The fifth Harry Potter was just released and speculationopens in new window is beginning as to who should be cast for Half-Blood Prince which is set to start filming in September.

An article in New York magazine throws up a few names from the British thespian field and I do have to say some choices do make sense:

-- Jim Broadbent as Horace Slughorn
-- Bill Nighy as Rufus Scrimgeour
-- Daniel Day-Lewis as Marvolo Gaunt
-- Kristin Scott Thomas as Narcissa Malfoy
-- Ian McShane as Fenrir Grayback
-- Michael Sheen as the Prime Minister

Of course all those named above are purely the author ideas as to who will play the characters, we don't even know as of now who will or won't be in the movie. Expect some casting news in the coming weeks.
