Exciting!! I'm amazed that they're keeping all these characters in, even though they might not be "essential to the plot." Can't wait to see some pictures of them all!

IMDB says Richard Leaf has already been in a film called The Order...that's good casting, right?
Congrats to all who have been cast, I know you all will do a fantastic job!

More casting news, yes! I love it all :) Im so very glad the Dursleys will be back in this movie. It was a bit strange not having them in GoF. I cant wait for even more news and more pictures of the newly cast actors and actresses (Sian Thomas does look perfect for her part).

I think its great they are having all of these characters but like most of you said about sirus black i just wish that they would have an offical statement right now as to if he will be in it or not. they seem to be keeping alot of stuff in this movie. cant wait to see how it is played out. i hope it winds up being a 3 hour movie cause cutting it down will take away alot of what most of these characters do. im glad dudley is going to be back in this and i cant wait to see him be attacked by dementors. i thought they would have cut out his so called gang since they can film stuff without that part in it. maybe that might be taken out last minute and will be a dvd deleted scene. also doesnt dudleys stuff happen near the park or something im just wondering if they will use the same little park they used in PoA.

I'm wicked glad that the Dursleys are back and that the whole dementor incedent on Privet Dr. will be included. I think I read somewhere that Gary Oldman's still in negotiations to return as Sirius...let's hope they resolve whatever differences they may have soon!

Ah, it's nice to see them cast like almost every character from the book. It might just look like they'll show the entire movie this time...
Great
otherwise, we might get a ton of deleted scenes or even maybe (very maybe) a special extended or director's cut edition, I'd loove that

Great! With the characters' roles that have just been cast it appears that OotP film will follow the book a bit more closer than GOF did.

Great! Glad to seee the Dursleys back! I guess Sian Thomas might be alright for the role of Amelia Bones but I always imagined her a little different.

This is making me so excited. I'm glad that they have started filming,. It makes me feel that there is less of a wait then there actually is. What I really want them to do is just the contract to Gary Oldman so they can confirm him as Sirius.

I don't know these actors, but I hope they will be good, Nice to see that they are makiing progress with the film:-)
I doon't really think the guy who should play James looked anything like him, but I suppose some make-up will help...
I am glad the Dursley will join the next film!!!
