Wow, interesting. I could see Dave Legeno as Greyback with crazy hair and scars etc. It's hard to picture the death eaters, so I'm happy as long as they're evil!

Dave Legeno seems too good-looking to play Fenrir. I pictured someone more haggared-looking. Someone once suggested Mick Jagger for the part. I can picture Mick, but I can also see Dave as well. Guess we'll just have to see.

It was very hard for me to picture Greyback and the other Death Eaters as well. Dave looks like he could play him. He looks dangerous in the photo. =D However, I do not remember Jo describing him as handsome.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for late-late announcements or "surprise" casting for:
Rufus Scrimgeour [please do this]
the Gaunts [i will me mad if you don't]
Hepzibah Smith [unlikely]
Madam Rosmerta [Ron fancies her!]
Dobby [waaah.... I want Dobby back... waah]
the Muggle PM [this would have been so cool]
those that probably won't make it:
Tom Riddle Sr [idea!=cast Christian Coulson!]
Mundungus Fletcher [Hugh Laurie should be pwning this role]
Hokey [what? after cutting Dobby & almost kicking Kreacher]
Mr. Borgin [no can do]
Wilkie Twycross [just as likely as Prof. Tofty / Marchbanks]
Buckbeak [i miss him]
Bill Weasley [due to recent Fleur news]
Pomona Sprout [sorry, Miriam]
Those who won't make it even to an extended super mega ultra ultimate collectors edition HD-DVD:
Prof. Binns [where has Nearly Headless Nick gone?]
Peeves [WB people were too lame for him]
Charlie Weasley [not really around]
Pigwidgeon [at this rate, Hedwig won't die!]
PygmyPuffs [first give Ginny ten minutes, eh?]
Mourn my friends, mourn!

Interesting. I think Dave Legeno looks the part to be a werewolf, but I will hold my excitement over new casting until it is confirmed by Warner Bros.

I would like to greet Bonnie a happy birthday through here. You guys should took time greeting her here, having a larger role in the next film. I cannot believe you haven't. You and VTM and MN, only TLC are gracious to do that.
I love TLC!

He looks TOTALLY like the Fenrir Greyback, I reckon he'll be allright for the part.
I'm glad that they're actually including Greyback because I thought they might take him out. But it's so good that they're not.
I'm really looking forward to seeing him.
CAN'T WAIT FOR HALF-BLOOD PRINCE!! XD
SQUEEE!!

Legeno seems fine to portray Greyback, probably with a good deal of make-up an accessories. I'm glad they consider including such characters, though I can't understand the point of dismissing Fleur or Lucius. I'm also curious to know who will appear as Hepzibah, the Gaunts, etc. (some of them have to appear, to keep the storyline coherent in essential).

I see Dave Legeno as Fenrir Greyback after having all the make up but I can't see Ralph Ineson playing Amycus Carrow.

I think he is perfect for the role of Fenir Greyback and I can imagine him with scars and the wolf like face *horror*
Hope they had also provided the pic of Ralph Ineson

I can't quite see him as Fenrir at the moment, but I'm sure when he's in full costume and makeup he'll be good. The casting directors haven't made any mistakes yet after all!

Coolness! You know, I've never seen him before but Dave Legeno isn't so bad looking. but I guess with a little makeup he will be a hideous and disgusting werewolf.
