The characters of Barty Crouch, Igor Karkaroff, Amos Diggory and Barty Crouch Jr. have been confirmed for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The names, printed in a press release from Warner Bros.
, includes the full list of additions to the cast:
Joining the ensemble are several new cast members, led by esteemed actor Brendan Gleeson (Troy, Cold Mountain), who plays Hogwarts' new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher Mad-Eye Moody. Frances De La Tour (The Cherry Orchard, Strike it Rich) plays the Headmistress of Beauxbatons Academy of Magic, Madame Maxime; Roger Lloyd-Pack (Vanity Fair, BBC TV's Only Fools and Horses) plays the Head of the Department of International Magical Cooperation, Barty Crouch; Pedja Bjelac (Eurotrip) plays Durmstrang Professor Igor Karkaroff; Jeff Rawle (Inspector Calls II, Baal, TV's Drop the Dead Donkey) plays Amos Diggory; and David Tennant (Bright Young Things) plays Barty Crouch Jr.
We previously posted that Fleur Delacour, Victor Krum, Cho Chang and Cedric Diggory had been cast. They are all listed in the new release, but still no word on who will be playing Lord Voldemort.
Update: Check out The Leaky Cauldron for some photos of the new additions HERE.
Thanks to Veritaserum for the tip.

Sounds like they are really coming along with this movie. I really wish Alfonso Cauron (sp?) would direct it. He did a way better job that Chris Columbus, and is just a much better director. Hopefully this third director won't let us down!

I'm really pleased about the casting, although Roger Lyod Pack is not how I imagined Barty Crouch.

Cool, the momentum for GoF builds. Who plays Voldemort is going to be interesting, although I guess he's not that human-like anyway...

Has anyone else noticed that they have not announced the actors to play Rita Skeeter and Ludo Bagman? I hope they have not been omitted from the script! If so, Warner Bros., I will add myself to the list of diehards who plan not to give you money for simply butchering the novel for the sake of it in the visual medium. I expect this film to capture the two main substances of the book: the spirit of the Triwizard Tournament, socializing with the other schools; as well as the hidden plot of the Crouches. My lack of a desire to see the film will increase should I hear from early reviews that the film does not present these in a manner whereby they can do the book justice.
To hear that Amos Diggory will appear is reassuring news though -- hopefully Mike Newell adapts this novel to satisfy all of the fan's interpretations of this installment. I still wish Eric Braeden would have been casted to play Mr. Crouch as well.

Hopefully the new director will bring something fresh to the movie. The cast looks really good. I hope it is more like the first two in a way though, even though the third was great.

Warner Bros alwayz gets the best actors to fo the role of the HP charcters and these actors are really great and I'm postive there gonna do their best in portraying their charcters.Clemence will make a great Fluer once in character and Katie from her pictures I feel like she's already Cho.
I'm sure Brendan Gleeson will never let us down and he'll do the best Mad-Eye ever.
I'm really looking forward for the 4th when its released in November 2005.
I feel its going to be great...

I don't anyone on that list, but I trust they picked good people to play the parts. I mean I think that they did a really good job casting so far in all of the movies. I think that the characters are all pretty much how I pictured them. I mean, there are a few exceptions and everything. But people use their imaginations and think differently.
