20 Best Performances In The Wizarding World Franchise

14. Robbie Coltrane - Rubeus Hagrid

Harry Potter Voldemort
Warner Bros

Hagrid, the loveable half-giant who has dealt with prejudice all his life, is one of the series' most iconic and compelling characters, and Robbie Coltrane more than did him justice.

He absolutely radiated warmth from the word 'Go' and made Hagrid one of the franchise's most charming characters, while he also had great comedic timing and could be badass when he needed to be.

It's a shame that Hagrid started to fade into the background a bit as the films went on, but Coltrane never lost his edge. It'd be great if Robbie Coltrane got the chance to reprise the role one day, for he was a perfect Rubeus Hagrid.
