We’re so sad to report that British actor Robert Hardy has passed away at the age of 91.
You might not know his name off hand, but you do know his alter ego in the Harry Potter movies, Cornelius Fudge.
Robert‘s family confirmed the news to the BBC saying he had a “tremendous life” and “a giant career in theatre, television and film spanning more than 70 years.”
Robert also starred in the television series All Creatures Great And Small.
Almost immediately after the news, the Harry Potter fandom came out to pay their respects and send their prayers to his family during this difficult time.
RIP Robert Hardy, you were a wonderful asset to the Harry Potter movies and will be truly missed ?? pic.twitter.com/Ev6qs6mQ3y
