We have just heard the news from an inside source (who we cannot reveal) that Johnny will be in the upcoming Harry Potter movie “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” (2010) – a series his daughter is fan of.
He signed contracts with Warner Bros. in early March when he still was in L.A.
Johnny is set to play Gellert Grindelwald, a dark wizard, once a friend but later dueling Albus Dumbledore, said to be the greatest duel ever fought between wizards, and then put into prison. He shall appear in flashbacks through different ages (but I’m sure, they’ll take another actor for the earliest ages).
Johnny will be the first non-british actor in the Harry Potter series and it’ll be the 4th collaboration with Helena Bonham-Carter.
