| | | Has Bellatrix Lestrange been cast? The Daily Mirror are today reporting that Helen McCrory has 'been lined up to play evil Bellatrix Lestrange in the next Harry Potter film.' Quote:
A source revealed: "The producers are trying to keep the cast a secret until it's all sealed. But they are really keen on Helen.
"They think she has the gravitas and looks to pull off the part of Bellatrix."
A picture of Helen can be seen here.
Bear in mind nothing is official yet.

Hmm. Which actually is all I can come up with because if it is true, I'd have to really see her as Bellatrix before making a decision.

| Yeah, well.I dont know. I mean, not the way I had imagined Bellatrix. But if she's got it, maybe then so. I have never seen her act, but if she's THAT good, then so be it. But we know that it may not be official.

Bella is supposed to be older than Snape/Lupin/Sirius/James. http://www.hp-lexicon.org/wizards/bellatrix.html
Bella joined the DE's when the Marauders were at school. She's meant to be older than Snape, Lupin, Sirius and James. Who, incidentally, are all played by actors between their 40's and 60's. And this woman is 35. Can't see it working although she definitely looks like she could be Bella. Quote:

That rumour was shot down months ago thank goodness.

I still want them to cast Harriet Walter.

No because as far as we know, none have officially signed.

Helen is a nice choice but I read a news in a magzine in March that Elizbeth Hurley is going to play the roll of Bellatrix in the next movie.

I always thought of her as once having been beautiful. Faded beauty but still nevertheless still that 'something' there. Like Madame Rosmerta.

She's OK. Never saw her acting but I hope she does it fine.

I think she suits the role. I've seen her in a movie and she was really good.

She can look like bellatrix...with alot of make up and stuff I guess. I certainly didn't imagine Bellatrix like that though.
I wonder who they'll cast as Luna and Narcissa....

Well from looks she could anyway. I have never seen her act so I don't know how she is in the aspect, but she can definitely do it look wise.

I expected Bella to have very deepset, hallow-looking eyes since she's been in Azkaban.
That's just me, though.
I suppose Helen McCrory isn't too bad, though. I'd have too see her act, which I haven't, to really judge her.

Hmm....she seems ok, though I'd have to see her acting first. I can't really remember her from The Count of Monte Cristo, and I haven't seen the other films she took part in.
