Discussion: Who can play Snape?
He's very pretty, but not a match for Snape as far as background/ethnicity goes. He's also too soft looking, IMO… Snape is thin, bordering on gaunt, and has sharp features like thin lips and large, hooked nose.
Having said that, he'd still be better than Paapa Essiedu. lol
Who's the actor who played the young version of Snape in the films? Not when he was hung upside down, but the young young version of him when he's laying on the grass with Lily as a kid? Wouldn't he be about the right age now? Give him dark contacts/wig and I'm sure he'd be a good fit.

Yes, I agree about the prettiness <3
Ah okay, that's interesting 🙂 I can't remember about his ethnicity in the books/films, sorry. ^^; The noses here don't look very hooked.
He is actually very scary in Scholar Who Walks the Night XD
Nagini was Asian in Fantastic Beasts though, so he could have still been likely to be cast, or someone like him.
Alina was Asian in Shadow and Bone, and the storyline changed for her to be Shu.
