MTV’s Harry Potter World Cup has 64 of the best “Harry Potter” characters and matched them up in a series of duels for a chance at magical glory, but it’s up to YOU to decide who the greatest “Potter” character of all time is in this pool of wizards and witches.
Cedric Diggory, the late Hogwarts student who competed nobly and died tragically during the Triwizard Tournament, has entered the Harry Potter World Cup. Perhaps more importantly, however, is the fact that Robert Pattinson has stepped into the arena. Next to him, fan-favorite witch Luna Lovegood has also kicked off her first round match-up in the Hogsmeade division, which wraps up on Sunday (June 27) at midnight.
(3) Cedric Diggory vs. (14) Olympe Maxime
Let’s not beat around the bush: if Cedric Diggory advances deep into the Hogsmeade division, is it because of his merits as a character or his alter-ego’s superstar status? No doubt that his death in “Goblet of Fire” was a profoundly powerful moment that irreversibly changed the course of the “Potter” story, but is that where he’ll get his support, or will voters sink their teeth into Cedric for “other reasons”?
And as far as Madame Maxime is concerned, is the Beauxbatons giant tall enough to stand up against the height of the “Twilight” crowd? The outcome of this match-up could be very telling for the rest of the World Cup — with enough momentum on his side, Cedric could become the most unstoppable force in the entire tournament.
SO GO VOTE FOR CEDRIC NOW!!
