Hey guys.

I'm going for an audition next Sunday up at London (UK). Its an audition for the part of Tom Riddle in the next Harry Potter Movie, the 6th one. I just feel like sharing this with you all since I feel its a great oppurtunity to get into acting as a career. Obviously, there will be 100s of other people there auditioning, but I think even if I dont get the part then it will be a good experiance for me as I will know what meeting Casting directors for a major movie will be like.

I'm confidant in myself, I'm confidant in my acting abilities, but I understand there are people out there who are better than me. There is, however, never a best or worst at any activity in the world, and if I want to pursue the Dramatic Arts as a career then this will be a great oppurtunity for me.

I actually won't be auditioning on arrival.. first of all, everyone who arrives fills out an application form then sits down for a brief meeting with the Casting directors. Successful applicants will be contacted and will then be invited to audition.

It will be a long drive down to London from where I live.. 2 1/2 hours, but I think its totally worth it.

There are no requirements for applicants, except that you must be 15 - 18 years old and male and bring along a passport as proof of your identity. Also, a likeness to Ralph Fiennes would be appropriate.

I will keep you posted about how it turns out.

Al.

Well, good luck mate. I knew you were considering acting, now you're taking real steps to get there.

I heard that the part of Luna Lovegood had 15,000 girls audition. So you're up against some hard knocks.

Good luck, and please keep use updated mate.

wow I REALLY wish you could get the part even if I don't know you, I bet there won't be 100's but 1000's of applicants. I've always wanted to be an actor as well and when I'm old enough I'm going to America to make my dream happen, good luck, just be confident not too confident and always say to yourself ' The part is for me!'

To Nick: Tom Riddle is Lord Voldemort in his Teens, up until he took the name 'Voldemort'. Voldemort is the Evil Wizard seeking to kill Harry Potter and rid the wizarding world of people of non-magical heritage. Also, he wants to launch a genocide against normal people who haven't even heard of magic.

To Grunge: Ridde appeared in the 2nd HP film, but as a memory out of a diary. In the sixth book he appears through looking into the past, he murders his parents and frames his uncle for his terrible crimes, and gets away with it whilst his uncle is sentenced to life imprisonment in the wizarding prison of Azkaban.

If anyone has anymore questions feel free to ask.

Good Luck Man....I have always wanted to be an actor and I am quite good at acting to and am going to take place in 4 years of Theater throughout high school. I also have a friend at church who is going to the famouse acting school of University of Southern California!!! The teahcer there taught Willl Ferrel and many other famous actors and he promised next time he and the teacher came down I could have lunch with him and he would tell me about him.
