This is the cast for the first of the eight “Harry Potter” movies, “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone” (UK) or “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” (US). One of the most unusual aspects of this cast listing is that all the top billed stars of the movie were virtually unknown, unproven actors. Many of the main supporting cast were already quite famous, and several of them had already won prestigious awards including Academy Awards, BAFTA, and Golden Globes.
