Who would you cast in the 5th movie?
Who would you recommend for the new cast members in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix? Remember, they have to be British!
Here are the ideas I've heard (I've looked them all up on The Internet Movie Database to make sure they fit the most basic criteria): Dolores Umbridge- short, plump, nasty, old: Judy Dench- great, but I doubt she'd do it Imelda Staunton- my favorite. She has recently said she's got the part, but Warner Brothers hasn't confirmed it yet. The director says they're talking to her. Pam Ferris (Aunt Marge)- She's been in HP already, but who says she can't play another part? Elizabeth Spriggs (Fat Lady)- same Patricia Routledge Brenda Blethlyn Bellatrix Lestrange- dark, evil, remnants of good looks (lots can be done with makeup): Elizabeth Hurley- too Hollywood Helena Bonham Carter- great, but not likely Helen McCrory- my favorite. She did a great nasty job in Count of Monte Cristo, as Villefort's wife. Catherine Zeta-Jones- too Hollywood Rachel Weisz- not Bellatrix's type. Natascha McElhone Sienna Guillory Kate Beckinsale Chloe Annett Juliet Landau (grew up in London) Luna Lovegood- 14, blond, big eyes, loony: Alakina Mann Tamzin Merchant They're currently holding auditions for schoolgirls in Britain, so it will probably be a newbie. Nymphadora Tonks- 20's, heart-shaped face: Rachel Weisz- she'd be great, but maybe too Hollywood. Kate Winslet- ditto, but she's not quite impish enough IMO Helena Bonham Carter- almost perfect, if a bit old. Keira Knightley- too Hollywood (and too young IMO) Kelly Macdonald Kate Ashfield Anna Friel- she'd be cool. Jane Horrocks- very talented. Sarah-Jane Potts Jodhi May Emily Mortimer Kingsley Shacklebolt- tall, black: Lenny Henry (Shrunken Head)- wants to do it, apparently. Colin Salmon- just about perfect for the part Chiwetel Ejiofor Oris Erhuero Eamonn Walker I haven't heard any ideas. I'm guessing it will be someone we haven't heard of. Young Marauders, Lily, and Snape: I have no ideas, except that Daniel Radcliffe should play James. We don't know if that scene will be in the movie, though there is a rumor that they're doing auditions for Lily... Also, Robbie Coltrane who plays Hagrid might drop out. If so, Mel Smith is the only other actor I can picture as Hagrid. He plays Sir Toby Belch in Twelfth Night and the Albino in Princess Bride. So please tell me your opinions. I'd be glad to hear any new ideas! Last edited by Elanor : 10-26-2005 at 10:39 PM. |
