I'm putting in another vote for Rufus Sewell as Sirius - I saw 
cold comfort farm again last night. Wow.
