| | | Fiona Weir talks 'Order of the Phoenix' casting CBBC Newsround spoke to Fiona Weir, casting director for ' Order of the Phoenix', about the Luna Lovegood casting call set for tommorow and how casting was progressing for the fifth Potter film. Quote: Lizo: Now you, of course, did the Cho Chang auditions for the last film. What was it like, did you manage to spot Katie Leung early? Was there something about her? Fiona Weir: There was. That was a fantastic experience because we had around 3,000 girls turned up for that, which was wonderful. And Katie was very particular, and yes she had something about her which just made me think that I should pay attention. Lizo: Now with this film Order of the Phoenix, how urgently do you need a Luna? Fiona Weir: Well, we start filming in February, so we haven't got that much time, but we've got enough time to find the right girl. Lizo: And what's happening with some of the other roles. You must have filled them by now. You can tell us what's going on. Fiona Weir: Yes, we'll we've got lots of wonderful new characters in the new film, and we've got some fabulous actors playing them. But I'm not going to tell you who they are. Lizo: Oh go on, just a Tonks or a Shacklebolt... What are they like? Fiona Weir: No, I'm sure you'll be one of the first to hear. But not just yet.

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

I really really ... I mean really look forward to this movie ... I mean the fifth book was so exciting ... and funny . I would like to know who's playing that woman who looked like toad ... Unfortunately I don't remember her name ...  And I would like to see the part when Fred and George organize that fireworks and then fly away  I think it was the funniest and best in that book ! |

Some online article said that Ralph Fiennes would come to the production around September 2006 to shoot his Voldemort scenes for OOTP. At the very least they'll be done shooting by the Thanksgving and Christmas holidays.

I hope they can make this movie a little more exciting than the book, I thought it was prolly the dullest book of the series, I cant wait for HBP though, that will be great!

Hogwarts RPG Name: Tonksamelia (Tonks) for short. Third | I hope they pick Fiona Weir she's perfect for the role of Tonks. I'm crossing my fingers.
