James and Lily have, allegedly, been cast.
- The actress named as Lily is Geraldine Somerville, who some people may 
know as Jane Penhaligon from the British TV series "Cracker" (which starred 
Robbie Coltrane).
- The actor named as James is Adrian Rawlins, who was in the Lars Von Trier 
film "Breaking The Waves".  He seems to do a line in "handsome doctors" or 
untidy-haired heroes.  He was also in the horror film, "Blood" and the film 
"Different For Girls".

Hmmm, maybe it is just me, but I strongly disagree with that man as James.  
Maybe it is because the picture is old, but I don't know.  Lily is not so 
bad.  She does look semi-how I pictured her, but they have to make her eyes 
more green, they are too blue-green.  Also, I always thought that when Harry 
sees them in the Mirror of Erised, he sees them as they were before they 
died, not as they would be now.  So I can see Geraldine playing someone 
younger but I don't see Adrian as playing a young guy.  But then again, 
maybe he DID see them as their older selves, but they DO have to be their 
younger selves for the photo album...

On THAT note, wouldn't it be great if we could catch a glimpse of sirius 
before Book 3, as in they cast him and stick his face in the album without 
making a big deal of it??

Other Movie/Not casting related items.  I posted this before, but I figured 
I would put it in a Casting Post where most would see it.  Start watching 
your local theatres for the trailer, I have a feeling it will be coming soon 
because my local theatre has the teaser Poster up outside with November 16, 
2001 as the release date.
