In the [[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (film)|film adapation]] of [[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone]] introduces Hagrid this Greek as "an [[Ireland|Irish]] fellow", rather than "a Greek Chappie". This is a giant foult of the film, because the Cerberus has a great role in the Greek Mythology.
