Christoper Lee In Still Talks For Dumbledore?

[Monday, January 20th, 2003]
Although it looked like Michael Gambon had landed the job for taking over as Professor Dumbledore in Harry Potter 3, Christopher Lee is now hinting on his offical website that he could still be up for the role.

While the press say that he has ruled himself out of the bidding to play Professor Dumbledore in the Harry Potter films - or lost out to his Two Towers co-star Sir Ian McKellen or Michael Gambon - Mr Lee himself says that he never speaks about future projects.

"I am not saying I am doing it. I am not saying I am not" he says teasingly. I am superstitious and I never talk about future projects until they are signed and sealed." His name is associated at this time with other 4 or 5 big projects, all of which he won't talk about.

Warner Bros. have yet to officially confirm who will take over the role from the late Richard Harris.
