Rubeus Hagrid
Roles in bigger films followed; the James Bond films "GoldenEye" (1995) and "The World Is Not Enough" (1999), a supporting role in "From Hell" (2001), as well as half-giant Rubeus Hagrid in the "Harry Potter" films (2001–2011). J. K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series, had Coltrane at the top of her list to play Hagrid and, when asked whom she would like to see in the role, responded "Robbie Coltrane for Hagrid" in one quick breath.
