Producers Casting Victor Krum For 'Harry Potter 4'

In the book, Krum is the 17-year-old captain of the Bulgarian Quidditch team and also plays the love interest for Harry Potter's school friend Hermione Grainger.

The character has bushy eyebrows, a crooked nose and walks with a slouch. But the less than flattering appearance of the character has not deterred thousand of Bulgarian teenagers from applying for the auditions.

The first casting will take place in the capital Sofia later this week. Other castings are set to take place around the country with the best choices then flown to London to meet the producers where the final selection will be made.
