Jim Tavaré played one of the numerous oddball supporting characters in the Harry Potter franchise, and many fans were shocked when he faced a brush with death earlier this month.
The actor/comedian, who played Tom the Innkeeper in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, was sent to the ICU after being in a head-on car crash that nearly took his life.

TMZ reports that his dog was in the vehicle at the time of the accident but remained virtually unharmed.
