| | | Helen McCrory is Narcissa Malfoy for Half-Blood Prince! CBBC Newsround, through exclusive information, have confirmed that Helen McCrory has been cast as Narcissa Malfoy in the next film, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince!
The actress is known for her roles in The Count of Monte Cristo, The Queen, Casanova and Becoming Jane.
McCrory was originally cast as Bellatrix Lestrange for Order of the Phoenix, but had to decline the role because she was pregnant. Quote:
With filming under way on the sixth Harry Potter film, Newsround can exclusively reveal that actress Helen McCrory will play Narcissa Malfoy.
The Potter team have been after her for a while.
Now she's set to play Draco's mother and Bellatrix Lestrange's sister, who's played by Helena Bonham Carter.
Now the two will end up playing sisters in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
Pictures of Helen can be seen here and below;
They also report: Quote:
An announcement on who will play young Tom Riddle and Lavender Brown is expected very soon.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is in the process of filming and is due in theatres on November 21, 2008! |

If this is true, can't wait to see her in HBP  There's no "if" about it. Newsround usually make these sorts of announcements. It's official.

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.

Whoever the casting director for the HP films is they deserve a pat on the back. They repeatedly pick the best people for every role.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Roman J. Lupin First Year | GLEEk Magic Picture Finder Wow, I did not picture her at all. She has such a dark complexion it's going to look weird her being blonde. I pictured Naomi Watts in the role of Narcissa, not her! And I thought there was talk for her in the role.

Naomi Watts was not a proper report, it was a rumor.
Anyways, I have to agree with Quote:

as they really do choose the parts so well!
can't wait to see her and can't wait for Tom Riddle and Lavender Brown
