Because the harry potter movie was made a long ago, we lost many stars from the cast of this film. Check below the list of all the actors according to celebdeathnews who are dead now.
1. Leslie Phillips
The renowned British actor’s face may not be recognizable to Harry Potter fans, but his voice is. Leslie provided the ethereal Sorting Hat, which determined the Hogwarts House for Harry, Ron, Hermione, and their classmates, in the first two Harry Potter movies.
After a protracted illness, Phillips, 98, died quietly in his sleep on November 8, 2022, according to his agent Jonathan Lloyd, who also confirmed the news to Deadline.
2. Robbie Coltrane
The renowned Scottish-born actor Robbie Coltrane, who played Hagrid the Giant in the Harry Potter movies, passed away on October 14, 2022, at the age of 72.
- His representative, Belinda Wright, told the BBC that Robbie passed suddenly in a hospital close to Falkirk, Scotland.
- I will always remember him as a steadfastly devoted customer. In addition to being a fantastic actor, he was also brilliantly humorous and forensically bright, and after 40 years of being honored to be his agent, I shall miss him, said, Wright.
- “His sister Annie Rae, children Spencer and Alice, and their mother Rhona Gemmell all survive him. Wright said, requesting that people “respect Robbie’s family’s privacy at this painful time” and thanking the medical personnel at Forth Valley Royal Hospital in Larbert for their kindness and tact.
- Robbie’s career includes a breakthrough performance as Dr. Edward “Fitz” Fitzgerald in Jimmy McGovern’s Cracker series, even though he is most recognized for his portrayal as Hagrid.
As a result of Coltrane’s performance in the series, which won him a BAFTA, he was recruited to join the James Bond film series, where he played Valentin Zukovsky in GoldenEye and The World Is Not Enough.
3. Richard Harris
In the first two Harry Potter films, Richard Harris played Hogwarts headmaster Albus Dumbledore. Hodgkin’s disease killed him at 72 in 2002. Michael Gambon played Dumbledore in the remaining films after his death.
- On New Year’s Day 2022, HBO Max’s Harry Potter 20th anniversary reunion event included director Chris Columbus’ loving memories of Richard. Richard believed Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets’ phoenix bird was real.
- “Richard came in, looked at the phoenix, and said, ‘Wow, they train these things magnificently these days,’” Chris told Insider. Richard believed it was real and videotaped the entire movie.
4. Richard Griffiths
Richard Griffiths, who played Vernon Dursley, died in 2013 at 65. After heart surgery at University Hospital Coventry, England, he died.
- Despite his cruelty to Harry in the movies, Daniel had the opposite experience with him off-set. “Richard stood by my side during two of the most important stages of my career,” he told BBC.
- “My first Harry shot was outside the Dursleys in August 2000, before the Potter shooting began. Richard made any room “twice as funny.”
Harry Potter’s Sorcerer’s Stone, Chamber of Secrets, Prisoner of Azkaban, Order of the Phoenix, and Deathly Hallows: Part 1 featured Richard.
5. David Legeno
In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Part 1, and Part 2, David Legeno played werewolf bounty hunter Fenrir Greyback.
In 2014, he died hiking in Death Valley’s Manly Beacon from heat-related issues. The Inyo County Sheriff’s Department found no foul play. His manager told NBC News that David was always an “adventurer” after his sudden demise.
5. Roger Lloyd Pack
In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Roger Lloyd Pack played an important Ministry of Magic member Barty Crouch, Sr. Pancreatic cancer killed him at 69 in 2014. His representative informed BBC he “died at home surrounded by his family.”

Alan Rickman, who played Severus Snape throughout the Harry Potter series, died of pancreatic cancer at 69 in 2016. Harry Potter fans and actors mourned his demise.
- J.K. Harry Potter author Rowling tweeted her condolences. “Alan Rickman’s passing has left me speechless. “He was a terrific performer and a beautiful man,” she wrote.
- Harry Potter considered Alan one of the “most loyal and most supporting persons” in the profession. Emma, who played Hermione Granger, wrote on Facebook that she was “very lucky to have worked and spent time with such a special man and performer.”
7. John Hurt
In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, John Hurt’s Garrick Ollivander helped Harry Potter find his first wand. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Parts 1 and 2 included him.
- John died at 77 in 2017, but no details were released. His 2015 cancer diagnosis may have killed him. He was optimistic during treatment but realistic about his prospects.
- “I can’t say I worry about mortality, but it’s hard to get to my age and not have a little contemplation of it,” he told Radio Times.
We’re just passing time and sitting briefly. But my treatment is going great, so I’m optimistic.”
8. Robert Hardy
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Prisoner of Azkaban, Goblet of Fire, and Order of the Phoenix featured Robert Hardy as Minister for Magic Cornelius Fudge.
His 70-year cinematic career ended in 2017 at 91. “Gruff, stylish, twinkly, and always respectful,” his relatives told BBC after his death.
Harry Potter affected his final years, but his fame went beyond moviegoers. After his death, the British royal family honored him for reading from Henry the Fifth during the 600th Anniversary of the Battle of Agincourt service in 2015.
9. Helen McCrory
Helen McCrory’s portrayal of Narcissa Malfoy, wife to Lucius and mother to Draco, was praised despite her dark side. London cancer killed 52-year-old McCrory in 2021.
- Her husband Damian Lewis wrote a touching tribute to her in The Sunday Times after her passing, focusing on her as a person.
- “Helen was even more clever than an actress,” he wrote. She was sociable. She said, ‘I’m far more interested in who I’m with than where I am,’ and wanted to share. She also practiced kindness and generosity. That you release these things to improve the world and make others feel better.”
- Helen played Narcissa in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and the final two films.
