This isn't your first rodeo with Harry—you first rodeo was a wild ride called Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone. So, you know the basics—he's a wizard; he's "the boy who lived;" he's got th...

Hermione's the brains of the whole operation: she's the kind of student who gets peeved if she gets an A rather than an A+, the kind of kid who's idea of "downtime" is "putting more extracurricular...

We're not sure if it's the hormones or just fatigue at having your friend always in the spotlight, but Ron ends up at odds with Harry for a good portion of this film. Here's what happens:The Goblet...

First, some bad news: Even though Barty Junior is all over this film, we only get to see a little of the amazing David Tennant. Why? Because he's using Polyjuice Potion for basically the entire fil...

Dumbledore is everything a bright young wizard could need: smart, nurturing, calming, strict (when need be), and protective of his students. However, even he is having a hard time dealing with the,...

Lord V. doesn't make his first appearance until the movie is like 90% done, but he definitely makes a splash when he does finally show up. We mean that literally. He only comes to life after Wormta...

We're going to be honest: we're not so sure about this guy for most of the film. Sure, Dumbledore embraces Karkaroff, the headmaster at Durmstrang, when he arrives with his students for the Triwiza...

Neville is a fellow Gryffindor student, and largely seems pretty timid and tame. He's well liked, but even his friends tend to think of him as kind of…well, kind of a weenie.Case in point: with t...

Romantic RivalYes: before he was vamping it up, glittery-style in Twilight, Robert Pattinson was Harry Potter's fellow Triwizard Champion. We first meet Cedric when Harry, Hermione, and the Weasley...

Draco is Harry's nemesis at school. He doesn't play a huge role in this episode in Harry's adventures, since Harry has his hands more than full with the Triwizard Tournament. That said, Draco manag...

Viktor Krum is the champion from the Durmstrang Wizarding School—and, apparently, an amazing Quidditch player. Ron is all googly-eyed about him when they get to watch him play at the Quidditch Wo...

Barty doesn't get much back story, but here's what we do know: he's a high-up official in Ministry of Magic law enforcement, and he disavowed his very own son when it was discovered he was in leagu...

Sorry, Hagrid fans: Hagrid doesn't play a super huge part in this film. His main claim to fame? Showing Harry the dragons before the first task in the Triwizard Tournament—you know, to give him h...

Professor McGonagall is her usual strict, somewhat uptight (but still quite loveable) self in the film. She is always willing to lay down the hammer with students, but she's also fiercely protectiv...

Ah, Snape—he's so scary and mean to the Gryffindors, but we have a soft spot for the grump (or maybe it's just for the late Alan Rickman…hard to say). But anyway, as in the rest of the series,...

As we know from previous films, Wormtail is the guy who betrayed Harry's parents when they were hiding from Voldemort. He has been helping the Dark Lord ever since, apparently, and in this film he...

From the googly eyes Cho and Harry are making at each other on the train to Hogwarts at the beginning of the film, we are guessing that these two want to become more than friends/fellow students. H...

The man we think is Mad-Eye Moody for most of the film turns out to be Barty Crouch Jr. in disguise. The real Mad-Eye only appears in one flashback and then at the very end, locked in a trunk in hi...

Draco's daddy is about as warm and cuddly as the younger Malfoy. Like Draco, he's snobby and haughty, and he's definitely sympathetic to the Dark Lord. One of the big cornerstones of Voldemort's wh...

Sirius is Harry's godfather. He doesn't really appear in the film per se, except as a face in the Gryffindor common room's fireplace, but he manages to offer Harry some advice/words of wisdom in th...

Moaning Myrtle is one of Hogwarts' many ghostly residents. She tends to float around in the castle's bathrooms (she died in one as a student) and chat with the students when they go in there. She d...

Madame Maxime is the extremely tall headmistress from the Beauxbatons Wizarding School. Hagrid takes a shine to her and her statuesque figure, and the two seem to have quite a flirtation going thro...

Padma and Parvati are twin sisters, and they're Ron and Harry's dates to the Yule Ball. That's pretty much their role in this particular film (and they do not even have a good time at the dance, th...

The man with the most unfortunate name in the Wizarding World is also the Minister of Magic—you know, like the Prime Minister, but for wizards. He doesn't have a lot to do in Goblet of Fire, but...

Fleur is the superfoxy Triwizard Champion from Beauxbatons. She doesn't get a ton to do in the film, sadly. She's not really very effective in the tournament, as she fails the second and third task...

Rita is a "reporter" for The Daily Prophet (a.k.a. the paper of choice for all things wizardly). But those scare quotes are important, because she's more about sensation and gossip than actual repo...
