The moderators here in Wizarding Wireless Network are going to be starting a new feature where we will showcase one actor or actress a month. You will all have the opportunity to vote on who you would like and then we will see a poll and thread devoted to that one individual.

We've decided to start out this month with Adam Sandler. Many of you may be asking yourself why we chose him, well...we don't have a very good answer to that biggrin.gif , other than he is one of my favorites and I got to put the thread together first.

You all will be picking the next ones. This thread is the place for you to be putting your ideas down and then shortly we will start a poll. Since Adam Sandler is first, lets have an actress next month.

I suggest Kenneth Branagh, he was wonderful as Gilderoy Lockhart, but I've seen him play so many good and believable characters, in The Boat That Rocked he was soooooo unpleasant as Sir Alistair Dormandy and Sir Arless Loveless in Wild Wild West, just horrible, but both were so well portrayed. I love his Shakespeare films, he did a great job with Loves Labours Lost which used lots of old songs by the likes of Cole Porter to tell the story, I loved it, Much Ado About Nothing he was really funny, Henry V, Hamlet. He's also good playing more up to date people such as Ernest Shackleton in Shackleton and Wallender, a grumpy, depressed Swedish detective, nothing like Lockhart. He's an actor who's involvement in a film practically guarantees its quality.

If you've only seen him as Gilderoy Lockhart you really need to see some more of his work, you won't regret it.
