10 years!!? No one has time for that.

If each season is 5-10 episodes, it wouldn't be a huge commitment.

Oldman would be an interesting choice

Isn't Oldman short?

Daniel Craig would be anxiously anticipating Dumbledore’s death after 10 years.

60, 64, and 50.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson so he can be both 007 and Dumbledore.

Jude Law could continue

He's 51. It would take a lot of make up.

Yeah I think he's a decade too young

I do think they should find someone who can play an ancient wizard with lots of energy. IRRC, Dumbledore is well into

He'd have to play him well into his 80s. I think 60s is a good age.

Wait, is Disney in charge of this reboot? Halle Berry.

Warner Brothers is in charge, not Disney. Come on, man.

byujacob

Yup, Disney is the only studio that would change a white character to a minority

Liam Neeson (72). Some other suggestions:

Casting Voldemort (Fiennes) as Dumbledore would be funny.

It's a book series. The movies only scratched the surface. Whether you like it

Exactly. A movie remake doesn’t interest me. A TV series that can more fully

I wish they'd animate it. I think it would be so good. Plus they wouldn't have to worry about so many kid actors.

byujacob

Good point. Sometimes you’re more limited with live action, especially kids.

Could be awesome if done right. Arcane is one of my favorites on Netflix
