| | |  Jamie Campbell Bower talks teen Tom Riddle role in Half-Blood Prince
Over two years ago, Jamie Campbell Bower mentioned that he had auditioned for the role of teen Tom Riddle in Half-Blood Prince (which eventually went to Frank Dillane). Jamie now talks about how he didn't get the role but was invited back to play Grindelwald in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Quote: Ar you happy that you snuck in under the wire to be a part of the Harry Potter series at its end?
Yeah, I’m incredibly happy. I went up for a role a few years ago. Didn’t get it. [Director] David Yates called me up…well, I shouldn’t say, “called me up.” His assistant called my agent, who then called me. [Laughs] And they offered it to me and I was more than happy to do it.
Which role had you gone up for before?
I went up for the young Voldemort. Was that the second film or the sixth? Oh, I don’t know. It was a few years ago.
Photos of Jamie at the US premiere of New Moon from Monday can be found here.

It was definitely the 6th and he SHOULD know that considering he would've been like 12 when the 2nd film came out 9 years ago. I think a smart person could tell the difference between 2 years ago and 9 years ago. But whatever. | |

Hmm yes. I still think he's a little strange ad he doesn't seem to know much at all about the movies he's in.

Nice pics from yesterday's LA premiere.  I kinda wanted to go, but I would hate dealing with the obnoxious crowd.

I think he is always too cheerful in his interviews and doesn't mean to be ignorant about the films. He is definately smart enough to know the difference between 9 years ago or 2 years back, but I don't know why he always finds it necessary to disappoint us. But I'm glad that he admits to be happy for being a part of this franchise. His appreciation is enough to keep my faith in him.

He seems ignorant but I think that's just his style really. Besides just because he may seem non-committal or seem not to know much about the film that doesn't give anyone the right to say or imply that he's stupid.
