| | |  Potter stars collaborate for 'Hitchhiker'
Two Potter stars, Warwick Davis (Flitwick) and Alan Rickman (Snape) are collaborating to bring one character, Marvin, to the silver screen for ' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy', according to Sci Fi Wire. Warwick plays the character while Alan provides the voice. Quote:
"I think I would have been disappointed being dubbed by another actor, but Alan is so unique, his voice is so unique. Nobody has a voice quite like Alan's, and I'm friends with him anyway from working on Harry Potter. When he was asked to do it he checked with me. 'Is this cool? Do you mind if I do this?' I said, 'No, no, it's great. I feel kind of honored that you're collaborating with me and that we're bringing this character to the screen together.'"

That's great! Nice to see that Rickman actually cared if he dubbed Warwick...

Its a sci-fi book, and the movie is coming out shortly. I never read it but I heard it was good, although that source was a rather weird character. Im sure others here would have a good oppinion about the book. It will be funny to see Warwick Davis with Alan Rickmans voice.

I am so excited about this movie! I just saw one of the first TV comercials for it ... I just hope they do Douglas Adams (may he rest in peace) justice. The man was a genius.

We won't actually 'see' him because he's gunna play a robot. Quote:
*Ottery is wondering if Britain needs more actors*
2 actors for one role would imply too many actors and not enough characters hence they must share. lol. improper logic Ottery! *slaps your wrist* Quote:
*hugs Alan Rickman's voice*
*husg with you* Seriously, he should do an audio-tape of bedtime stories. I'd love that. Aawwww.

It was distinctively Alan's voice, but it was made to sound more mechanical. After years of Die Hard, Rasputin, Robin Hood, HP etc....it was a bit of a shock (not that i'm complaining ;P) Quote:

::grins:: I don't know why, but I thought that comment was cute on both of their parts
