So who did Peter Mullan play in «Harry Potter,» exactly? He played Corban Yaxley, a member of the Dark Lord Voldemort’s army of Death Eaters (Voldemort was played by several actors throughout the series, with Ralph Fiennes opposite Mullan as the villain). Luckily for Mullan, considering that he clearly didn’t enjoy his time in the «Potter» films, he only appeared in the first half of the final installment, «Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows — Part 1.» (Yaxley’s character does appear more in the books, but it makes sense that many of his other appearances were cut from the films for brevity).
Yaxley is sort of a run-of-the-mill Death Eater where the group is concerned; he, like many other Death Eaters, disavows Voldemort when the Dark Lord disappears, only to beg for forgiveness from his master upon his return. He most prominently appears in «Deathly Hallows — Part 1» during the sequence where Harry (Daniel Radcliffe), Hermione Granger (Emma Watson), and Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint) consume Polyjuice Potion and infiltrate the Ministry of Magic to track down one of Voldemort’s Horcruxes. It’s too bad he apparently didn’t enjoy the experience.
