MINOR HBP SPOILERS

Assuming all the actors must be British, here is my cast for characters in OotP, (assuming these characters are all included):

Dolores Umbridge- Jennifer Saunders
Mundungus Fletcher- Bill Nighy
Bellatrix Lestrange- Liz Hurley
Kingsley Shacklebolt- Colin Salmon
Nymphadora Tonks- Billie Piper

And, influenced a little by EW's article, for HBP (assuming these characters are all included):

Horace Slughorn- Bob Hoskins
Rufus Scrimgeour- Liam Neeson
Fenrir Greyback- Daniel Day-Lewis
Marvolo Gaunt- Bill Nighy (if Mundungus Fletcher doesn't make it into the OotP movie)
Morfin Gaunt- Rhys Ifans
Merope Gaunt- Helena Bonham Carter
Narcissa Malfoy- Kate Beckinsale

That's my 2 cents.

[War Movie Mania]

I am definately looking forward to Ralph Fiennes as Lord Voldemort, but as far as book 5 goes, the casting of Umbridge will probably make or break the movie.

Merope Gaunt- Helena Bonham Carter
I would like to see Helena Bonham Carter play Bellatrix Lestrange.

[Brandon]

I really want to see Angela Lansbury play Umbridge.

Imelda Staunton (Vera Drake) is playing Dolores Umbridge in OotP, Schmoes. The casting has begun...

That's awesome news...I could totally see her playing the role. A complete turnaround from her kindly Vera Drake.

[War Movie Mania]

I can't say that I have ever heard of her before.

She certainly looks the part:

I don't know who they should play, but at some point I'd like to see Sam Neil and Peter O'Toole in one of the movies.

Sam Niel should replace the current actor as Dumbledore. He made a great Merlin, Dumbledore should be a piece of cake! Besides I don't like the new Dumbledore, he sucks compared to the old one.

Michael Gambon (current dumbledore) isn't a bad choice to be dumbledore. He's definitely more mobile, but he was too aggressive in the goblet of fire. Uncharateristic of dumbledore. Sam Neil would be a cool choice, but i dont think he would look the part, even with make up.

[JoeCool]

Johnny Depp as Black
because Oldman just cant pull of that sauve attitude of Sirius

[livsforluv]

I think they would reach an much larger audience if they got someone modern in it, like Jude Law as a new professor or something....

[ElderPredator]

Carmen Electra as Hermione. :D

Over a year on, here are my revised choices...

Horace Slughorn- Tom Baker
Rufus Scrimgeour- Liam Neeson
Fenrir Greyback- Christopher Eccleston
Marvolo Gaunt- Bill Nighy
Morfin Gaunt- Rhys Ifans
Merope Gaunt- Anna Maxwell Martin
Narcissa Malfoy- Joely Richardson

[navarr0]

Few actors i wouldnt mind seeing in the upcoming HP movies, Judi Dench, Rachel Weisz, Ben Kingsley, and maybe Simon Pegg but that last one is a longshot.

[navarr0]

Also maybe he can shave his beard and play a villian.......Christopher Eccleston.

[nickula11]

Oh Day Lewis for the franchise for sure!
I also felt Ewan McGregor would've been good for Lupin.

[darknite125]

Mungdungus Fletcher-Tom Baker
Fenrir Greyback-Ray Park
Random Death Eater-John Simms

[angies]

oh, Ewan McGregor for Lupin would be great! Also agree with Kate Beckinsale for Narcissa. love kate!
