[FONT=Impact][COLOR=blue]I'm not too sure about Ralph Fiennes...just by looking at him, he doesn't really seem to fit my own image of Voldemort...it may be better with the makeup and such though. Everyone else seems perfect! Katie Leung (Cho Chang) is so cute. I'm sad that I cant' seem to find pics of Stanislav Ianevski (Krum) though...I found everyone else. I think Brendan Gleeson is gonna be perfect for Mad-Eye Moody too! Now if they would just announce Bill and Charlie Weasley...

OOh miranda richardson will be such a great rita, with make up and hair colour change, she is meant to have blonde hair, she was in snow white with kirsten kreuk and she was great as an evil queen!!

Yay for new confirmations. But it's weird -- I had totally envisioned Ralph as Lupin, and now he's playing Voldemort.

Oh well, hopefully I'll get over it. Also find it interesting how Ralph did a romantic comedy with Jennifer Lopez, you know, nice sweet fluff, and now he's [cue threatening music] the evil Lord Voldemort.
