Nope, Gandalf is played by Ian McKellen!. Dumbledore has been played by both Richard Harris and Michael Gambon after Harris passed away!.

When asked if he would have taken on the role after Harris died, McKellen replied with:

People say to me, don't you wish you'd played Dumbledore!? I say no! I played Gandalf! The original!. There was a question as to whether I might take over from Richard Harris, but seeing as one of the last things he did publicly was say what a dreadful actor he thought I was, it would not have been appropriate for me to take over his part!. It would have been unfair!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Nope theyre different!. But the new Dumby SUX!! the old one was waaay better honestly do you know the part in the fourth book were hes like "HARRY POTTER" in such a loud voice it deafened me!!

Hope I helped
