We
reported last year that UK TV personality Ben Shepherd would have a
cameo in the upcoming
Half-Blood Prince.
Quote:
He is set to make a brief on-screen appearance as the parent of a young wizard.
Shepherd said: "I was lucky enough to get a part in one of the scenes. I'm a wizarding parent in a joke shop.
"I've done documentaries for the last three films and got to know everybody really well, and they finally said: 'Come on and give it a go'."
Ben will also be
hosting a behind-the-scenes documentary on the making of the sixth
Harry Potter film, which will air in the UK later this year. We will have the video whenever it is released and made available online.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will be released July 17, 2009.
