He's a little too young; however, he might be okay as Barty Crouch Jr.
If it's anyone on Buffy who'll be decent in a Harry Potter movie it 
would be Anthony Stewart Head (Giles) IMO.

But I'm skeptical of casting Americans in a film that is set in the 
UK with UK characters. British actors and actresses are very good and 
under-appreciated in the US.
