Blaise Zabini: Wentworth Miller. For everyone asking, 'who?' I'll lay it out rather simply, starred in The Human Stain with Nicole Kidman and Anthony Hopkins. Will be soon seen in Prison Break on FOX. With a shaved head. And tattoos. And shirtless. Think a network version of Oz. Born in the UK. Graduated from Princeton. Is of African-American, Jamaican, English, German, French, Dutch, Syrian and Lebanese descents, because not all black people look the same. Did I mention he's like really fucking hot.

Gemma Blavatsky Zabini: Thandie Newton. The consummate black widow herself. Yeah, quite the joke, no? She's hot. And has been married seven times, in case you didn't catch that part. Hell, I'd marry her too!

Angelina: Johnson: Marsha Thomason. Blaise's half sister. She goes by her father's surname and was raised by her father's mother. Doesn't like Blaise. Doesn't like her mum. Tends not to associate with Blaise if at all possible. Angelina's father, Victor Johnson (Idris Elba (The Wire, Ultraviolet)), was Gemma's third husband.

-- All other HP casting is available here --


+ A little light reading, or why I wanted to cast Wentworth instead of someone else, like David Oyelowo (Danny, Spooks/MI-5).

+ I know Blaise needs a father. Ideas, children? My brain is fried. I have to go think about my dearest Neville, who saw no action, and possibly Draco crying in the bathroom and how Myrtle is going to play matchmaker. What? You know I smoke crack.

++ I believe that ethrosdemon will be doing the exact opposite casting for the women, i.e. Marsha as Gemma and Thandie as Angelina, but I must differ, cos dude, Thandie Newton. *swoon*

And while I'm making casting announcements, I should also point out that Emilia Fox has been cast as Pansy Parkinson. I think. That one's a bit questionable.

Adrian Lester as his dad all the way, baby. Smooth, smooth, utterly fucking smooth and gorgeous as fuck. Not agreeing on the Wentworth boy, mostly because he's described by Harry as black, and at first glance you wouldn't think the Wentworth boy was, though Thandie Newton is perfect. She's who popped into my head straightaway in the book. Now that I think about it, I wouldn't mind Tiger Woods as Blaise, though the only problem is that he doesn't really look like your average Jamaican descent boy does. (your other options for black British tend to be Kenyan or Nigerian (with smatterings of Zimbabwe or South Africa), who tend to have quite high cheekbones, which would be perfect for Blaise)

And also sat there through the description of Bella and went... 'damn, woman, you're reading off hackthis' casting, aren't you?'
