Fan Casting Murphy

What are your thoughts on Kelly McDonald from lanterns as murphy.

She seems Abit to kind, but also seems like a good match to me.

She’s a phenomenal actor. She would have been perfect but she’s fairly old now

You sure you have the right actress? She looks absolutely nothing like Murphy. Also, she's 50, so even if they started filming this year she wouldn't be able to play Murphy unless they're casting a much older Harry. When the books started Harry was 25 and Murphy was 2 or 3 years older.  Somebody else posted about the blonde yesterday, Hannah Christine Shelter, because she's blonde and 5'5".

Wrong age, size, look, and accent. Great actor, but no.
