There are so many incredible actors in the Harry Potter series that picking just one can be hard but Bill Nighy is, interestingly enough, one of the actors in literally everything.

Bill Nighy was in the Harry Potter series as Rufus Scrimgeour in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1. While that’s common knowledge among Harry Potter fans, it is exciting to look at the series as a whole and realize how many actors are in other properties we love.

Focusing on Nighy, it’s fun because he’s also in one of the best episodes of Doctor Who (titled “Vincent and the Doctor”) where he talks to Vincent Van Gogh (unknowingly) and shares how he thinks Van Gogh is one of the greatest painters to ever live.

But what makes Bill Nighy so special is that he’s just in so many things for fans to love. From Love Actually to Pirates of the Caribbean and more, he’s an incredible actor that just keeps so many fans on the edge of their seats.

So sometimes, it is fun to remember that he was in the Harry Potter series and think back to Rufus Scrimgeour. He was the typical Nighy character, filled with life even if it was for a brief moment in the grand scheme of the entire series but it was still fun to see him take on the world of Harry Potter and remembering all the actors who brought the series to life can be extremely fun! There are just so many!
