Sorry I know there is a thread somewhere about who should be who but it was ages ago and search isn't helping me and I should be in bed, so anyway if you want to move me please do.

Anyway..... I have just read that Jim Broadbent is going to be Slughorn, which I think is great because he's such a great actor.

He'll be good!

I hope Stephen Fry makes the cast as well... not sure what role he would play though

Stephen would be good but he is already the voice on the books well the Uk ones.

Fry was "in" Goblet of Fire, after all. As "Narrator." Maybe there's a chance for a costume card for what he wore to the dubbing session.

In the Film?

I just saw Hot Fuzz with Jim Broadbent.  Funny movie!  Filch (forgot his real name) was in it too as the farmer with the barn full of weapons.

Oops, my mistake. I didn't notice that IMDB included listings for the video games too. I must have thought that "VG" was a new ratings category.  :-X

I guess I have to revise my total of HP actors who appeared in Gormenghast to five.

I didn't know that Stephen narrated the video games! I'll have to replay my GOF game :)

I don't think he did all of them.

Hot Fuzz is brilliant!

I'm really happy about Jim Broadbent's casting as Slughorn. I really think he will do justice to the complexities of the character.

I don't know about anyone else, but I thought Slughorn was mighty complex with regard to the various emotions the reader felt for him. I rolled my eyes, laughed, was disgusted a time or two, pitied him, etc. I think Jim Broadbent will bring out all those feelings beautifully.  :)
