A Girl Can Dream

[meddow]

I may have lost my marbles just a little bit, but there just happens to be a rumour floating around the net that Jack Davenport, along with Naomi Watts and Stephen Rea (yay, I adore Stephen Rea, he would make such an awesome Scrimgeour) are in negotiations for HBP. And since as you all probably know, I'm a bit of a fan of Jack Davenport, I like this rumour a lot. But it does beg the question who could be possibly play? There's Slughorn (too young, too thin, too much hair), Bill Weasley (not enough ginger & too old), Rufus Scrimgeour (too young), Fenrir Greyback (too young) Marvolo Gaunt (too young, again), Morfin Gaunt (far too hot) and finally Tom Riddle Snr, which actually would work, but it would be all of five seconds of screen time.

But, just but, there is the shadow of a possible another character.





Okay, it maybe a bit long shot and maybe it's just the very similar hair and we don't even know if RAB would turn up in the final book, never mind the sixth movie, but it could work. And with DH to be released before the HBP movie, it could be possible to have storylines spilling from one to the other.

I'd agree, Greyback is one of the more likely candidates, especially since they will probably cut out the Remus backstory like they always do and the age really won't matter. I dunno, I just don't see a JackDav character munching down on Bill Weasley since he always has a civilized air to him.

But maybe he's going for a different role in which he does lose that civilized air completely. Be wonderful to see him do it if he does.

I totally agree about the civilised thing (whitewigposhvoice = sex) but having seen him in Dead Man's Chest, plus the best ever Miss Marpe, where he was playing a cockney detective, kind of convinces me he's versatile.

Some people have suggested the Muggle Prime Minister, which would make sense, though it would be rather disappointing. I'm holding out for greyback, to be honest...
