Stephen Fry does Hagrid's voice so well that when I first listened to his audiobooks I actually thought it was Robbie Coltrane narrating before I read the name of the narrator.
@jwl00066
me too!
@whistlingbanshee5038
I forget what character it was but at one point, I was certain that it was Hugh Laurie talking not Stephen Fry
@zackkrasney1936
Me too! I had to google it.
@notorio526
The audiobooks predate the film. Coltrane was inspired by Fry's Hagrid.
@Sovek86
I had no idea what Hagrids actor name so when I listened to book 1 I had to goog the actor just to make sure stephen Fry wasnt the actor for hagrid
