Alan Rickman as Severus Snape

7 Reasons to Love Alan Rickman

You don’t really need to be given reasons to love Alan Rickman, but I’m going to list some anyway. Aside from the multiple moving characters he’s portrayed both on the stage and big screen, he also has a sense of humor. Trust me; there are hundreds of reasons to adore him. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

  1. He’s wise.
    “I’ve never been able to plan my life. I just lurch from indecision to indecision.”
  2. He rocked that Severus Snape wig like a boss.
  3. He pulled this prank on Daniel Radcliffe.
  4. He caught Rupert Grint making fun of him and kept the evidence.
  5. He provided the voice for Marvin in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, and Warwick Davis wore the robotic suit for the character. The two later got to both play Professors in the eight Harry Potter movies.
  6. J.K. Rowling wrote the character of Severus Snape with Rickman in mind, and he was her first choice to play the character in the movies.
  7. He has the perfect forehead for this alien headgear.
