Post Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows casting
They started filming a few weeks ago and we are now hearing about some casting decisions. Bill Weasley is going to make the film and will be played by Domhnall Gleeson http://www.broadway.com/Tony-Nominee-Do ... ws/5022822
He is Brenden Gleeson's son. He looks the part and it sounds like he can act. The other news is Mundungus Fletcher has been cast as well http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/2009/ ... ly-hallows
Andy Liden will play him and he looks like Dung to me. With Bill cast, I imagine Fleur will return. I also predict we should hear who is playing Xenophillis Lovegood and if Rufus Scrimgeour will be in the film.

He is a great choice and a great actor.

They ought to cast a new Albus Dumbledore. Michael Gambon is worse than Chris Columbus.

It took me a long time to get used to Michael Gambon as Dumbledore because Richard Harris was the perfect Dumbledore. And I hated Michael Gambon in the Goblet of Fire. So out of character, grr.

Not sure if I could deal with Dumbledore being played by a third actor though.

Its too late since to change Dumbledore now. I am actually okay with Gambon, and at the same time the only actor living that could pull the character off is probably Ian Mckellan but he wouldn't do it.

Richard Harris was the Dumbledore. A sad passing.

Rhys Ifans was cast in the film. Wouldn't reveal as who, though. Maybe Luna's father (seems a bit too young for that, though).

Dumby has just one scene (where he walks around in a forest naked with Harry, LOL!).
