“My dog found the forbidden toy and chewed it...”
“I think Brendon’s enthusiasm for his job is waning.”
“In Arizona, it’s illegal to cut down a saguaro cactus. Last night this precious 15-foot piece of protected wildlife destroyed my roof.”
“I just wanted some cheese...”

There is a chance to find a real treasure at flea markets and second-hand shops. But not everyone is eager to shop in these places because they think it’s beneath their dignity. The regular visitors of these places don’t try to convince anyone. Why? Because they’ll have more cool stuff for themselves.
At Bright Side, we are happy for these lucky buyers and would like to show you their outstanding findings.

For many, Rachel Green is their favorite Friends character. And it’s no wonder why. Although choosing your favorite Friends’ character is a never-ending debate, you can’t deny that Rachel is the fashionista of the group. Coming from a wealthy family, she’s elegant and stylish and has dreamed of becoming a fashion consultant since the beginning of the series. She clearly loves shopping and not just for anything: she’s into prestigious brands. Her style is a great example to get inspired by and shows that there are clothes that never go out of style!
To honor Rachel Green, Bright Side made a compilation of her best looks throughout the series. We also found out some other interesting facts about her clothing on Friends. Be sure to check out our bonus at the end of the article to find out which celebrities are pulling off Green’s style today.
1. Short black top with a black skirt
Rachel adopted this look in episode 4 of the first season of Friends. She liked it so much and felt so comfortable wearing it that she used the same outfit in episode 19 of the same season. The short black top and a high-waisted skirt are a combination that has come back in style in recent years.
2. Same style, same episode
A classic: the overlay dress. This look is useful for giving new life to a basic black dress or for being able to wear a spring dress during the winter. It never fails! So much so, that in the same episode (season 1, episode 15) you can see her wearing the same overlay dress style, but with different clothes.
3. Kilt-like mini-skirt
A stunning fine-checked skirt, with a matching but not overpowering top are the heart and soul of this gorgeous look. The skirt, inspired by traditional Scottish kilts, immediately draws your attention without being flashy. Rachel certainly knows how to pull it off.
4. Pantyhose provide an elegant touch.
The character played by Jennifer Aniston is very much a dark pantyhose person, especially in the first seasons of the series. The look is simple but charming, and sort of punk-rockish, but cute. A simple, casual white top with USA embroidered across the chest and black miniskirt do the trick. It looks like it’s a good combination to try and catch a pigeon that flew into the apartment through an open window!
5. See-through shiny top
OMG, who doesn’t love that shirt!? That beautiful shiny see-through top that takes us back to the ’80s punk style from London has an undeniable glamorous touch. Since it’s so eye-catching, black is once again the right choice to match it with. On top of that, this beloved garment symbolizes the moment when Ross and Rachel reconcile (the first of many) in the second season.
6. Accessories are the key to pulling off any look.
When she started working in the fashion industry, Rachel’s look became even more chic and sophisticated. If we disregard the big hate-face, from the left picture, that she has when Ross brings up the Mark issue over and over again, we can really see just how gorgeous Rach looks. Pay close attention to the accessories she’s wearing: the necklace gives her a very distinctive touch. In the right picture, she even went for a tie! Super original!
7. Layered coats
Dressing in layers and wearing 2 coats is one of the best tips when winter comes and temperatures drop, but you still want to look good. As usual, dark colors prevail in Rachel’s winter outfits, and in this case, the military green coat helps her create a nice contrast.
8. Combine and conquer
It’s all in the details! In the first picture, you can see how the color of Rachel’s shirt matches perfectly with the beige embroidery of her skirt. In the second picture, the blue dress has pink flowers, which match her jacket. Those details are exactly what turns a normal outfit into a stylish, sophisticated one.
9. Lace never goes out of style.
See-through garments (especially those made with lace-like materials) never go out of style. It gives a sexy, perky touch to the whole look, while at the same time remaining elegant. Whether it’s a dress, a shirt, or a blouse, Rachel proves that she’s always a trendsetter.
10. Monochromatic looks
In a monochromatic look, your whole attire is the same color. Even the scarf! You can try imitating this look with any color, they all work. The important thing is that everything is the same shade of color and that it goes with your skin, hair, and eye color!
11. Animal print
Animal prints are a classic that linger on through time. This print can be used to take any garment to the next level, and in combination with Rachel’s long, elegant coat, we just love it — it’s amazing! It’s also nice in blouses or dresses (see the picture from season 6, on the right). Animal prints are so versatile, you can totally choose how to wear them!
12. A good pair of jeans lasts forever.
Most trends come and go, but the best ones manage to come back again, sometimes revamped. Clearly that’s not the case with jeans. Jeans are so versatile, comfortable, and practical that they match with almost everything.
13. The final look
We all remember the look Rachel chose to wear in the last episode of Friends, when she was about to leave for Paris and —spoiler alert— in the end she doesn’t. We love the black and white combination with her T-shirt (you can get the same result by wearing a white T-shirt with a black sleeveless T-shirt on top), a black miniskirt, and those sexy, elegant boots. Hats off!
Bonus
1. Top + black skirt, Demi Lovato
This outfit came back in style over the last few years. Lovato combines it with a yellow blazer to create a nice, bright contrast with the black garments, but the idea behind her outfit is the same as Rachel’s. Also, the top can be a knotted shirt or a top, whatever you like, either way, the outfit works.
2. Lace, Kylie Jenner
In this case, Kylie Jenner chose a beautiful dress with lace on the sides to draw attention to her hips. It’s super sexy, but at the same time it’s elegant. We love it!
3. Animal print, Vanessa Hudgens
We love Vanessa’s style, that dress with the matching shoes, everything in animal print is fabulous. It also shows that she is elegant because she pays close attention to detail (in this case the satin fabric and the heels give her that extra oomph).

Whether they share similar names or looks, some products can be hard to differentiate. A small mistake can confuse and surprise your taste buds. Let’s see if we can help you avoid this problem.
Bright Side chose some food pairs that get confused most often, and we can’t wait to share how you can finally tell them apart.
1. Mushroom vs toadstool
The toadstool has a rounded cap located on a stalk and it’s inedible. The mushroom takes the form of a domed cap, with gills on the other side of the cap, and it’s safe to eat. That’s why usually, people use the term “mushroom” to describe fungi that are edible, while “toadstool” refers to the kinds that are poisonous.
2. Plantain vs banana
They may look like twins, but once you taste them, you’ll notice a big difference. Plantains have a greener, tougher, larger skin than bananas, and they need to be cooked before you can enjoy them. Bananas are sweet and can be eaten as they are.
3. Noodles vs pasta
Noodles and pasta are different due to their ingredients and the way they’re processed. Noodles are made of milled flour — most commonly, wheat. And salt must be added so that it can develop softer gluten and bind the dough. However, pasta uses a coarser type of flour and is processed into stiff and dry products that later must be boiled before eating.
4. Jam vs jelly
The most significant difference between jam and jelly is how much of the original fruit is in them. Jelly is made into a smoother consistency and it’s done by crushing the fruit and throwing away the solid chunks. Jams are made by the same process but most of the pieces and seeds are left inside to give it a more spreadable consistency.
5. Peach vs nectarine
The main difference between peaches and nectarines is that they have a different coating. Peaches have fuzzy skin and nectarines have a completely smooth coating. They can be used interchangeably for cooking, but since peaches have thicker coats, they need to be peeled.
6. Prawn vs shrimp
While shrimp and prawns are similar in taste, prawns are bigger in size and that’s why they’re considered more of a delicacy. So, because shrimp is smaller, it’s cooked a bit faster and they’re more commonly found on restaurant menus. There’s a difference in their names too, as “prawn” is used primarily in the United Kingdom, and “shrimp” is used more in North America.
7. Chickpea vs soybean
First of all, chickpeas and soybeans are rich in different vitamins and minerals. However, soybeans can’t be eaten raw, even though most plant foods can. As for chickpeas, you can enjoy them in different ways and even as they are.
8. Cilantro vs parsley
Even if they look the same, parsley and cilantro are completely different herbs. Parsley has pointed leaves and a delicate flavor while cilantro has curved leaves and a more powerful flavor. The best way to choose the right one is by smelling them.
9. Gelato vs ice cream
The main ingredient that makes up these 2 desserts is cream. However, the difference is the amount of fat that is used. To make gelato, you need less cream, more milk, and no egg yolks, which is one of the most common ingredients in ice cream. Another difference is the temperature: this popular treat is served around 0ºF, and gelato, at about 15ºF.
10. Yam vs sweet potato
The terms “yam” and “sweet potato” are used interchangeably for both veggies and this has caused a lot of confusion. The difference is that yams can grow to be very large and can weigh up to a whopping 132 lb. Yams, however, are rough and have a skin that is not easy to peel, but it can be after heating. On the other hand, sweet potatoes have smooth skin that can vary in color and they are sweeter, less dry, and starchy.
11. Cupcake vs muffin
The difference between muffins and cupcakes has nothing to do with their ingredients but with their mixing methods. Cupcakes are the miniature versions of cakes while muffins are mixed using the “muffin method,” no matter the flavor. This method consists of mixing the wet and dry ingredients in different bowls and then combining them. Also, muffins have less sugar, more whole grains, and more fruit — they can also be made savory and include things like veggies and cheese.
12. Indian roti vs tortilla
Roti and tortillas have different levels of fat. The tortilla is usually made using vegetable shortening or lard, while roti uses canola or vegetable oil. Also, roti dough is rougher than tortilla dough.
13. Cucumber vs zucchini
Cucumbers are cool, waxy, and hard while zucchinis are warmer to the touch and boast a slight grittiness on their skin. Also, most cucumbers have a rough, bumpy exterior, while zucchinis always have smoother skin. When it comes to taste, you’ll know that it’s a cucumber because it has that specific crunchiness.
14. Raw sugar vs brown sugar
Raw sugar has a mild caramel taste and the crystals are a light, golden brown. On the other side, brown sugar is darker and has a stickier texture with an undeniable caramel taste.
15. Macaroons vs macarons
The macaron is originally from France and consists of 2 light biscuits with a sweet ganache between them. Macaroons, however, contain shredded coconut as well as an egg mixture, and they’re baked into a fragrant, soft cookie.

We at Bright Side found out important key points about why we should try to stay with our current partners and stop looking for a prince on a white horse.
You both change in a relationship
We all have different personalities that might even seem weird to others. But in a relationship, those personalities don’t matter anymore. This is because together we create relationship-based traits that apply to both of us. These will actually explain why fighting for your partner is a better choice than wandering around alone, looking for the right person.
You understand how happy the relationship makes your partner and you accept their commitment. You feel lucky to be with them and you know how to deal with all of your conflicts.
Different personalities make the relationship more interesting.
The difference in our traits as individuals is what makes every relationship exciting, dynamic, and edgy. Opposites attract, like extroverts and introverts, night people and morning people, planners and impulsive people, etc. For many couples, these can create a challenge, but they are still considered to be important aspects of a successful relationship.
Some couples find similar activities and different ways of spending their time together and bonding. But even if you don’t find any common interests, you can still stay together and use each other’s strengths to maintain your emotional intimacy.
Staying in a relationship means you will build even more trust and love.
When you have someone by your side, someone you can trust to support you all the way, you will have the motivation to reach any goal you set. As each year of your relationship goes by, you continue to build over your past achievements. As a result, your love will get stronger and you will be able to get the best out of your partner, and your partner from you. Your romance will create happiness, warmth, and hope.
Even when things don’t go the way you have planned, it will be a lot easier to turn things around. With an understanding partner, not only will your motivation be high, but more opportunities will open up, you will have more fun, and you may even earn more money. This can’t be attained if you stop your relationship in the middle and go on a journey to find the right partner. You will just end up needing to build trust, love, and confidence all over again.
Healthy fighting leads to better communication.
Small fights are not a reason to leave everything behind just to find the right one, who won’t fight with you. Every couple fights and if you are fighting from time to time, it shouldn’t be an issue. This is because a healthy relationship experiences this all the time.
The key is to understand how a small fight can be positive for both of you. It can give you a chance to explain how you feel, your intimacy will become stronger, and you will even learn more about your partner. But remember that fighting has its limits, it shouldn’t lead to toxic behavior and psychological or physical abuse.
You already know all the good and bad about your partner.
Starting a new relationship means that you should start learning your partner’s personality and try to tolerate the things you don’t like very much, after all, we all have negative traits. But staying in a relationship means that you already know how you both work together. Going through problems and having someone to hold hands with when you feel down can’t be done with a partner you just met. You have a romance, intimacy, and openness that you will need to build for a long time with someone new.

Remember that this is just a guide, and your particular taste and preference will define what best suits you. As a bonus, at the end of the article, we will give you some tips on how to dye your hair on your own.
Step #1: Warm or cool undertones
Invision / Invision / East News , face to face / FaceToFace / REPORTER / East News
Beauty professionals usually categorize skin tones following the classification on which the colorimetry is based: warm tones or cool tones. This classification is used to find all the colors that suit you when you get dressed, apply makeup, or choose your hair color. To detect which category you belong to, there are several quick tests: Find which colors suit you best.
Choose one pink garment and another one that is yellow. Place each one under your chin, in the light, and see which one looks better. The wrong garment will highlight your imperfections, while the right one will brighten your face.
Pink = cool tone
Yellow = warm tone
Choose one pink garment and another one that is yellow. Place each one under your chin, in the light, and see which one looks better. The wrong garment will highlight your imperfections, while the right one will brighten your face. Pink = cool tone Yellow = warm tone Choose accessories that suit you better.
The same goes for gold and silver accessories — wear both and see which one works better for your face.
Silver = cool tone
Gold = warm tone
The same goes for gold and silver accessories — wear both and see which one works better for your face. Silver = cool tone Gold = warm tone Find out the color of your veins.
Look at the veins in your wrist and detect if their color is among the blues, purples, or greens.
Purple or blue = cool tone
Green = warm tone It’s worth mentioning that there is also a neutral tone, which mixes the characteristics of a cool tone with a warm one.
Step #2: skin tones
We’ll try to classify skin tones into only 3 types: light, medium, or dark. Match your skin tone according to the image above. This is a scale of brown tones, but if your skin has other tones, you can also classify it into one of the 3 types.
Step #3: skin and eyes, and applying color according to the year’s 4 seasons
Once you’ve found the right tone and undertone of your skin, we can now add your eyes to the mix. With all these elements, we can find the classification of your natural colors in a given season so that you can identify yours and discover which hair colors suit you best.
Spring
Light or medium tone + warm undertone + light color eyes (blue, brown, green or with golden highlights) = spring Yes: Medium brown, golden or reddish colors — you can also try chocolate shades.
No: Ash or darker colors should be avoided.
Summer

Light or medium tone + cool undertone + light eyes (with blue-green or gray tones) = Summer Yes: blondes, light browns, and ash colors — as long as you add light to them. Silver or platinum blond highlights will add light to your hair, as well as dark ones (2 shades higher.)
No: ash blonde alone, as it may make your hair look dull. If you choose this shade, you should think about adding some light to it. Avoid mahogany reds, copper, and golden blonde shades; they will make you look older.

Light or medium tone + warm undertone + honey, turquoise, green or dark eyes (black or dark brown) = autumn Yes: All golden brown tones, blond or copper, as well as chocolate, mahogany, and light brown — you can choose a hair color that can be accentuated with red or mahogany tones.
No: Ash blondes since they won’t help to brighten your face.

Dark, medium, or light tone + cool undertone + very dark (black, brown or gray) or very light (blue or deep green) eyes = winter Yes: Dark colors like black, bluish-black, brown, and medium brown — you can highlight these shades with colors like bright bluish-black, purple, mahogany reflections, and ash blondes.
No: Very light golden blondes and browns dull the skin’s glow, while reddish ones could make you look older; or if you’re pink-cheeked, they’ll make you look as if you have a red tinge.

All hair colors are beautiful, and at the end of the day, you can choose whatever color you want, with or without a guide. These are just some guidelines you can follow to start experimenting. More important than the color of your hair is if you’re a nice person.
BONUS: tips for dyeing your hair yourself
Once you’ve finally chosen the hair color or colors that look best on you, it’s time to move on with the coloring process. If you are one of those people that really like to dye their hair by themselves, these tips are for you. You can be confident that by the end of this tutorial, this task will be a piece of cake!
We know you’re excited to start, but first, you should prepare yourself with the best tools for the job. Buy a dye kit — normally these contain a bowl where you can mix the dye, some gloves, and a brush. If you’re like me, you probably like to have long hair. In that case, it’s better to buy 2 dye boxes just in case 1 isn’t enough. Additionally, buy some hair clips and, last but not least, some Vaseline, as it will be a life saver.
If you’re dyeing your hair at home, it’s best to choose a color that is 2 shades darker or lighter than your natural hair. If you want to go higher or lower than that, it’s better to pay a visit to a professional. Now that we have everything we need, we can start preparing our working station.
Being comfortable is key, and if this is your first time dyeing your hair, it’s going to take some time. We don’t want accidents, so it’s better to have patience and go slow. Wear something comfy that you don’t mind getting stained because we should always prepare for the worst.
is key, and if this is your first time dyeing your hair, it’s going to take some time. We don’t want accidents, so it’s better to have patience and go slow. Wear something comfy that you don’t mind getting stained because we should always prepare for the worst. Proceed by preparing the mix. Be careful and follow the instructions in the box.
Be careful and follow the instructions in the box. The first thing you should do is apply some Vaseline to your hairline , as you don’t want to end up with a stained scalp, and this trick does wonders. You should also put on your gloves — if you don’t, your skin will get stained and it will be very difficult to wash it off.

You should also put on your gloves — if you don’t, your skin will get stained and it will be very difficult to wash it off. Don’t, under any circumstances, skip the strand test . This test will let you know if it’s safe for your hair to proceed with the dyeing process. You can pick a small strand of hair, one that can be hidden, and test the dye on it.
Make sure your hair is in the right condition to continue. You’ll be able to tell if the dye works for your hair this way. If you’re satisfied with the results, you can keep going.

Another test you shouldn’t avoid is the patch test. This test can help you to see if you have any allergic reactions to the product. It just may happen that you start to feel a burning sensation, swelling of your scalp or face, or more. If you start getting any type of reaction, it’s best to rinse the product out and contact your doctor immediately.
Use a brush to comb your hair — part it right in the middle and make 4 to 6 sections . Keep the sections out of your face with some hair clips. You need to be able to see what you’re doing, and it’s best to work in sections since, that way, the product can get to all the corners.

Now here comes the fun and difficult part. Start applying the hair color of your choice. It’s better to start at the front and work your way to the back. Take your first section and section it even more so that the product is evenly applied, as we don’t want any patchiness.
Apply the hair color with the brush, and you can spread it by combing your hair with your hands. Don’t forget to wear gloves for protection, read all the instructions in the box, and follow them perfectly. Use 2 mirrors to check on the back of your head and make sure everything is even.

Don’t forget to wear gloves for protection, read all the instructions in the box, and follow them perfectly. Use 2 mirrors to check on the back of your head and make sure everything is even. Keep track of how much time you leave the product on. The box must contain the setting instructions to guide you through the process. Set an alarm on your phone so that you don’t leave the dye in your hair for more or less time than is necessary.
During that time, you can do some of the pending chores you have, but don’t forget to carry your phone with you. The last thing you want is damaged hair.
Once the alarm goes off, you can rinse the hair color by using your sink, but to be more comfortable is better if you get into the shower. Wash your hair as you would normally do and wait till the water runs clean without a trace of the dye. While in the shower, you may also rinse any stains off your skin.
In this step, you can also ask for help, as there’s no shame in needing assistance to rinse all your hair. There might be some product left at the back that you can’t see or reach.

When we watch a movie, especially a saga that really captures our attention, it’s hard to imagine those characters donning different faces. It’s almost as if these particular actors who bring these characters to life remain forever linked to them in our memory. Just trying to imagine our favorite heroes or villains being played by someone else evokes a strange feeling. Still, we have to face the fact that directors had more than one actor to choose from when it came to casting parts. In a parallel universe, they could have easily chosen someone else to play Harry Potter or Hermione. But in this one, they didn’t.
So, here at Bright Side, we thought it’d be fun to see what the cast of the Harry Potter franchise would have looked like if directors went for other choices while casting, and this is what we found. At the end of the article, we also have a bonus feature about Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
1. Tim Roth turned down the offer to play Severus Snape because he didn’t feel ready for the role.
Severus Snape is a key character in the Harry Potter saga, and we pretty much all know that he stole everybody’s hearts. Because we have seen him from beginning to end in all the movies, it can be difficult to imagine anyone but Alan Rickman playing Severus Snape. However, Tim Roth was originally intended to play this character. The actor turned down the offer because he said he wasn’t ready to get involved in the project.
2. Hatty Jones could have been Hermione Granger, but she was a little too old to play the character.
Before Emma Watson, the actress chosen to play the book-loving witch and Harry Potter’s best friend was Hatty Jones. Back in 1998, she played Madeline in the movie of the same name. At first, the producers thought she was a good choice. However, they later thought that she was a bit too old to play Hermione so they chose Emma Watson who was only 9 years old back then.
3. Naomi Watts almost became Draco Malfoy’s mother.
Initially, the role of Draco Malfoy’s mother was rumored to go to English actress, Naomi Watts. Although she’s not even close to being a leading role, she does have some appearances that are key to the story. However, when the actress heard she was being considered, she admitted that she heard about it through the media, not from an agent, suggesting she was never seriously considered.
4. Ray Winstone could have played Alastor Moody, but he turned down the role because the filming would take too long.
Ray Winstone was the production’s first choice to play Alastor Moody, a character also known as Mad-Eye. However, as the actor himself confessed, one of the main reasons he rejected the role was because he considered it not profitable enough given the large amount of time he would take to film. As the actor very clearly put it, his main reason to become an actor was to “make a living” out of it.
5. Kate Winslet’s agent rejected the offer for her to play Helena Ravenclaw.
Kate Winslet, known worldwide thanks to her performance in Titanic, is also a winner of several prestigious awards. Initially, she had been thought of to play the modest role of the ghost of Helena Ravenclaw. Although she is not one of the main characters, she does have a very important role in the destruction of Lord Voldemort. Still, the actress didn’t even make it to the casting office since her manager turned the job down right away.
6. Hugh Grant had another film project coming up, so he couldn’t play Gilderoy Lockhart.
Although Professor Gilderoy Lockhart turns out to be a phony, we can’t deny that he is an important character. Plus, he gives a touch of fun and fanfare to the second installment of the saga. The first actor that director Chris Columbus thought of to play this role was Hugh Grant. However, he turned down the job because of other work commitments.
7. Rosamund Pike rejected the role of Rita Skeeter when she learned it would be a minor role.
Initially, actress Rosamund Pike accepted the role of Rita Skeeter, a journalist who loves gossip and intrigue and who appears for the first time in the fourth installment of the saga. However, when she learned that she would also participate in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, she turned down the job, as she was not interested in acting in both films in such a small role. That’s how Miranda Richardson got the role.
8. Rosie O’Donnell was willing to play Molly Weasley but didn’t make the cut since she wasn’t English.
Actress Rosie O’Donnell was interested in playing the role of Ron Weasley’s good-natured mother. However, just as with other actors who were willing to bring characters from the books to life in the movies, she didn’t make the cut since she wasn’t English.
9. The role of Sybill Trelawney was supposed to be played by Tilda Swinton, but she simply did not like Harry Potter, so she declined the offer.
In Tilda Swinton’s case, things were a bit different. She was offered a chance to play the role of Professor Sybill Trelawney in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Trelawney, in addition to being a teacher at Hogwarts, is a key figure in the unfolding of the story. Still, Swinton rejected the role. She later admitted she disliked Harry Potter for romanticizing boarding schools.
10. It was widely suspected that Richard E. Grant would play the dubious Lucius Malfoy, but he actually wasn’t even aware of the rumor.
When the filming of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets was about to begin, Richard E. Grant was considered to play the part of Draco Malfoy’s evil father, but it never ended up happening.
11. David Thewlis originally auditioned to play Quirinus Quirrell.
Actor David Thewlis was interested in playing a part in the Harry Potter saga since the very beginning. He auditioned for the role of Professor Quirrell but was not chosen. Although Ian Hart was picked to bring Quirrell to the big screen, Thewlis later did get the role of Remus Lupin who was also a teacher at Hogwarts.
12. Robin Williams was very enthusiastic about playing Hagrid.
When it comes to Harry’s caring ranger and faithful friend, Rubeus Hagrid, there are many rumors about how producers weighed in to have Robin Williams play the part. But in the end, they only wanted English actors, and Robbie Coltrane got the job.
13. If it weren’t for his nationality, Liam Aiken would’ve played Harry Potter.
It’s very difficult to think of the main character of the saga being played by someone other than Daniel Radcliffe. Well, brace yourself because originally, Liam Aiken was thought of to bring the wizard boy to life. As in the other casting cases, Aiken was rejected because, according to the author of the books, only British actors could take part in the movie adaptations.
Bonus: Nicholas Hoult was going to play Newt Scamander in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, but the director changed his mind.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is not part of the original saga, but it is part of the Harry Potter universe. Some of the characters of the movie even appear in both the Harry Potter movies and the prequel. The protagonist of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is wizard and magizoologist Newt Scamander. At first, the idea was for Nicholas Hoult to play the part. But in the end, director David Yates felt that Eddie Redmayne was the most suitable for the role.
