Let's suppose that we could give WB a time turner, and they could
bring their pick of acting genius of the illustrious past for HP.
(No - let's say they were REQUIRED, since none of the names given
below have ever outgrossed Jim Carrey or Adam Sandler)
A few preliminary suggestions off the top of my head.
Albus Dumbledore - Alec Guinness
Minerva McGonagall - Joan Crawford
Severus Snape - Basil Rathbone (Rickman as Snape? don't make me
laugh - Rathbone owns this role)
Rebeus Hagrid - Wallace Beery
Gilderoy Lockhart - Errol Flynn
Remus Lupin - Ronald Colman
Sirius Black - Richard Burton
Cornelius Fudge - Roland Young
Lord Voldemort - Peter Sellers (we usually think of Sellers in terms
of Inspector Clousseau, but he had a special flair for darkness -
just think of Dr. Strangelove!)
Peeves - Benny Hill
- CMC
