Bill Nighy joins cast of Harry Potter and the Deat...

Bill Nighy is no stranger to fantasy adventure movies, having played the elder vampire Viktor in the Underworld series and The Flying Dutchman's tentacle-faced captain Davy Jones in the last two Pirates of the Caribbean films.
He now tells The Independent he has joined the cast of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the two-part film adaptation of the final book in J.K. Rowling's series.
The 59-year-old actor told the newspaper: "I don't think I'm allowed to say it but I'm going to be in the next Harry Potter film. I won't say which character, but he's a goodie. I just got the gig."
Asked if he'd read the books, Nighy said: "Not yet, but I will. It's rather like being in a Shakespeare that way, you know?"
He previously joked that he was "the only British actor who hasn't been in Harry Potter."
Part one of the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows movie comes out on November 19, 2010, and part two on July 15, 2011.
