He is not so fat like Slughorn but may be with make up, he will be ;) |

Yay! I can really see him as Slughorn, good choice I think! |
Well, he's not fat like slughorn, but I'm sure he will look different in the movie, with the make up and costume. Can't wait for the movie!! |
ZOMG! ZOMG! Emma Riddle, you're my heroe! I've been waiting for so long for confirmation for who would get this role! He's gonna be brilliant! He's got those large eyes! "Talk to me, Horace Slughorn, Tell me all about it!" |
Awesome :D Now all we have to wait for is to know who's playing Riddle :shifty: |

That is going to be so awesome...he is just an awesome actor and he will be perfect!!! |
He has a great expression about him, a twinkle in the eyes that will be great for Slughorn! He just needs to fatten up a bit, but perhaps padding will do! I think this is a great casting decision. |
he is not at all what I pictured Slughorn to look like but once he gets into costume Im sure he will look perfect... |
slughorn rule!! go slugclub=)) |
Wow! I was picturing Bob Hoskins, but I think Broadbent will do a terrific job! Especially if he brings in a little character from Moulin Rouge!!! Also, check out the new Teen Vogue, it shows the potential teenage Voldemort!!! |
He'll be a great Sluggy! |
I think he will be good. |
<small>Awesome! Oh man, I loved Hot Fuzz...and on that note. Loved Shaun of the Dead! Can't wait to see this guy play Slughorn!</small> |

Oh..awsome!! |
He's perfect!! He needs to be fatter for this part though..... EDIT: He's almost perfect!! |
See...now I'l have to see the other movies that he has done. Did you know that he and Tom acted together before? |
That's brilliant, Jim's a fantastic actor. I'm sure he'll make a fantastic Slughorn. He was great in Hot Fuzz!! |
I hope they make him a fatter... I'm not sure that the padding in the costumes is going to be enough :D |
teehee!!! he looks sorta like slughorn!!! and his eyes are all twinkly, just like Slughorn's!!!:P |
HOLY MOLY, AM I EXCITED FOR THIS!!! I never thought about Jim Broadbent before, but now that I think of the roles that he's played and what he is capable of, he seems a perfect fit for Slughorn. I cannot wait to see him in the film!!! |

Well that is pretty awesome! I cant wait to wach HBP...I bet its going to come out so cool id the director from OoTP is doing it!:yes: |
that's awesome! |
That's exciting. I've enjoyed the films he's been in, and since he's actually READ THE BOOKS!!!, I think he'll do a great job! Now all we need to do is wait for word of the Riddles. And of course, girls worldwide will be crying hysterically when the Lavender is announced. :lol: Shannon :hello: |
HBP! HBP! This is going to look insane on screen!! |
I can't wait. I actually love him. He's played Tom Felton's dad! (in the borrowers) and yeah. Hes amazing! |
i cant wait till the film!! |
I think he'll do a great job. He certainly looks the part. I wonder what his hair will look like. For some reason, I always imagined Slughorn with hair like Krusty the Clown from The Simpsons (I don't know how else to explain it <_<) |
I've seen him in two other movies (CoNLWW and Nicholas Nickleby), I can most definitely see him as Horace. if I had to pick an actor for Slughorn he probably would have been on the list. |
He'll be a great sluggy! |
well I don't know he is nor exactly fat, but maybe he'll earn a couple punds fos the movie |
I hope he does a good job! |
Who cares if he's not physically fit... it's the character and the acting that shines through that i think that truly matters... i mean Slughorn is the man that told Voldemort about splitting your sould and whatnot... I imagine him looking a bit like this, just with white or grey hair: http://dorothy32.springnote.com/page...tachments/1157 |
How wonderful. I can see him as Slughorn. I think he'll do a fab job. |
Jim's who I envisioned playing Mr. Weasley way back when. XD It'll be great seeing him as Slughorn. |
WOW, i can't wait for HBP. Jim Broadbent is AMAZING. :woot: |
cool hope he dose good. but the moives he has been in he has done excellent. can't wait to see his performance |
wow. this is going to be a great movie. |
I wonder who he played in Narnia? I recognise his face but I can't quite place it. |
i cant really see him playing Slughorn..but with the wonders of make-up and all...he'd probably fit the part :D |
i cant place him in Moulin Rogue!*smaks forgetful nature*! |

hmm he was bridget jones father! in mopulin rouge he was the guy wtih the red coat who was in charge of the place. TO be honest he isnt what i though for Slughorn but then i thought the same about Umbridge! look forward to seeing him on screen |
Wow! He looks a bit like my old science teacher whom I thought of whenever I thought about slughorn!!! |
I think he'll be a great Slughorn! |
Ummm, I could see him playing Slughorn I guess. Add on a couple of pounds...How tall is he? Hmmm, I'm not as ecstatic over the idea as I thought I would be but yeah. 'Can't waittt. ^_^ |

He is great a good choice |
That's great, he'll make a great Slughorn! yah! the Slug Club!! lol |
well he needs to earn a few more pounds |
:lol: That was slick, David Heyman! That was slick! |
Broadbent isn't a bad choice, but personally I wanted Bob Hoskins. Hoskins can act more grandeur. Plus he was Super Mario lol. |
Ooo, he'll be good! |
Ya he does seem perfect! i cant wait to see it! |
His face is perfect... now he just needs a fat suit, hehe. |
HA! That's so awesome! :D I wonder what that'll be like for Tom seeing Jim again! I wonder if he remembers a lot of filming the borrowers... :hmm: |
he's got great experience!!! |
That's great! I've seen him act, and I'm pretty impressed. He does seem to be a fine choice for Horace Slughorn. |
