Cool. I wonder what role he'll play ...

We're working on finding that out. It's probably just a cameo a la Ian Brown in Prisoner of Azkaban.

He trained as an actor, actually. But I doubt the part requires craft :lol:

That's a really good idea. I hope that's it!

Awesome!! ;)!!

Yeah, I think he'll be tv news presenter or wizard equivalent in the movie.

i think that is a good guess....or as a deatheater cowering in front of Voldy at the boardroom table.

wonder who he'll play???

Sounds cool :) I have no idea who he is, but he's very lucky!

Is there no word on what he will be playing?

So, who's the character?

oooh we might find out in the trailer in like 10 days

Should be interesting...
