it does not necessarily mean that he was one of the finalists, or so i gather.

oh! is that a unibrow i spy?

ok oush, that was mean.

nah, he looks too old, and he just doesn't seem to have any "krum" in him!!

he cant be krum he looks nothing like him

He's too old to be Viktor.

OMG i hope its not him.. i want to marry krum..!! that guy is not floating my boat.. lol

Victor Bozhinov, who headed up the panel of judges for the Sofia auditions for Viktor Krum, has expressed his delight that producers in London have picked a native Bulgarian for the part. Until the last minute it was not certain whether a Bulgarian would get the role.

Until the last moment, British casting directors hesitated whether the part should go to the London-living teenager, or to one of two other Krum wannabes.
He also reiterated the fact that Warner Brothers has not released any names or pictures regarding the casting of Krum.

we NEED to see a pic of him the moment it is released! i hope he's alright

I'm not really to egar to see krum but I really want to see who is playing cho and Cedric.

they better get sum1 hott to play cedric

yeh ,cuz hes supposed to be really good looking...... i think it sucks that oliver wood isnt in it anymore.. he was quite cute

i read on Godrics Hollow (another HP site) that they HAVENT picked krum yet

Many sites have been reporting that the part of Viktor Krum has been cast. CBBC has reported that they spoke with Warner Bros. and they have confirmed that the role of Viktor Krum has NOT been cast as yet!

thats wat it said

yeah i read that somewhere. he hasn't been cast.

well mugglenet said he was... then 2 days ago WB announced the rumors were false sorry guys... but they are down to 3 two of them live in london and 1 from bulgaria... nd the cho auditions are down to 8... sorry bout the krum thing.. but they should have him soon.....

anyone found out news about krum yet???? im sure pix should b released by now

no not yet. idk krum annoys me

Krum has been cast too - here's the info from CBBC:

Potter casting directors have found the lad who will play Bulgarian Quidditch star Viktor Krum in Goblet Of Fire, according to reports.
A Bulgarian news agency says the lucky boy is indeed a Bulgarian, but he lives in London with his parents.

It said he was not among the hundreds of boys who queued up in the Bulgarian capital Sofia to audition for the part.

The report claims two boys from this audition were on the shortlist, but the London-based lad landed the role.

Forty six audition tapes from the Sofia casting were sent to film-makers in London, the report said.

"It was a tough choice because they were impressed by many of the Bulgarian candidates," said the man who organised the Sofia auditions.

The identity of the lucky lad has not been revealed.

Krum has an important role in GOF.

As well as being the star pupil at his school, he is Hermione Granger's love interest.

Shooting for the film, directed by Mike Newell, is set to start between April and June, and should be released at the end of 2005.

They already did the auditions for Cho Chang and for Padma & Pavarti as well. Here are the articles concerning Cho:

hey RPhoe do they have pictures of all the castees?

i wanna kno whos playing fluer delacour

No way will he be KRUM! He is too old for Emma! (I think Emma's gonna freak-out when she sees this!) Hehehe..lol

Even if Krum's already picked or not, all I wish is He's Good-Looking.. For Hermione's Sake!!! Hehehehe

noway he's krum, he's 2 ugly

lol

Well, if he is going out with Hermione, he should be at least good-looking.

There was a rumour that Kate Winslet would be playing Fluer Delacour.

have you guys even read the books?? krum's supposed to be absolutely unattractive and come to life on the quidditch field. when he's not on a broom he just kind of hunches around looking surly.

also, if you'll remember, krum's like three years older than hermione.

i saw this one....sorry i couldn't find a pic....would anybody be able to find one?

++++++++++++++++

After announcing last week that it was suspected that a boy from Scotland would get the role, it turns out that a Bulgarian boy will be Krum after all. Warner Bros. has reportedly decided that Stanislav Yanevski, a Bulgarian boy living and studying in London, will play Viktor Krum.

for the full story: http://www.wizardnews.com/story.200406032.html

As for Fleur Delacour, somebody's already been cast. i believe she already has a thread? A French girl named Clemence Poesy

EEEEEWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!! he looks older than 17!!!!!

u seen a pic already??!?!?!? could u tell me where i could see it?

it was the pic at the beginning of the thread. besides, no pics have been released yet of the choosen actor.

anyway, i am not exactly looking for a gorgeous or attractive Viktor Krum. After all, the book did not exactly describe him as such. I would prefer he has PRESENCE and CHARISMA, especially when he is on his broomstick and does the Feint! woo-hoo! ( i think the thing that comes to mind when Krum's face is conjured is his NOSE...wonder if the acor picked will live up to that? lolz)

Bulgarian boy does take up the role of Viktor Krum in the fourth blockbuster Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

The teen Stanislav Yanevski, living and studying in London, has turned out to be the favorite choice of director Michael Newell.

After months of silence and controversial information around the nationality of the future-to-be Potter star, Warner Bros announced their decision to producer Victor Bozhinov late on Thursday.

Bozhinov was in charge of carrying out the Sofia casting at the end of February in search for the best Bulgarian teen boy to play the leading role of Potter's quidditich team head.

The Warner Bros' London-based office has remained silent over further details around Bulgarian Potter-star Stanislav Yanevski.

Casting producer Victor Bozhinov reminded that the idea of selecting a Bulgarian to play Viktor Krum was inspired by the Bulgarian background of the quidditich player in JK Rowling's book.

On Saturday, Harry Potter fans dispose of the unique opportunity to gather in Sofia and get acquainted with the latest Potter game. Event organizers told Novinite.com that more than 800 participants are already on the list.

uh-huh...lol.

Whatever thats not him! Thats a guy that was going out for the part! OMG who showed u that???? Welll their wrong i can tell you that, if you go to google.com and serch Pictures of Viktor Krum the first one has some of some kids trying out for the part and there he is the same picture. SO THATS NOT HIM!

Well, the picture is of a Bulgarian boy and is made in Sofia (you can see the monument behind him), but he won't play Victor Krum for sure. The main reason for this is that he is called Arthur Kirkorian (form the armenian minority) and is not an actor, but a mathematician - part of the Bulgarian national team for the IMO (Internation Mathematics Olympiad). Probably the picture isn't even from the casting...
As a conclusiuon - nice mystification.

Hes WAY To OLD!!!!!!!

thats a funny picture.. and thats not him!! well i hope not
