Potterverse Extras Turning Up In Cormoran Strike


Cormoran Strike will have lots of easter eggs in their cast as extras who were cast in the Potterverse movies are showing up in Rowling’s new TV show.

[...] According to IMDB, the dead body in question that starts the series “slain supermodel Lula Landry” will be played by Elarica Johnson, who was a wizarding waitress in Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.

Her boyfriend (well on and off boyfriend) Evan Duffield will be played by a Slytherin extra, Bronson Webb.

[...] Other actors who have been cast recently: Killian Scott has been cast as D.I. Eric Wardle, and will play his for all three novels. Kerr Logan plays Matthew Cunliffe, Robin’s rather unfortunate fiance. And Leo Bill will play John Bristow, who is Luna’s brother and the man who wants her killer brought to justice. Other cast members include, but are not limited to, Tezlym Senior-Sakutu as Rochelle Onifade (Lula’s friend); Martin Shaw as Tony Landry (Lula’s uncle); and Siân Phillips as Lady Yvette Bristow, Lula and John’s mother.
