Yayyyyy!!! The Dursleys are back!!! I really have a gut feeling that this isn't really going to be the best film so far, I think Goblet of Fire is. But this will be fantastic!!

Good. I am so glad that they are putting the Dursleys back in the movie. It would not have made any sense to people who haven't read the book if they didn't. I hope that these people they have picked do a good job. I wish them luck and all the best!

Hmmm, whenever I hear about new actors being cast I feel disappointed, because I'm not in it! Good luck to them, anyway.

Hmm...

I can't find any pictures of Susie Shinner. Oh well, I'm sure she'll be appropriate enough. The casting people have done really well in the past - I'm so happy!

Not really how I pictured Amelia Bones [I always thought she'd be a large woman for some reason] but I'm so glad they tell us :D

I'm glad that the dursley's will be returning. it was sad (yet understandable) that they missed out in the fourth movie.

Sweet. Glad to hear the updates. Casting in these films has always been great so I am sure they will continue on that path. Glad to see the Dursleys made the cut. I still think it was awful they were not given more focus in GOF because I think there is some important stuff that was missing. Alas. What can be done?

Mrs. Phineas Nigellus says:

Hmmm, I always thought of Amelia Bones as a bit...er..more plump, to be kind. I guess Sian Thomas will be "just okay" as long as they die her hair. I just can't imagine Amelia Bones being skinny and blonde!

As far as the other cast goes, the only person I really care about is the one who plays Piers Polkiss. If they can make Ralph Fiennes look like a snake, they can surely turn Jason Boyd into a rat, right?
