The Dude Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I don't remember if this has ever been discusses here but... Do you think it was intentional that they made Snape look like Trent Reznor? I remember the first time I watched HP and the Philosopher's/Sorcerer's Stone, I honestly thought it was Trent Reznor at first glance. It took me a few moments to realize it was Hans Gruber.

Ashley Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I dunno...he just looked like how snape was described in the book to me Link to post Share on other sites
The Dude Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 Maybe when Jo wrote the book she was thinking of Trent. Perhaps she was a big NIN fan. Link to post Share on other sites
dookdookdook Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I don't see the resemblance. Young Snape and old Reznor pictures, yes. Rickman and Reznor, no, other than long hair. Link to post Share on other sites
The Dude Posted May 14, 2014 Author Share Posted May 14, 2014 No, not Rickman and Reznor. Snape and Reznor. Do you guys not remember this when the first HP movie hit the screen? People were making jokes about them casting Trent Reznor in Harry Potter etc. It was a thing. Link to post Share on other sites
dookdookdook Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Ok, adult Snape and Reznor, no, other than the long black hair. JKR didn't describe Snape much other than long greasy black hair. I didn't get into HP until CoS came out so I missed all the beginning stuff. I immediately thought of Elliot Marston though when I saw Snape, that same sneering voice.
