Bill Nighy confirms Scrimgeour role in Deathly Hallows
 

We reported last week that actor Bill Nighy had been cast in Deathly Hallows. He revealed this weekend at the Oxfam Bookfest that he will indeed be playing Minister for Magic Rufus Scrimgeour in the seventh installment of the Harry Potter series.

A new photo of Bill at the book festival can be seen here:

Cool, awesome.:D

Well, everyone figured since that was the only part available.

Aah, wasn't that the guy someone said ages ago that they thought it would be him? Or is it someone who looks similar??

Awesome news wewt :D Tho at times I kinda wish they just kept Fudge for DH, I think his death would of made more of an impact seeing that Scrimagour was cut from HBP, but anyways Yay! :D

Those are great news :D I'm sure he'll be fabulous ^^

sweet I can totally see him playing Rufus Scrimgeour, and playing a vampire again to, cool!!!:D
