| | |  Bill Nighy talks being cast in Deathly Hallows & working with David Yates
At last night's celebration for Hamley's toy store's 250th Birthday Party, actor Bill Nighy spoke about his upcoming turn as Rufus Scrimgeour in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Photos of Bill and costar Helena Bonham Carter (Bellatrix Lestrange), who also attended the bash, can be seen below. 
 Quote:
"It came about simply because they asked me, finally, to be a wizard - I thought I was going to be the only English actor of a certain age who wasn't in Harry Potter but now that turns out not to be the case," he said.
Quote:
"I know most of the cast, I've worked with most of them at some point or another. They were all very generous and it was a really nice job," he said.
"I am working again with David Yates, who I've worked with four times altogether now and I love working with him. And it was nice to see Julie Walters, who I sort of started out with."
Bill briefly mentioned what it was like working with the three stars, Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson. Quote:
"It was great working with Daniel and all the guys and they were very very good fun. They all made me very welcome, because they've all been together for years and years and years," he added.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be out November 19, 2010 and July 15, 2011.  | |

I love how he says he didn't want to be the only British actor who wasn't in the films.

He doesn't fit the picture I had of Scrimgoeur, but might be an interesting one.
