Here is an interesting point, which I have not found discussed anywhere. Is there any particular link between Kenneth Branagh, Emma Thompson and Helena Bonham Carter such they should all appear in the HP series?
I have been a fan of all three for some time, and they have all appeared in movies together (Howard's End, Mary Shelly's Frankenstein, Dead Again, Theory of Flight, Henry V just to name a few). I know that Branagh and Thompson were married for several years, yet they still appear in similar films together. Is there any other link that would have them appear in various HP books other than that they are all gifted British actors? |

Hmmm...that's pretty interesting. Isn't the woman who plays Ron's mom the same person that plays Ben's boss(or something of the sort) in Driving Lessons?

England is a very small country so when an English film is made and they use British actors you are going to find that all the actors have acted with one another many times. |

Yup, Baty's right. Michael Gambon and Maggie Smith have plays numerous roles together in films before they were cast together in HP. Same goes with Alan Rickman, Emma Thompson etc.
