Awwwww he’s so cute!!! lol, and yeah all they need is Johnny Depp to star in HP and you’ve got pretty much the whole cast of Sweeney Todd right there. LMAO.

But I’m curious to see what he’ll look like as Caius, the volturi were the only good thing in the Twilight series. Honestly.

LOL Actually, with his hair, he seems to fit my imagination of what Grindelwald would have looked like when he was young!

Is that Bonnie Wright standing behind Bower near the end of the video interview? It looks like her.

I wonder what the scenes were in which he actually appeared! I am looking forward greatly to seeing how the film handles all of the backstory and whether it will incorporate any homoerotic allusions between the two characters that mainly comprise it. I hope he did a fantastic job depicting the character.

Well, he certainly looks like someone you could fall for (as in Dumbledore could) but somehow I imagined him more… erm… wild if that makes any sense. He looks too much like a well-nurtured, good kid. We’ll see how he’ll do

He looks like a 10-year old boy. I still cant see him as Grindlewald, but its awesome that he’s already filmed some of his scenes! I wonder which one?

But it’s hilarious that pretty much the whole cast of Sweeney Todd is in the Potter films. lol.
