| | |  Casting report for Half-Blood Prince
Despite no director having been announced for Half-Blood Prince (although David Yates is considered likely to return), casting is apparently in progress for the film that's due to start shooting later this summer.
Specfically Icelandic actor Jón Páll Eyjólfsson (another photo can be seen here) is believed to have auditioned for the role of Young Voldemort (although the actor himself would not say which part he was being seen for). Quote:
“Everything is in a very sensitive stage but it is certainly exciting and it would be great if I get the role,” Eyjólfsson told Fréttabladid.
Quote:
“I have met the people who are behind this film and I have read from the script. At this stage you only get to see parts of the script and there is a lot of secrecy about this whole thing,” Eyjólfsson said.
He has apparently had call-backs and will get a final decision in May as to whether he's cast or not.
Eyjólfsson graduated from a London stage school in 2000 and was at school with Steven Kloves (who has written films 1-4 and 6), who suggested he go for the role.

I would've thought Ralph Finnes would play that role, or maybe even the guy that played Tom Riddle in CoS would play him.

I don't like his big forehead. 
I would rather see Christian Coulson from CoS come back for the role.
Anyway, there's plenty of time before they finalize anything, they could still pick anyone.

Actually I can see him playing young Voldemort, though I think the guy from COS was better looking (at least, to me!)

I hope David does stay. I'd rather Christian Coulson play Young Voldemort, but Jón Páll Eyjólfsson doesn't look too bad for the part, and he must be quite a good actor. | |

Personally I think it's more likely he'd be one of the Gaunts.

Oh good lord! I got terrified when I saw his iggy forhead!  Nope, I cant see him portraying Young Lord Voldemort. Not at all. Coulson should come back for the role though.  | |

I think he should play one of the Gaunts. It would suit him. How do you say this guy's name? So complicated.

He looks better for one of the Gaunts, not young Voldentmort I loved the guy who played him in CoS, now he was perfect for the role! And that forehead is creepy!

I sure hope Christian Coulson returns. He was brilliant *daydreams*
And this guy would hmm, prolly be a good choice for one of the Gaunts.

This guy they are thinking of casting doesn't look right. He doesn't look as suave and attractive as the young Tom Riddle was described to have looked. I think they should stick with Christian Coulson, who played Tom in Chamber of Secrets, now he is a cold but yet attractive looking guy *wonders if he doesn't want to do it*
