Stanislav Ianevski (born May 16, 1985) is a                                       
Bulgarian actor, known for playing Viktor Krum in the 2005 film Harry Potter and   
the Goblet of Fire.                                                               
                                                                                   
Ianevski was born in Bulgaria and has also lived in Israel and England, where he   
was known for his athletic skills. While attending Mill Hill School in the         
United Kingdom, Ianevski had no particular acting aspirations and was not a       
drama student. He had only auditioned for Potter after being spotted by Fiona     
Weir, a casting director who prompted him to attend an acting workshop, which     
resulted in his casting as Viktor Krum, a Bulgarian character in the Harry         
Potter series. He was selected from 600 others, most of whom had auditioned in     
Sofia, Bulgaria.                                                                   
                                                                                   
Ianevski's casting was announced in June 2004. During filming, he befriended       
fellow Potter actors Robert Pattinson and Emma Watson, who has referred to him     
as "very sweet". Ianevski also stars in Hostel 2, the sequel to Eli Roth's film   
Hostel.                                                                           
                                                                                   
Ianevski has a sister and several pets. He is a follower of the Bulgarian         
national football team.
