Jason Carter for Sirius Black!


Jason Carter is an experienced actor with a long career on both sides of the Atlantic (see his IMDb listing). From his role as Ranger Marcus Cole on J. Michael Straczynski's Babylon 5, Jason has acquired a loyal and enthusiastic fan following, not just in the U.S. but anywhere the show has aired.

Harry Potter fandom has become huge on the Internet, and so has talking about Harry Potter. When the announcement that a feature film series would be made from the extremely popular novels, many media-minded fans' thoughts turned to casting -- and promptly to Jason Carter. Although many 'superstar' names have been bandied about as fantasy casting, no other British actor who has such excellent cross-Atlantic exposure has had his name brought up quite so often in serious discussion.

Please follow this link to the flyers distributed at Dragon*Con, ConCept 2002, and other conventions, and for some virtual buttons.  Follow this link -- UPDATED DECEMBER 9! -- for contact addresses for the people who need letters directed to them.

Who is Sirius Black?  Find out here, in excerpts from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.  All rights reserved to J.K. Rowling, Bloomsbury Publishing and Scholastic Press.

Here's an example of Jason's uncanny resemblance to Sirius -- Kristin is a fanartist who's going to become an art professional.  Here's an excerpt from her on-line journal with visual proof.  Kristin's work was done in September of 2002, long before she found out about this casting letter campaign.  (Her Harry Potter gallery can be found at The Chamber of Keys.)

    Below are some mini-posters to promote a letter-writing campaign to people who are in a position to get Jason the role he -- and we -- deserve:

    Perfect Casting Choice (colour) - thumbnail B5 ISN Tabloid (colour) - thumbnail WANTED! poster (colour) - thumbnail

    Please click on the image to go to the larger version.


    These are black&white (greyscaled) versions which take to copying for distribution better than the colour renditions.  There are two sets because the sets of addresses printed on the front are different (different order):

    FRONT: Casting Director on front (pick one): Perfect Casting Choice (B&W) - thumbnail B5 ISN Tabloid (B&W) - thumbnail WANTED! Poster (B&W) - thumbnail BACK: Flyer back - Jason's agent and URL - thumbnail

    FRONT: Casting Director on back (pick one): Perfect Casting Choice (B&W) - thumbnail B5 ISN Tabloid (B&W) - thumbnail WANTED! Poster (B&W) - thumbnail BACK: Flyer back - casting director and URL - thumbnail

    Please click on the image to go to the larger version.


    I have a separate page for buttons, banners and/or animations which I've been making.  They're separate because they take a little longer to load.  Please feel free to add them to your .sig files or webpages.  New banners added December 3!

    (I think I'm hooked on these things....)


    Thank you for your interest.
