We
hear that Scottish rockers Franz Ferdinand are up for
a role in the next Harry Potter movie. The band, which
won this years coveted Mercury Music Prize pleaded with
film bosses to allow them to appear in the film, titled
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
Lead
singer Alex Kapranos revealed to The Sun newspaper that
the band will feature in the film where they play a
gig at the Hogwarts Yule Ball.
He
said: "There's a section where there's a band
of ugly sisters playing and I think some members of
Franz Ferdinand will be those sisters.
"There's
an innocence about the films. I like how there's good
and evil. That's a clarity which is quite refreshing."
Ex-Stone Roses frontman Ian Brown famousley appeared
in the last Potter film, Harry Potter and the Prisoner
of Azkaban.
