| | |  Ciaran Hinds to play Aberforth Dumbledore in Deathly Hallows?
Reports are emerging today that representatives for Ciaran Hinds ( The Tale of Despereaux, There Will Be Blood, Calendar Girls) have 'expectations and hopes' that he will play Aberforth Dumbledore in Deathly Hallows. Warner Brothers have yet to comment on this casting. Jim McManus previously played the role in Order of the Phoenix. Photos of Ciaran can be seen here.    
Also, we told you last month that Nick Moran had been cast as a 'villain'. Word has it that he will be playing Scabior.

With a beard on, I think he could look how I imagined Aberforth pretty well.

What was wrong with Jim McManus playing Aberforth? He looks more like Dumbledore's brother. I guess with alot of makeup that can be done. Does this new guy have deep blue eyes like Albus? Yes, please keep us informed. His got a big part in HP movie #7B. | |

I could definitely see him playing the part of Aberforth....he has that dark mischievous look but also has a caring smile under it all...another great casting!!!!
PS....Sabior is one of the snatchers that caught Harry, Hermoine, and Ron when they said Voldemort.
Here's what it says at wikipedia for more information about him...
Scabior is a Snatcher in the gang led by Fenrir Greyback during the height of the Second Wizarding War. Given his association with and deference to Greyback, it is possible that Scabior is a werewolf
He was among the group that captured Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley in the spring of 1998. On Greyback's orders, Scabior checked the list of truants, searched the prisoners' tent for Harry's glasses, read a cutting from the Daily Prophet, and expressed terrified awe at the thought of summoning Lord Voldemort. He was also the only member of the group not to jeer when Greyback expressed a desire to bite Hermione, instead encouraging his leader to restrain himself. Scabior's last known act was at Malfoy Manor, when he drew his wand on Bellatrix Lestrange, lost a very brief duel, and fled with the other Snatchers.
It is possible that he was present at the Battle of Hogwarts as his superior, Fenrir Greyback, was also present.

Ooooh this will be interesting indeed 
I sort of feel bad about Jim Mcanus, the previous Abeforth, he would probably
have been great in the part too. And it's a shame he wont be able to show us
what he is capable of.
But I'm sure Ciaran will do an awesome job, if they decide to comfirm, and
and it's gonna be awesoooooooooooooooooome!  | |

Oooooh I've seen Ciaran before in an old BBC tv version of Persuasion with the actress who plays Aunt Petunia in it 
Seems a bit weird that they're changing the actor though-they probably didn't realise what a major part he'd be.

I guess he will work for Aberforth, I was hoping they would bring the guy back for OoTP, but I will trust the filmmakers!
I am curious to know what the word is, but good to know! yay!! 3 1/2 months!!

OK.
I'm always gonna picture him as Julius Caeser in "Rome",which may be weird....
What was wrong with the other guy?
I thought he did well when he was on-screen.

I guess he could look the part of Aberforth, but I don't see why they couldn't just have the person who played Aberforth in OotP play him in DH.

Oh yeah, this guy looks approximately like how I had imagined Aberforth to be ... hm ... lets see how he performs the role !
