In an interview promoting his role as Davey Jones in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, British actor Bill Nighy expressed interest in taking up a role in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince after previously working with the film's alleged director on several occasions:
The actor says that when his friend David Yates, who had cast Nighy in the TV movies "The Girl in the Cafe" and "The Young Visiters" and the British series "State of Play," was named director of "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" (due out this summer), his heart leapt. "I joked with him that maybe now I wouldn't be the only actor in England who hadn't been in 'Harry Potter.' " And yet, he says, with a tone of mock heartbreak, "nobody called."

It may not be too late. "And now, apparently, he's doing the next one as well," Nighy says. "Somebody's got to talk to him"...

The editorialist, Michael O'Sullivan, continued:

Mr. Yates, are you listening? If you've started working on "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince," and you still haven't nailed down the casting of Fenrir Greyback, the werewolf, I've got just the man for the job. He doesn't need the work, but we could all use another one of his nutty experiences.

Please treat O'Sullivan's "request" as pure speculation. Nighy was never directly quoted, and while his interest in a Harry Potter role is eminent, his pursual to play Greyback is not. Pre-production for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince is slated to begin this fall, and the movie is expected to open in November 2008.
