| Hermione Granger |
We're putting together a special version of Page 2's Casting Call -- although we're reversing our usual Casting Call procedure. In other words, we'll show you the actor from the "Harry Potter" movie and describe his or her personality, and then we'll ask you to match that character with an appropriate figure from the sports world.
Below is our choice and the best nominations sent in by readers. Continue choosing the cast by voing for the best candidate to portray Hermione Granger. Voting at left will take you to the next page of nominees.
Granger is the third wheel in the Harry Potter-Ron Weasley-Hermione Granger triad -- third wheel because (a.) she's a girl; (b.) she studies all the time; and (c.) she has a tendency to be a stickler for following the letter of the rules, though, of course, when push comes to shove, she's always right there. She is also the daughter of muggles, which makes her a prime target for Draco Malfoy and his doctrine of wizardly purity.
Next week, we'll run the winning cast of athletic celebrities as selected by you.
