Either John Cleese or Peter O'Toole would be delightful. Though, 
Cleese might be slightly too comedic for the role.  Anyone recall any 
dramas he's been in?  Peter O'Toole I know has done both comedy and 
drama admirably and would be an interesting Dumbledore.  

As for Rufus Sewell, oh God, I hope he might be at least considered 
for Sirius Black. (If there's enough money for the sequels. *knock on 
wood*)  I think he would be excellent.  I admit, I've been a fan ever 
since I saw him play John Murdoch in Aex Proyas' Dark City. 
(Excellent movie, a mix of sci-fi and noir, highly recommend it if 
you haven't seen it yet!)  He's had some experiance with such roles, 
he certainly looks the part, and he's a talented actor.

Checked the files for other names mentioned.  I still Maggie Smith, 
wonderful actress that she is, is too old for McGonagall.  I thought 
the good Professor was merely in her forties?  Or is that being kind?
Hmmmm.... and thanks for the notice on moving.  Yes, I'm very late, 
but been busy with work and new semester, and I always like making an 
entrance!  LOL!
