cool!!!! 1st?!?!!
FIRSTTT? suhweeettt about greyback :]
I'm glad Greyback didn't get cut. I hope this actor does justice to the role.
They finally announced Greyback (^-^)
Well WB didn't announce him. But The Snitch found out. I really want to know who's playing Alecto Carrow!
YESSSSS THEY FINALLY ANNOUNCED GREYBACK!!!!!!! 5th?
uuuu 4!! im on a roll todayy fernir is kinda cute
Wow... he looks good! : )
Wow, I wasn't expecting more casting news for this movie! I'm glad they're keeping them, since they play a bigger role in book 7. I wonder if this was the last casting news for Half Blood Prince. I was really hoping for the Gaunts to be in it.
I was expecting something a bit older and gruffier, but oh well I've given up debating movie accuracy.
Yes, they didn't cut Fenrir! Wh00t! Never been so happy to hear movie news.
awesome! hopefully this isnt the last of the casting announcements!
are going to get an alecto carrow though?
Yes!! They're great additions to the cast! I'm so glad Fenrir wasn't cut!
YAY! 14 :D I was thinking they would find some way to cut Fenrir out. But yay, he's in! So are Amycus Carrow, I really hope they cast an Alecto too :D
SWEET!! I hope that this peeps do a great job! I can't wait to see how Greyback turns out!!! I hope it is freakish yet exciting!!!! I also hope that Alecto gets cast!
cool! im glad they werent cut! wheres mugglecast?
OOOO! I hope they're good. Good thing they weren't cut from the screenplay. And I hope MuggleCast is released tomorrow. Although I'm mad because my iPod won't turn on since yesterday evening. I don't know why.
i am soo glad that they left him in, along with Amycus, with the same logis, are they gonna cast Alecto?
great! :)
i thought he was going to be a lot older too! although i won't deny this guy is pretty darn hot lol
awesome. it's great to see some more people being cast.
AWESOME! but wait... wheres mugglecast?!
Yay! It's about time they cased someone. I was getting nervous they wouldn't.
oooo...thats exciting, im so glad to see more of the cast!
this isnt funny! wheres mugglecast???
Cool. I hope they make Greyback actually frightening. They shouldn't care about upsetting little kids anymore! Voldemort could be a lot scarier if they tried. Ralph Ineson has to have one of the most well-known voices on British television. He's been in loads of things but probably best known for appearing in around 3 or 4 scenes of The Office!
OMG that picture looks just like my old choir Teacher (he is a broadway actor and loves HP)
great choices! but Amycus looks a bit too nice. I picture him as being really stupid looking, not comical.
I am sooo happy that he wasn't cut. I cant wait to see his makeup and what they do to him. *does the happy dance*
We get Greyback but no more WEASLEYS?!
I think Dave will be a great Greyback! He can easy get that scary, a bit disgusting look.. =P
That's strange... why include Greyback if they skip Bill? That doesn't really make sense... Well, I hope they have some clue at what they are doing.
morning peoples!!!!
becky becky! hello hello =] =]
ugh i cant stay i g2g byee
cool cool, i think the fenrir greyback actor will look the part as long as they put costume makeup on him (fur, etc.). i always imagined amycus carrow as a bit larger, but i think he'll work as well....
bye kayla!! sorry i missed you!!! :-(
Im sorry I missed you too!
Yay! Finally there is more news popping up now! It was just so dull during the dry spell! Now there is a new movie and casting announcements are sooo exciting! = D ~Myrtle~
On IMdb it says in Dave Legeno's bio that he is "A former bouncer, debt collector and wrestler, he is now a Cage fighter when not acting." Sounds and looks like a good pick for Greyback. Not sure about Ralph Ineson as Amycus - Not familiar with his previous work but he is said to be 6'3" ...
The movie comes out in seven months, and they're still casting? Seems odd.
NIIIIICE..........
wow he looks good. hope he is good. he does look scary. lol. cool!
Hey hey cheesecakes anyone home??
Oh gosh they are PERFECT! Absolutely loveee.
for some reason I always saw Daniel Day-Lewis playing Greyback.... i dont know why, but thats how i imagined him....but the guy they picked looks pretty good!
I agree that this guy's way too cute! I personally pictured Bill Nighy as Fenrir. Maybe they'll CGI the face like they did for Voldemort and he'll be unrecognizable anyway! I really am bummed about no Bill & Fleur. Since the wedding is important in book 7, they should at least "mention" it. Don't you think?
Agree - Fenrir's to young. Was hoping for someone older like Tim Dalton to take the role.
OOOOOO he's gonna be good as Fenrir! He has the face for a werewolf!
