Edward Randell
Edward Keith Randell (born 2 July 1988) is an English musician and actor, who is perhaps best known for his acting work in the Harry Potter film series and as a bass for the noted international vocal group The Swingle Singers. His first professional acting role was in the 2002 film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, in which he played wizard and Hogwarts student Justin Finch-Fletchley, a member of Hufflepuff and initially a friend of Harry's. His character is then threatened by a snake, under the presumed influence of Harry (who communicated in Parseltongue), and is later found petrified.
