A British teenage actor playing a minor role in the upcoming Harry Potter film was stabbed to death outside a Kent nightclub in London on Saturday.18-year-old Harry Potter actor Robert Knox was trying to defend his younger brother from a man with a knife.

Knox plays Ravenclaw student Marcus Belby in the upcoming film “Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince”, the sixth installment of the Harry Potter series set for release in November.

Warner Bros., the studio that is producing the film, said it was shocked by the news.

His father have spoken out about the popular youngster described by his father as “an angel on Earth without wings”.

Sally and Colin Knox said they hope Robert’s screen profile – he appears in the new Harry Potter flick – will help highlight the increase in knife crime. “If it serves that purpose, then Robert will have done something else exceptional in his short life,” says Colin.

After locking eyes with a mystery lady at Australia’s film industry awards in December 2006, Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe put out an appeal with an Aussie newspaper to find my mystry girl. Now the gorgeous blond has been revealed as Cassi McKay, a 20-year-old insurance worker from Sydney.

Actor Daniel say that he struggles to find a girlfriend because he is wary of “gold diggers”, revealed this week that after spotting the pretty stranger backstage at the awards he wandered around for an hour “like some sad pathetic dweeb” as he tried to find her.

Interesting thing is that CassiMcKay has already a boyfriend in her homeland. She says she would love to meet up with the wizard actor to say hello when she visits London later in the year. “I’ve read all the Harry Potter books and I’m a big fan,” she said. “I was a bit star struck. It was like he cast a spell on me.”

It seems that the ladies have a magnetic attraction to the hunky 18-year-old actor. Savannah Blout, a 23-year-old brunette saxophonist from Melbourne, has also come forward to claim the title of Daniel’s mystery woman. “He was quite lovely,” she revealed. “He was very charming and polite.”
