| | |  Jason Isaacs, Its obscene that I get paid!
In an interview about his new play The Dumb Waiter, HP actor Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy) equates playing the evil character to his daughter playing dress-up. Quote:
It's obscene that I get paid. People should complain. I've got a four-year-old, she's got a dress-up box in her room and nothing touches Lucius Malfoy. She's got fairies and wizards and witches and superheroes, and nothing touches it.
I get there and I say 'Can I have a cane with a wand inside it? Can I have a cape? Do you think I could have a belt with a snake's head on it? Do you think I can blast that wall and it blows open and I walk through it?' It's absurd a man of my age doing that stuff.
And then you get there and realise you're doing scenes with Gary Oldman and Helena Bonham Carter. I look at the call sheet and they're going to be there today, I'm going to get to talk to them. Before you know it you're having lunch and sharing HP sauce. It's fantastic.
If you're someone like me, who finds work enjoyably tortured I'm constantly niggling away trying to make it better and realer and more three-dimensional it's nice to leave all that at home and turn up at Harry Potter and just be unalloyed Nazi evil.
The Dumb Waiter is currently playing in London at Trafalgar Studio 1 through March 27.  | |

It is obscene that he is gettng paid, in the sense that he absolutely LOVES what he's doing. How fun would it be to be a cast member of the film? Even just a extra? How incredible would it be? having the time of your life, and getting paid to do it.

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

I remember his role in the American drama the Patroit with Mel Gibson. He was great it as an evil Brit Officer who murders Gibson's young son and others in the name of the crown. I hated the charrie but loved how Jason played it. He is so good at evil roles.
