Wow, she looks like a great Pansy. I bet she's really nice, but she looks mean; perfect for the role.

Well should this turn out to be true, good for her this gives her a role in what is sure to be an enormous hit. But this young lady is a wee bit too pretty to play Pansy, in my opinion. So this will be an interesting role to see played out.
I am anxious to see the film already and we are still many months away!

I thought Pansy was meant to be really ugly? This girl doesn't really resemble her, seeing as she's quite pretty.
And congratulations Prof. Dish ;)

She doesn't look evil, actually she looks really nice. Well, the makeup, and the acting will probably change that look.

So I am taking this to mean they are doing the train scene where Harry gets his nose broken if they are casting Pansy.
She is really pretty. I always pictured Pansy as being pretty, so she fits.
(Good first story Dish!)

She looks ok. I'm sure she would play Pansy well. She doesn't look much like I thought she would from the book but i'm sure she would pull of the role quite well. If she does get the part.

Shes too nice looking to play somebody so mean. And I thought there was already a Pansy in the other movies. Why couldn't they just stick to her? I guess we'll have to wait to find out.

I think she looks perfect for Pansy. Without being rude I'll just say with her face they'll be able to make her look just like Pansy.

How many Pansy's is this movie franchise going to have? If this rumour is true, she'll be the 3rd actress to play Pansy in the movies. I guess the other 2 didn't wanna stick it out till the end...
This girl is far too pretty and pleasant looking to play Pansy. Then again, I just looked at her photo again, and there's something about this girl's eyes that looks slightly menacing, but pretty at the same time... Like on the outside she's saying, "come play with me, I like you, you're nice", but on the inside she's saying, "once I get close to you I'm gonna use the leg binding curse and hang you upside down...".

As far as looks are concerned, I think she would make a perfect Pansy. She has those Slytherin green eyes........

Wasn't this Pansy Parkinson?
Still, this girl seems OK. She reminds me of Lisa from Steps a bit. She could suit the role of Pansy alright, methinks.

She looks PERFECT! She even has the slightly "pug-nosed" look about her that is descibed in the books!
I cannot wait to see her fawning over Draco ... I am so happy that at least Pansy has been cast, as I was getting worried as it seems that so many characters have been chopped.

Yeah she looks the part, I reckon she'd make a great Pansy.
Hope it isn't a rumour, but I so can't wait to see her fawning over Draco.
I hope they have that scene I am so looking forward to it.
Squee!

I don't understand why the casting people feel they need a new Pansy like every movie.
If she were casted, I'm pretty sure she'd be third in a line of Pansy's.
They really need to just stick with one girl, imo.
