  • Zoe Wanamaker who played Madam Hooch was born in America but had been acting in Britain for a long time and her character was an adult which meant it was likely she would travel for work or move country.
  • Christopher Columbus - the director of the first two films - put several of his family members into the films. All of them were American however they did not have speaking roles.
  • Verne Troyer played Griphook in the first movie, although the character was voice by Warwick Davis, a British actor who played Flitwick in all the movies and Griphook in the last one.

Other than that no because all other actors must be British. See related questions for more information.

All the actors are British or Irish with the exception of a few people without speaking roles who are American (and children of the director) and Clemence Poesy and Stanislav Ianevski who characters were from France and Bulgaria.

All Harry Potter cast members had to be British or Irish. The only exceptions were characters from other countries and Zoe Wanamaker who moved to England when she was young.

Some of the extras were also American, so long as they didn't have any lines.

Zoë Wanamaker, who played Madam Hooch, was born American, but raised British. Verne Troyer, who played a goblin in the first film, was American, but his voice was dubbed over by British actor Warwick Davis. American director Chris Columbus cast his daughter Eleanor in the non-speaking role of Susan Bones. That's pretty much it.
