Some of Harry Potter Cast to Appear on BBC Red Nose Day Event

by

Harry Potter Half Blood Prince PosterThe Red Nose Day Comic Relief show airs its annual comedy special this Friday, March 13, 2009, on the BBC. Some of the Harry Potter movie cast are expected to at least make an appearance for part of this year’s comedy special. The program description is pretty darn vague, but it sounds like some part of the cast will be making a very brief appearance during one of the hours, however I doubt it is very Harry Potter related and more just about the actors/actresses supporting the cause.

The special benefits the Comic Relief Charity. The Comic Relief Charity has other Harry Potter ties beyond just this years show. For one, J.K. Rowling donates the profits (or at least part of them) from the two Harry Potter companion books called Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Quidditch Through the Ages to the Comic Relief Charity. Also, cast members such as Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley) and Dawn French (Fat Lady in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban) have appeared on past editions of the annual special.
