Ciaran Hinds Talks Role as Aberforth in “Deathly Hallows”

Actor Ciaran Hinds, who will be portraying the character of Aberforth Dumbledore in the upcoming “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” films, was interviewed by the Hill-man Morning Show which broadcasts out of WAAF in Boston earlier today. In the interview, which can be heard here starting around the 5:15 mark, Mr. Hinds spoke very briefly about his part in the film, relating how “you might have a flash of my eyes in one of [the films].” The actor went on to discuss his role as Aberforth by saying:

Basically I’m there to play one long scene where I explain to the kids – who are not kids anymore – about some part of the history of Albus Dumbledore’s life that they weren’t fully up to the mark in. But I did get, for one split second, someone put a wand in my hand and I got to flash it.

Many thanks to SS!
