HBO's Harry Potter may have found its Albus Dumbledore. No official casting has been confirmed yet for the upcoming adaptation of the Harry Potter books, although the search for the new Harry, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger began with an open casting ...

Dumbledore was played in the first two Harry Potter films – Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets – by Irish Oscar winner Harris. The role was recast after his death in October 2002, with Michael Gambon playing the role for the remainder of the films.

HBO's Harry Potter series has many fan's eyes on it, especially with its casting. But the newest Dumbledore casting proves the movies will be honored.
