Sean Biggerstaff to have a small role in 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows'


The List's Paul Dale spoke with actor Sean Biggerstaff at last month's Glasgow Film Festival. Sean talked about his very small role in the last Harry Potter film. I'm not sure if he means part 1 or part 2 of Deathly Hallows, but it's probably part 2.

I did manage to get a chat with the lovely actor Sean Biggerstaff, best known for his role in the Harry Potter films, sex comedy Cashback and superb television film Consenting Adults. Biggerstaff told me he’s got a blink-and-you'll-miss-it part in the last Harry Potter and a load of other stuff going on but for some reason we started talking about theatre.

Biggerstaff, a very fine actor raised on the stage, said he has not been offered anything decent on stage for a long time and that all he got offered were crazy experimental roles which really wasn’t his bag. So on his behalf, I just want to say: ‘Come on you Scottish thespian dic(k)tators in your publicly-funded ivory towers - there’s real gold in them Glaswegian hills, and his name is a curious amalgam of a drab South Lanarkshire town and a stick to assist walking.

  1. so then you'd say this one was much closer to the books? I have been greatly disappointed with the last two movies, mainly the adding of the weasley house burning down in Half-blood prince.
