ok, non è proprio un nuovo film per Hugh, ma il nostro è stato citato come auspicabile interprete per il personaggio di Rufus Scrimgeour per "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince". Questo perchè il personaggio ricorda per certi versi House. altri possibili interpreti, Liam Neeson e Bill Nighy. Probabilmente i più di voi non conoscono il secondo nome, fa parte della folta schiera di atori brit che seguo. Ha un po' di anni in più rispetto a Hugh e Neeson.
Casting Call: 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'
RUFUS SCRIMGEOUR:
Book Says: Minister of Magic. "[He] looked rather like an old lion. There were streaks of grey in his mane of tawny hair and his bushy eyebrows; he had keen yellowish eyes behind a pair of wire-rimmed spectacles and a certain rangy, loping grace even though he walked with a slight limp."
We Say: Internet speculation seems to have focused on Liam Neeson, who would be a fine choice if he could channel some of that Ra's al Ghul magic. But he's a little too demur for our tastes. Scrimgeour has spent a lifetime fighting dark wizards, is arrogant and somewhat bitter. He's forceful and strong. Maybe it's as simple as the fact that he's described as having a "loping grace even though he walked with a slight limp," but, combine everything, and we can't think of anyone who'd be a better fit than HUGH LAURIE.
Alternates: We'd love to find a place for Bill Nighy in the series, and this is probably as close to a perfect match as there is left.
