Harry Melling recalls screen test for Dudley Dursley in Harry Potter

The Pale Blue Eye is available to stream on Netflix from the 6th January #shorts

[@WiredLain_]

he’s a great actor, hope to see him in more things after pale blue eye.

[@cerberus8462]

He was in old guard good actor

[@AnthonyGarcia-dm5tq]

Great actor in Pale Blue!!! Great actor period!

[@w4ffel]

He was excellent in the Queen's Gambit.

[@ienjoyedmystay5521]

The Ballad of Buster Scruugs

[@astr0cade]

He’s great in The Devil All the Time

[@richarddominic5770]

Honestly he could have played Newt Scamander and I wouldn't have notice.

[@imgvillasrc1608]

I WISH that would've happened. For the memes ofc

[@s.j.p6394]

To whom are you giving these ideas

[@Needsmoreflash]

That would have been awesome. But too many geeks would make theories about the Newt being related to the Dursleys, and next thing you know we have those videos that say "Is Newt Dudley's real dad" 😂

[@annab5369]

He’s so tiny and gentle! What a great actor to portray such a different personality.

[@Mythowars]

Wild too me the people they pick to play the most despicable characters are always the kindest souls. The bullies from the IT movies apparently were the nicest down to earth guys ever. We’re checking after every scene they did with the kids from the losers club

[@annab5369]

@@Mythowars I love how that seems to be a trend! Even still in Harry Potter I love that blooper of Jason Isaacs in full Lucius Malfoy mode when he accidentally hits Dan with his cane and INSTANTLY drops the character, cries “Oh sorry love!” and KISSES HIM ON THE HEAD 🤣❤️ So cute.

[@bradwhite5884]

Damn!! He'd grown quite handsome and fitter then last time, bravo to this guy

[@christianhackl474]

Honestly? Why? Lol, Cause he's not chubby anymore or what? Lmao

[@kingstonshacklebolt1431]

He looks better fat

[@boneymeroney2674]

Seeing how all the kids have grown up and are beautiful and handsome and talented... 🥰

[@himawari.520]

I think out of all HP kids, only he and Rupert and Matthew that I think who can really act but very underrated.. Daniel is awkward and stiff.. Emma is still trying to look camera perfect but using her eyebrows and frown acting a lot (the reasons why she has premature wrinkle since she was still mid 20's).. Tom on the other hands, well.. needs to pick better written scripts..

[@regularhuman4208]

Daniel being stiff and awkward is too true for my first watch of harry potter ​@@himawari.520

[@Redfield982]

@@himawari.520Daniel improved by massive amounts honestly. He’s great in the Weird Al movie and Swiss Army Man

[@j0ellyfish]

Emma is garbage. Try hard feminist. All the others? They came out very well.

[@pratappaul4932]

I have to say, he is definitely a great actor.

[@keshacow]

Imagine someone yells „HARRY!!“ and dudley and harry both react😂

[@charviverma6379]

He is so well put together and so eloquent, and a very soothing voice 😊

[@dipamochammad1015]

Your greatest line is in 1st installment is "I am Not Harry" 😂😁

[@journeywithrosie]

He legitimately scared me in the devil all the time. Very underrated actor.

[@Brinta3]

When a short is a bit too short.

[@devansharora2453]

True

[@repletereplete8002]

His performance in the Meal Ticket segment of Buster Scruggs is hauntingly great.

[@ValhallaLad]

I was sitting here trying to remember where I had seen him from, and looking back to when I watched Meal Ticket, I had no idea this was the man who also played Dumpy Diddykins. What a transformation.

[@Xgil2Play]

I did not know ot was him!! 😮 I've seen films where he's in yet I didn't know he played the one of the most iconic characters in the Harry Potter series 😔

[@reysgotplans5005]

Such a sweet and pleasant voice 😍 such an upgrade for Duddys shouting 😂

[@CharliesWifey]

Dudley: MOVE! 😡 Harry: He’s asleep 🤫

[@XxJinxxX670]

Bro Dudley is In good form

[@Nezumi99]

My fav things about HP actors is that they all grew up to be humble, kind and thoughtful people. They are still with their feet on the ground, even tho they experienced fame in such a young age

[@ardyisdeniralg9147]

He's going to become a great actor one day. I've been watching his films, I can tell

[@sg-rs3bu]

His name is literally HARRY😅😂

[@Jo_Wardy]

I loved him in the Queens Gambit

[@casebycase_904]

Omg i loved that show and i did not know it was Dudley!!!!

[@Jo_Wardy]

@@casebycase_904 well he changed so much and he is such a good actor he lost so much weight

[@casebycase_904]

@Jo_Wardy yes he did, and he is an amazing actor! I truly enjoy him - in the HP series and in the QG! Good for him!!!

[@cooperminion825]

He was in The Queen's Gambit?! Who did he play?

[@James-ys5jt]

@@cooperminion825 He played Harry Beltick, Beth’s final opponent at her first competition. Among other appearances he had in the show

[@Orpheonix]

He's absolutely perfect as Edgar Allen Poe in Netflix's Pale Blue Eye

[@thomasfy4]

He nearly got replaced in the last film because of his weight loss

[@rebeccahoffman2493]

I'm impressed by his vibe. Very mellow.

[@EdithJustice]

he was amazing in the devil all the time. hope to see him in many more movies.

[@hugosanchez7599]

He doesn't get enough credit for his role in HP as a kid just because he was a hated character

[@ccm9876]

A very good actor in my books, very adaptable in roles. Just like Christian Bale with his physical adaptations and also Gary Oldman.

[@CrownMe13]

He did a great job playing Poe

[@MilouAT]

You can still 100% see it’s him, although he changed too. Funny to see the “old” Dudley! (The actor of course ;))

[@Vanessa-ff1jz]

Hope he’s ok :( sending love and support ❤

[@neryskkiran1820]

He's not ill. Are you saying he looks unwell? A bit rude. Projecting? If so, I hope you get better.

[@akshaymundkur]

It is hard to believe this handsome and soft-spoken adult was once the pampered and bratty Dudley Dursley on screen.

[@MsAppassionata]

Wow! He looks nothing like he did in Harry Potter. They must have made him gain weight in order to play that part.

[@abcisneros91]

It was over 20 years ago. He probably just lost weight.

[@Phoenix.219]

I could recognize him only bcz of the eyes. I never realised before this video that his eyes are so easily recognizable

[@EughhBrothereughh]

He did so great even as a kid he was like a pro. I didn't know it was his first acting job in a movie. Tbh he was better than Daniel no shade. My boy Daniel couldn't act for shit in the first ones

[@DrownInLysergic]

Yeah Daniel had a real hard time with it in the first movie, started to grow into himself in the second, but it wasn't until the 3rd that he was actually a pro.

[@sgtjohnson]

Woah! He definitely slimmed down since HP!

[@man1k701]

He looks friendly irl

[@Xylaax]

I never realised this is the same actor that played dudley, I just remember seeing him as the armless and legless guy in balad of buster scruggs

[@gerryfegan3608]

I can't believe this is Dudley. I knew I recognized them and I knew it was him. I just didn't want to believe it until I saw this. Phenomenal actor and if you don't believe me go watch the devil all the time

[@Stoneheart_sapphireeye]

Mate, who would have thought he'd be such a good actor? He did very well as Dudley, but the roles he's playing now, as an adult, are on another level. Not to mention how different he looks now. I hardly recognised him.

[@ItsAceB]

looks like a young version of the guy who played evil morbius

[@alexandertelson3713]

Evil Morbius-Played By Matt Smith Matt Smith-who played the Doctor The Doctor-Also played by Patrick Troughton Patrick Troughton-Harry Mallings Grandpa BOOM! (I don't know what I just did?)

[@chrispeplinski7306]

Very handsome

[@himawari.520]

he's not ugly, he's not that good looking.. but he has something that makes me can't stop looking at him, like easy to look at 😮😮

[@john-chung-hsuanwu8766]

He looks like a decent good guy who did an excellent job portraying the rule of a mean annoying boy. Excellent job. Thank you for completing our childhood.

[@ryanblanch2764]

To be fair, Dudley got a little redemption arc in the last book and movie, but the scenes were cut from the film.

[@_thecell_]

Kind of reminds me of Matt Smith

[@stevenwebster4504]

Just found out this guy's grandad played the second doctor..mad

[@ambzerambzer8800]

I feel like he’s probably told people he was in Harry Potter and they didn’t believe him, I don’t see or hear Dudley in him at all

[@SoonGone]

I never realised he played Dudley. I remember seeing him play that Story Teller who was just a Head and Torso. Jeez he's thin now, i hope he's healthy.

[@ColorsofHopeCraftsASMR]

Wow, he looks and sounds way different now! You’d never know he played the bully cousin.

[@mialarsson4972]

He’s absolutely amazing in the Netflix show Queen’s Gambit! If you guys wanna watch him in something from recent years. ☺️

[@rafabundiz]
