In a new interview with the
Oxford Mail to promote her role as Desdemona in
Othello, Natalia Tena (Tonks) discusses Harry Potter, whether she's in
Deathly Hallows and fan mail.
Talking about the phenomenom surrounding the novels, Natalia admits she wasn't instantly won over;
Quote:
“No, I wasn’t into the whole Harry Potter thing when I got the part, but I did fancy being a witch,” she admits.
“So I thought I’d better read the book for the audition and then I got it and got what all the fuss was about and now I’m really into it.”
Natalia admits that she doesn't know yet if she'll be in the seventh movie;
Quote:
“Well, I’m in the sixth one. And I haven’t heard about the seventh one yet, although Tonks features a lot in the book, but that doesn’t always translate to the film.”
She also talks about getting letters from fans;
Quote:
“I’m not very good at dealing with stuff like that, so I just carry my fan mail round with me in a big bag meaning to answer it but never getting round to it,” she laughs, “but now I only reply to them if they send an SAE, because it actually gets quite expensive after a while.”
She is soon to star in the sold-out
Othello at the
Oxford Playhouse, which begins its run on Tuesday. A photo of Natalia in the play can be seen
