Theo Walcott's wife Melanie 'lands role in Harry Potter prequel'

Theo Walcott's wife Melanie reportedly lands a film role in the Harry Potter prequel Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them.

The wife of Arsenal star Theo Walcott has reportedly landed a role in JK Rowling's Harry Potter prequel.

Melanie, who gave birth to the couple's son Finley in April last year, is due to play an extra in new film Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them.

According to The Mirror, the 25-year-old physiotherapist, who had a helping hand from film director David Yates - the partner of Walcott's aunt Yvonne - will film a crowd scene later this week in London.

Melanie has already ventured into the Harry Potter franchise as she had a small speaking part in Deathly Hallows: Part One.
