Stunt Double Expected To Replace Harris In Harry Potter Posted by Ashish on 10.30.2002
Following the death of Richard Harris, his stunt double looks to be taking his place...
With Richard Harris passing away tragically due to cancer last week, the question arose as to who would be playing the role of Professor Dumbledore in the 3rd part of the Harry Potter franchise, titled The Prisoner of Azkaban. Harris played the role in the first two parts.
It appears that Harris' stunt double for the first two films, Harry Robinson, will take over the role of Dumbledore.
Robinson apparently looks like Harris and can also impersonate his voice well. The 72 year old Robinson said that playing the role would be his tribute to Harris.
