speaker_4HOST
And Johnny Flynn as Lucius Malfoy brings a very specific kind of aristocratic, almost rock star arrogance, establishing the terrifying wealth and influence of the pureblood elite.
speaker_3HOST
But wait, we talked about Molly Weasley, but where is Arthur?
speaker_4HOST
Ah, yes.
speaker_3HOST
Where is he?
speaker_4HOST
It is a highly unusual and highly aggressive production and marketing strategy.
speaker_3HOST
Let's read the names tagged with joining for Season 2.
speaker_3HOST
We have Rafe Spall as Arthur Weasley.
speaker_3HOST
We have Kit Harington as Gilderoy Lockhart.
Mitchell MarshallHOST
First of all, there was a fairly big casting announcements for the Chamber of Secrets.
Mitchell MarshallHOST
We have our Arthur Weasley, our Moaning Myrtle and our Colin Creevey.
Mitchell MarshallHOST
And look, Moaning Myrtle, small part, but critical.
Mitchell MarshallHOST
She shows up again in Goblet of Fire.
Mitchell MarshallHOST
Arthur Weasley.
Mitchell MarshallHOST
Big deal.
Mitchell MarshallHOST
Colin Creevey.
Mitchell MarshallHOST
But he's in the DA, and then, you know, he dies in the Battle of Hogwarts.
Seamus GormanHOST
They do not recognize him.
Seamus GormanHOST
And we finally see that reality for ourselves in Order of the Phoenix, when Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny unexpectedly encounter Neville and Augusta while visiting Arthur Weasley at St. Mungo's.
Seamus GormanHOST
Up until that point, Neville had never openly discussed what happened to his parents with them, and when the truth comes out, he is clearly uncomfortable with the fact that they now know.
Seamus GormanHOST
Augusta, on the other hand, is surprised that Neville hasn't told them, because as far as she is concerned, there's nothing shameful about what happened to Frank and Alice.
AndrewHOST
So I think they heard us and they decided to get on it.
AndrewHOST
Uh, Ralph Fiennes, who is actually the son of Timothy Spall, is going to play Arthur Weasley, and that also confirms that Arthur is not in season one of the show, which we kinda got the impression because in that latest trailer we saw Mo- Molly at the Burrow, but not Arthur.
MicahHOST
He's busy.
MicahHOST
He's working.
Seamus GormanHOST
In stark contrast with Harry, we have the Weasleys who were poor, and I mean poor.
Seamus GormanHOST
It wasn't that Arthur had a bad job, it was just that him and Molly had so many children.
Seamus GormanHOST
Seven sets of school supplies, seven sets of clothes, and seven mouths to feed.
Seamus GormanHOST
Eight if you include Harry's.
Seamus GormanHOST
Arthur's salary had to cover a lot.
Seamus GormanHOST
Their financial situation became so dire that Weasley almost became synonymous with poor, something which Draco so fondly reminded them of whenever he had the chance.
Seamus GormanHOST
Think my name's funny, do you? Well, no need to ask yours.
Seamus GormanHOST
For quite some time, Ron Weasley, Harry's best friend, went without a wand because it had broken.
Tim CurrySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Women, know your limits.
GarethHOST
Get ready to borrow in Potterheads because HBO is expanding the Weasley clan and populating the corridors of Hogwarts for season two.
GarethHOST
Ahead of its premiere this Christmas, HBO has officially announced three key casting additions for the second series adaptation of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Tax Returns.
GarethHOST
Rafe Spool as Arthur Weasley.
GarethHOST
Rafe Spool.
GarethHOST
Rafe Spool,
Seamus GormanHOST
We get a casting announcement for Gilderoy Lockhart recently in Kit Harington, And now three more important characters from the second book have officially been cast.
Seamus GormanHOST
Starting with probably the biggest of the three new castings, we now officially have our Arthur Weasley.
Seamus GormanHOST
Rafe Spall will be taking on the role, joining Katherine Parkinson as Molly Weasley, and completing one of the most important adult pairings in the series.
Seamus GormanHOST
Spall is easily the most established actor out of these three announcements and even if the name doesn't immediately jump out at you, there's a pretty good chance you've seen him in something.
9 MINS LATER
Seamus GormanHOST
Arthur and Lucius are almost complete opposites, despite both coming from old wizarding families.
Seamus GormanHOST
Arthur has very little money, but rejects blood prejudice completely, while Lucius has enormous wealth and influence, and measures people almost entirely through their ancestry and status.
Seamus GormanHOST
Anyway, with Arthur Weasley, Monning Myrtle, and Colin Creevey now officially cast, the Chamber of Secrets ensemble is filling out quickly, and we're starting to get a much clearer picture of what HBO's second season is going to look like.
Seamus GormanHOST
What do you guys think? What do you make of these casting decisions? And what about Johnny Flynn's interpretation of Lucius? Let me know in the comment section down below.
Ethan EdghillCORRESPONDENT

Ethan EdghillCORRESPONDENT
What does Dumbledore use as a portkey to send the group to Grimmauld Place after Arthur Weasley was attacked by Nagin? Oh,
J CarlinHOST
man.
J CarlinHOST
Pretty sure it's a tea kettle.
J CarlinHOST
Yeah, actually.
J CarlinHOST
As long as it's right.
J CarlinHOST
Oh, it's a door that uses a portkey in the form of a pair of boots to send Harry, Ron, Hermione, Genie, Fred, and George to Grimauld Place after Arthur Weasley's attack on Minagini.
J CarlinHOST
Boom.
Joe SlionskiHOST
And now we got a little bit of news you can use.
Joe SlionskiHOST

Alex CarrejoHOST
Crazy.
Joe SlionskiHOST
Yeah.
Joe SlionskiHOST

Alex CarrejoHOST

Joe SlionskiHOST
so i know people were hoping for somebody else for arthur weasley but i think race ball is going to be great in that role um i've already seen some pushback on molly hewitt richards for moaning myrtle because she's a little bit more heavyset than um the one from the movie which is just such a dumb reason to be upset about a casting agreed
Alex CarrejoHOST
