Bart:
> 	For Peter Pettigrew: If you can get past the accent, Peter 
Lorre  (I'll 
> take Casablanca) would have made a GREAT Peter Pettigrew.

Ceridwen:
He'd be a great Peter Pettigrew.  The role was made for him!

How about Basil Rathbone as Snape?  Or, Jeremy Brett?  Both men 
played Sherlock Holmes, who has a physical resemblance, at least in 
descriptions, to Snape (*cough*nose*cough*).  I don't know how either 
would do the "softly simmering cauldron" speech, but being actors, 
I'm sure they'd rise to the occasion.

Of course, there's always the actor who portrayed the Sherrif of 
Nottingham in Robin Hood, Prince of Heaven... er, Thieves.  He'd have 
to shave, of course, but snark can't get much better.  ;)

For the portrait of Mrs Black: Gloria Swanson as Norma Desmond in 
Sunset Boulevard.  "I'm ready for my close-up, Mr. Van Gough!"

For Kingsley Shacklebolt, I've got to go with Denzel Washington as 
Don Pedro in Much Ado About Nothing.  So he'll have to shave his 
head.  Who cares?  Class, class, class, and hawt.

Mundungus Fletcher: Michael Keaton, same movie, in his role as the 
completely off-the-wall constable, Dogberry.

That's all I can think of just now.

Ceridwen.
