Harry Potter heartthrob unrecognisable on Cameo with huge beard and tattoos
The Harry Potter star who played Viktor Krum in the franchise looks completely different after cropping up on video sharing site Cameo.
Fans can use the site to connect with their favourite celebs and ask them to record a personalised message - for a price. But Stanislav Yanevski, who played Quidditch star Krum in Harry Potter and the Goblet Fire is pretty much unrecognisable. Of course - most people will look different after 20 years, but Yanevski has morphed from the clean-shaven love interest of Hermione Granger into a bearded, tattooed and ripped fitness enthusiast.
The Bulgarian actor was a youthful 20-year-old when the 2005 film was released, and now, aged 38 he is looking a lot more rugged, and describes himself as an actor and an adventurer in his Instagram bio. For the reasonable price of £29, fans can get a Cameo video from Yanevski, who is rated 4.98 out of five on the site.
Stanislav alongside Emma Watson in Harry Potter (Warner Bros. Pictures.)He regularly shares updates of his adventures around the world, where he's often seen with a mountain bike or perfecting his physique in the gym with his 230,000 followers. He also still acts and has appeared in films including Resistance, The 11th Grade and Last Man Down.
Stanislav makes it clear that he is proud of his Harry Potter experience, and is often seen at conventions relating to the film, including WizardCon in Dublin. In April 2022 he shared a photo of himself wearing the Harry Potter sorting hat. He wrote: "True friends are never apart, maybe in distance but never in heart."

Stanislav describes himself as an 'adventurer' (@stan_yanevski/Instagram)Given the Harry Potter cast were all so young when they first rose to fame, it's no surprise they have all had huge transformations over the last 20 odd years.
Another of the franchise's stars - Jamie Waylett who played Vincent Crabbe in all six of the movies - was also spotted on Cameo. He had tough few years after making a name for himself in the films, when he was sacked by Harry Potter bosses when he was caught growing cannabis in his home.
After being sentenced to 120 hours community service, he was convicted of violent disorder in 2012 and was jailed for two years. He was seen swigging champagne from a stolen bottle during the London riots and was pictured holding a petrol bomb, although he was cleared of intending to destroy or damage property.
He's now turned his life around but looks totally different from his Vincent Crabbe days. In his Cameo intro video, he has a face tattoo and beard. He jokes to fans that he's still a Slytherin, saying: "What's going on people, it's your boy Jamie Waylett. I played Vincent Crabbe in the Harry Potter movies one to six and I'm very excited to have the opportunity to give the people and loved ones in your life that you care about a special message. That's it from me, I look forward to hearing from you. Slytherin for life."
