Richard Harris: I read the scenes with them and they read back and when we had finished the reading, the little boy, who plays Ron Weasley, turned to me and said, “Mr. Harris?” and I said, “Yes?” “That was quite a good reading. I think you’ll be quite good in this part.” An eleven year old, can you believe it?

Oh, Richard Harris. ;__;

You know, I wound up preferring Michael Gambon as Dumbledore because of how the character ended up, but Richard Harris was the perfect Dumbles for the first two films.
