Robbie Coltrane And Michael Gambon On Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part One

[@heyysimone]

robbie coltrane was perfect as hagrid. absolutely perfect. and a lot of people dont seem to like michael gambon as dumbledore, but i think he was really good.

[@mintysauce7783]

I agree with both

[@dstacyify]

And to think Robin Williams was actually considered for Hagrid. Can you imagine if that had happened? I love Robin but he would've been a terrible fit for that role. Thank God they went with Coltrane. Most of the criticism towards Gambon was due to how different he was from Richard Harris (Dumbledore in the first two films) and in particular how aggressive his Dumbledore was in GoF. He was fantastic in the later films though.

[@amberj6482]

The only time I had any issue with his Dumbledore was in the 4th, but that was not his fault. That was script and direction. Goblet of Fire should have been two movies.

[@Poseidonblue123]

He was very very marvelous ❤️

[@BrandonjSlippingAway]

His performance as an actor was fine, but he essentially took a dump on the character as it was established by Harris. Which makes sense as he never saw the films and doesn't seem to care very much. So that being the case it's where the director should've stepped up and been more forceful about what they wanted from the character.

[@sarahbrown891]

My father passed this year...he was hagrid. A man who at 6 foot 7" loved Disney movies and was always kind to children and animals. He saw the light in you, just like hagrid. A huge man with a heart of fabrige... I watch Harry potter to see my dad again....

tbh i really liked michael gambon as dumbledore, perhaps even preferred him. richard harris was fantastic, but he was so gentle i cant see him being able to do the tougher, more intense scenes that followed later in the series. love them both, and its kind of irrelevant but ive been wanting to say it somewhere for a while.

[@M3RKSYNDICATE]

emzlovesatc Believe me Dumbledore can be vicious in stressful situations.

[@stefanbayoumi5148]

I also think Harris only had the chance to work with Chris Columbus, and had he had the chance to work with Alfonso Cuarón or David Yates, he might've succeeded

[@TheM1cK3y]

Yes!

[@TheM1cK3y]

I was looking for the words to express how I felt!

[@koenigkorczak]

but... Dumbledore is supposed to be gentle and kind. That's like his thing. Seeing him go into power mode against Voldemort - which of course Richard would have been able to do - would have been so amazing.. I kinda feel like Michael didn't even try to understand Dumbledore as a character, wasn't interested at all and that's really a shame considering how rich and deep Dumbledore really is.

[@LittleLyonMan]

Gambon played Dumbledore exceptionally, such a terrific actor. I honestly think that he has the best voice in film.

[@kelseyspringer72]

And don't forget when he plays in anything else you immediately recognize him

[@KingGhidorah5464]

it took him a few films to figure the character out, but by the sixth, he had it.

[@DS-es2jt]

LittleLyonMan your right bro

[@Ranger1812]

KingGhidorah5464 That was bad direction, not acting. People always focus in GoF like it isn't the outlier, even though PoA came out first. People also always ignore how Fred and George fought after their age potion failed. Mike Newell simply wasn't a good director. He didn't get characters. He's far too over-the-top and hamfisted. Cuaron and especially Yates knew Dumbledore, and HBP and DH have the perfect Dumbledore. Dumbledore was always shouting and was constantly angry in GoF. His voice sounds thicker for some reason. But in HBP he was just phenomenonal. His speech at the start-of-term feast was top notch. That's what you should show people when they say Gambon was bad. Their bias is pathetic. They make up their mind, and ignore evidence that doesn't fit their made-up narrative.

[@dstacyify]

@@Ranger1812 Gambon was at his best as Dumbledore in the afterlife scene in Deathly Hallows Part 2. He played Dumbledore nearly directly from the books in that scene, it was near perfect. I think a lot of the criticism towards him was because of how different he was from Harris in the first two films (and Harris's Dumbledore was considered by many to be on point with the version from the books). In regards to the directors Mike Newell wasn't perfect but he wasn't terrible either. As over-aggressive as Gambon's Dumbledore was in GoF Ralph Fiennes was at his best as Voldemort in that film and Newell got the dark tone that was needed for that film just right IMO. In contrast Yates completely ruined Voldemort's character in both DH films. For example the Draco hugging scene (Voldemort from the books never would've done that), his cringeworthy declaration that Harry Potter was dead, and the ultimately the final battle scene that led to him disintegrating (WTF, that couldn't have been more of a deviation from what happened in the books and was just completely unnecessary). Also the entire Battle of Hogwarts sequence in DH Part 2 was poorly done because Yates left out so much important material from the books (for example Grawp's role in the battle which was significant, also Buckbeak, the centaurs, and the thestrals). If you look at all of the directors the franchise had Yates as good as he was didn't always respect the source material in his films (Ron for example was also extremely poorly written once Yates took over as director and was nothing like the character in the books). Cuaron, Newell, and Chris Columbus were all better at respecting the material from the books in their films than Yates was.

[@antenerokent492]

Michael Gambon's acting as dumbledore was at his best in the half blood prince(in my opinion).. He was an entirely new character and I loved how he carried it out..

[@minttt_]

Same. And in the order of the phoenix

[@iitsMikeB]

His acting was good in all of them, however he was directed really poorly in the fourth film, partly due to the director not having read the book when making the movie.

[@Snagprophet]

We talk about how Robbie Coltrane is irreplaceable but yet we talk about how Michael Gambon is the perfect replacement Dumbledore

[@ThisHandleSystemCanGetNicked]

@@iitsMikeB Then how did they adapt it? Surely the director needs to know the source material even if slightly?

[@iitsMikeB]

@@ThisHandleSystemCanGetNicked Apparently not. The adaptation went from a lot of mysteries being solved throughout the book, to one single mystery (Who put the name in the Goblet of Fire?), which we already knew from the first scene in the movie.

[@jaimegutierrezjag78]

Michael gambon voice is awsome

[@udarajayawardena2018]

[@jadenkhor3523]

Michael Gambon is such an amazing actor. Really. A world class actor in his own league , if that even makes any sense. I'm so glad he was the next Dumbledore. Richard Harris will now rest in peace knowing the Dumbledore character was and has been played out by such an outstanding actor. Brilliant.

It’s funny that Robbie had such a different interpretation of what Hagrid sounded like, and Rowling probably heard him while writing Hagrid. I think Robbie and Alan were the ones she handpicked for the films, it’s no wonder they’re universally called “the best casting picks”.

[@randomisraelite]

there are somethings that the movie actually got better than the books although the books are muuuuch better and in my opinion gambon is one of them. he interpreted dumbledore in a less proverbial way and created a more original wise and powerful character and he still kept dumbledore's absent minded humor and i dnt think harris wouldve captured the ferocity as well as he did i just dnt think so obviously its impossible to be sure but i really like gambon

[@laurenwhite7367]

What I find interesting is both Dumbledores are Irish in real life, yet Harris played down his real Irish accent in the film, whereas Gambon, whose Irish accent is barely there now, played Dumbledore with a strong Irish accent. I love both but Harris will always be Dumbledore to me.

[@dougdoesall]

Harris stuck more to the potter books, but that doesn't translate well into movies, which require more expansive characters...less "disney-ish" to be in a higher echelon. Gambon brought Dumbledore to life beyond a stereotypical story book wizard.

Sir Michael Gambon is a great actor. I like him as Dumbledore.

[@luismaldonado8944]

I agree. At first, when I was growing up, I really didn't accept Michael Gambon as Dumbledore because I grew up seeing Richard Harris. It was until Half Blood Prince is when I began to accept Michael as Dumbledore because I wasn't sure if Richard could've portrayed Dumbledore they way we seen as the series gets darker.
