The Boat That Rocked star, who confirmed his involvement earlier this month, told BBC Newsround that he was "very pleased" to be joining the magical franchise.
"I am in the next Harry Potter. I will be Rufus Scrimgeour, who is the Minister of Magic and he is a very, very important man," he said.
"I am no longer the only English actor not to be in Harry Potter and I am very pleased!"
Nighy is expected to begin filming his role in the two-part Deathly Hallows within the next few weeks.
