'm very glad with those choices. I can't see a very clear picture anywhere of Natalia Tena, so I can't tell if she'll will be a very good Tonks. They have made a fabulous choice for Luna and Umbridge, and I can see that Helen McCroy has the rightface to become Bellatrix. Overall I'd say pretty good choices.

P.S Does anyone know if the young marauders are going to be in the film?
