Actor Jim McManus
will portray the bit part of Albus Dumbledore's brother Aberforth in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, according
to The Leaky Cauldron.
The unnamed bartender at the Hog's Head in Phoenix (who we later learn is Aberforth) witnesses the inaugural meeting of the student-led Dumbledore's Army there.

I think this seems like a waste to put him in the movie.
I mean if they can put Aberforth in, they could have totally done Ludo Bagman.

I guess if the HPANA said so then it's got to be true right. I mean, since when have we been told lies. *shakes head* Never.

Hmmmm all very intriguing, perhaps Dumby's brother will have a bigger part in the 7th book.
This is slightly off the topic, but, has anyone noticed that on mugglenet, release dates for Phoenixin countries other than the USA have been confirmed by WB?
^o^

I don't remember about Dumbeldore's brother in the OoP, I hope this movie is attached to the book like the GOF.

I am thinking that this guy is quite good, although, i never heard of him! When DD dies in book 6 i think maybe his brother will play quite a big part in #7- he better be good then!
