The actor would join John Lithgow, Janet McTeer and Paapa Essiedu who are prepared or in negotiations to interpret Professor Albus Dumbledore, Professor Minerva McGonagall and Professor Severus Snape, respectively.
While HBO has remained hermetic, comments on Frost’s possible choice such as Hagrid began to circulate online last week, even in Reddit, since fans have been concentrated in a cryptic publication of Frost on Instagram on March 20, “It’s happening, it’s really happening”as a possible track, along with fans with eagle eyes who noticed that Frost has now followed members of the Harry Pothter series cast as Lithgow and Essiedu.
