Harry Potter star Martin Bayfield has revealed how he 'almost killed' Verne Troyer while filming the first entry in the fantasy franchise.
Actor Verne Troyer appeared in the first Harry Potter film A stunt double from the Harry Potter franchise has revealed how he almost killed actor Verne Troyer in an on-set accident. Actor, stuntman, and former rugby union player Martin Bayfield appeared in all seven Harry Potter films as Rubeus Hagrid, standing in for actor Robbie Coltrane.
After first appearing in the film sequel The Spy Who Shagged Me , Troyer went on to appear in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone , the fantasy film The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus , and the Austin Powers sequel Goldmember. Although he appeared as goblin Griphook in the first Harry Potter film, the character was actually voiced by Warwick Davis – due to the ruling that characters should only have English accents.
