HBO confirmed in 2023 that JK Rowling’s book fits a small screen, and an open casting call was announced in September.
Since then, it has been rumoured that John Lithgow has fallen into a “last lecture” to play Albus Dumbledore, but like Sirius Black actors Gary Oldman, Jude Law and Peter Everett The name was thrown into the mix.
Some fans even hope to play Stephen as his beloved principal, but the 67-year-old teased him with another role in mind.
When asked by Metro if he was going to appear in upcoming series and if he had already been approached, he told us: “Well, I definitely think about it Please! I’ll think about anything interesting.
“No, as far as I know, I haven’t gone. Make sure my agent knows they’re running past it.”
He continued: “I was reading that John Lithgow was going to play Dumbledore. I worked with him, he is a great actor and absolutely amazing. He is a small (Dumbledore’s) It is mostly made for glasses.
“So I don’t know who’s going to play. I’m all too old with those words, right?” he laughed.
“Maybe I can be a minister of magic, or is it something like that? Cornelius Fudge…for everything I know they’ve already cast him.
Then he joked: “They do seven episodes in each book, isn’t that so? So 49 episodes – it’s a big series… Or I could be a fat woman in portraits !”
