Nonetheless, I Am

In the midst of the HP-hysteria, I can offer only this: Latest Movie Casting for HBP.

Um, just who might they be playing?

I'm going to guess Narcissa and Voldy's father.

But I thought JKR is adamant that they used only British actors for the movies. Naomi Watts is Australian.

Then again, there is a HP theme park now; crazier, money-infused things have happened.

Whoops, me bad. Naomi Watts is British, she just started in Australia.

ST might be playing Gaunt, as the others have suggested here. Such a waste of those jaws, I suppose.

And I checked! He's Irish so he's near UK, I suppose. I wonder what's up with the non-Brits inclusion all of a sudden.

Gaunts and Tom Riddle? (I can guess which one would play Riddle...)

But will Ralph Fiennes then play the younger!Voldy? Sibling switch, I see...

Disclaimer: I haven't read HBP since the last time it came out so I might be wrong.

I figure Naomi would be Narcissa Malfoy, no clue about the others. Joseph probably Tom Riddle, Sr...since, y'know, he's RELATED to Ralph. No clue about Stuart Townsend, though...a Gaunt, maybe.

I'm having a brain fart at the moment; what is a Gaunt? The last time I read HBP was when it came out in way back then.

[infinitegraces]

The Gaunts are Voldemort's Mother and her family before he was born. Merope was his mother, Marvolo his grandfather, and Morfin his uncle.

Thank YOU! For a moment there I thought the Gaunts were the poor man's Deatheaters. Or inspirations?

I need sugar.
