but we still don't have a director

Ack! How exciting...

who will he play? in the movie?

I'm auditioning for the role of Ron Weasley. I know that I'm a female, but I AM red-headed. And I think they'll have to consider replacing Rupert when they see my lovely acting.

AWESOME!

awesome!!! cant wait for the movie! top 5!

very cool.

That's so awesome! And exciting..and.. I'm more excited for Deathly Hallows but oh well.

Thats so cool!!! I can't believe HBP stuff has started already.

how exciting =) yay hbp will be shooting soon enough. awesome.

I won''t be to excited until WB comes out with the set in stone cast list.

I was just thinking about HBP casting earlier and how it has to be soon... lo and behold (just like when i was thinking about the title, release date, and cover art the day they were released. I think i'm psychic-or atleast psycho ; )

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OMG THAT IT SO AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TOP 20?

ok judging by his look i think he tried out for the role of scrimagor (sry for the misspelling) i mean what other person could he try out for there wern't many new characters unless he was someone on the wizengamont (sry again) he does seem to have a bit of lion-ish characteristics ;] idk just a theroy

Wow, I can't wait to see who's cast as Lavender Brown, lol.

Alright, so how do you pronounce that name?

WOAH< I just did a google image search on Eyjolfsson and if that is him, he deffinately isnt nearly hansome enough to be voldemort. young voldy was supposed to be really hansome and stuff, and if i came up with the right guy, he deffinately isnt. I really hope that isnt him, please pick a guy who's good and looks like Tom, movie people!!!!!!!! Plus he looks like he has a major receeding hair line... not that they prob couldnt give him some fake hair, but still.

What about CISSA, though?D: I'm totally looking forward to some casting for Narcissa. We've already got probably the most perfect Lucius anyone could ever ask for, but what about his wife, man?XD SURELY they can't cut her out of THIS one. Unbreakable Vow and all? Unless. Y'know. They find a way to explain that differently.

that comment i left wasnt meant to sound mean, i just dont think he looks like tom. yeah i agree, goodygal, he does seem like he might fit rufus scrimgeor... hmmmmm... maybe i just saw a bad picture of him but idn.?.?

Awesome! I cant wait for The HBP Movie!!

lol! that's so neat, wish i could be in a film..... wonder what he's trying out for....

NO! What about Christian Coulson? He was a good Tom Riddle. Wasn't he? I thought he was...

I find it awesome that all these major plans for Half Blood Prince are already underway, when it feels like just yesterday we got the book! This is my favourite book so far, and I CANNOT wait to see what the producers can do with it! I don't know who this Jon Pall Eyjolfsson person is, but hopefully if chosen he does a superb job.

I agree, he should NOT be tom riddle. They should recast the guy from COS, he seemed to fit the role well, I think.

Sweet!! Now I'm anticipating the 6th movie... xD Ahaha, that's far in the future though (although I'll probably be waiting for it on July 14th ^.^). WB usually does a great job with casting and all that-- I'm sure whoever gets in will be fantastic!!

wow, they are already casting roles.? to bad i live in AMERICA and could never audition, rawr

Oh My Gosh i can't wait for the 6th hp film!!!! i'm so glad Daniel, Rupert and Emma signed for the last films!!!! it wouldn't be the same without them!!! Well i hope that whoever gets the part as young Tom Riddle plays him really well!!!

Despite his small role, Christian Coulson was one of my favourite HP actors. I hope they re-cast him, he was perfect as young Tom Riddle. That other guy looks way to old. I could see him as Morfin. lol

Cool. I hope it's not for the role of Riddle, though, because I thought Christian Coulson did an excellent job in COS

i gooogled him. He is partially bald. i hope he is Lavender Brown. lol im JOKING not about the bald thing ,though

that's awesome and all, but NO PICTURE?!?! i am offended... jk

gagg. NO! =[ I WANNA BE ROMILDA VAN OR LAVENDAR BROWN!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT BE SO AWESOME!

it would be so much fun 2 be in the movies. i would love to meet rupert b/c he is so hot!!!

i wish i could be in one of the movies. it sux that i am american. they already have a Lavender Brown. i saw a pic of her on wikipedia from POA. i don't know if they are going to use her again. i can't wait to find out who will play Romilda Vane.

YES!!!! i completely agree. THat christian coulson guy was PERFECT for tom riddle. looks and everything@!!!!!!!!!!! I hope he comes back. he fit tom sooooooo well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

cool. ice land huh? well he better be decent..because who ever does the casting for the movies...has picked mostly all the wrong actors..for the leading characters at least (the trio). i could care less who does it..i just want it too be good..so far i've never got the same feeling as i get when i read the end of the book when i see the end of any of the movies...nobody has been able to capture the emotion that j.k.r. manages to surprise her audience with.

kool

wait who is he trying out for?

So he's playing the younger version of Tom Riddle- not taking over Christian Coulson's role? Cool!

Sweet that is so woot

Well, I'm definately gonna get Lavendar Brown. I mean really. All she has to do is giggle and snog Rupert. And besides, after playing how many Brits on stage, i bet could get Lav-Lav. *crosses fingers and squeals!!*

I just googled half blood prince and came up that it was rumored that Christian Coulson was gonna be voldemort! I hope that's true. Google "half blood prince" then click the movie title with 2008 after it... look at the cast... it shows Christian Coulson there with (rumored) after his picture. ~MM~

What happened to the guy who played young voldemort in the 2nd movie? he get too old?

ohhh... this is exciting! I'm glad that they're starting work already... but that guy does not look nearly handsome enough to play young Voldemort... maybe he could play him in that last memory or something but that would be a bit weird... having two different Voldemort's in the same movie. I think the guy from COS should come back!!!!

wait what role is he playing......and i saw someone's commenet b4 and that would be sooooooo sweet to be in teh movies!!!

Ahh, that's great :D

I looked him up on Google Images and he certainly can be Tom Riddle, although the really high forehead is questionable. And Riddle is supposed to look really handsome, whereas this guy's average.

wat? lol, secrecy about the script??? ITS A PUBLISHED BOOK.

Well, since we will see Voldemort at several different ages, two or three different actors will probably need to be cast, am I right?

ewwwww i dont like him for it he looks GROSS!
