In this episode, we discuss which actors should reprise their roles in the new Harry Potter TV show. Enjoy!

Topics/Summary:

· Listen to episode 287, “Tom Felton is returning to Broadway. Who should return to the TV show?” Here!

· 4:10 Jason Isaacs as Lucius Malfoy. He was the perfect blend of haughty, rude, and fearful. He portrayed a fantastic arc, and really showed us what it means to be afraid. Without a doubt, he would be a great addition.

· 10:21 Alan Rickman as Snape. He shouldn’t return. His performance was too perfect. There are no changes I can think to make to it, and so I don’t think Alan Rickman should change that. Getting another actor puts a stopper in the bottle of his performance and really immortalizes it.

· 18:25 Matthew Lewis as Neville Longbottom. This is an interesting case, because there’s no chance for him to return as Neville, but there are other possibilities. Perhaps, he can be a herbology professor who watches over himself in a way, and sees just how much he grows.

· 24:41 Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix Lestrange. I don’t think she should return, because she absolutely crushed it. We should get some new blood in there to preserve the performance.

· 27:00 Jude Law as Dumbledore. I know, he doesn’t really count, but the Fantastic Beasts Dumbledore is pretty close to the same time as some of the flashbacks we got in the films. It would be super cool if Jude Law played the younger version of him. It would put in a natural separation that Dumbledore himself wants between who he was, and who he wants to be.
