When Nick Hilton director of the Magic Circle introduce me to his web series about adult Harry Potter fans. I found it to be quite entertaining even making me laugh at times. But there was one actor that always stuck out from the rest, his name is Charles Streeter. Charles character Kris seemed unlike the others he stood out from all the rest. So I asked Nick to pass these questions to Charles and here is his replies to my questions.
What made you audition for the Magic Circle or want to join in on it?
CHARLES: I saw the audition come up on a casting website, for a web series about Harry Potter fans. Immediately I saw comic value, and something lots of people could relate to. Upon reading the script I was proved right, as I laughed out loud, and it took me back to being twelve years old and wanting to board the Hogwarts Express (I’m still waiting for my letter).
Why was Kris’s attitude to the group more serious than the others?
CHARLES:I always thought that Kris’s view points and dialogue in the scripts made him seem a lot more researched (or at least that’s what he thought) than the other characters in the group. His love of the literature over the “so called movies” is standout. He considers himself the ultimate ardent fan.
What was your favorite part of the series in the Magic Circle?
CHARLES: My favourite part of the series is the outdoor barbecue in Harry Potter and the Sad Veggie Quiche. The scene was originally supposed to be shot on a hot, sunny day. On the day itself, weather was against and we all got soaked. But due to our director Nick pushing on, the rain made for a funny typically British scene.
What house would Kris be in if he was sorted into a house in Hogwarts?
CHARLES: I’d like to think Kris believes he has all the best attributes of each of the houses bar Hufflepuff. He’s as brave as a Gryffindor, as researched as a Ravenclaw, with the nasty bite of a Slytherin.
What can we see you in next like any future projects you have coming up?
CHARLES: I’ve just been cast in a short film Medace, shooting in Dorset at the end of this month and am currently developing my own short, shooting in the new year.
Many thanks to Charles for answering my questions also you can follow him on twitter and see him in the Magic Circle. Also be sure to thank Nick for bringing this to us. He’s a brilliant writer and amazing director.
