| | |  Professor Umbridge has been cast!
It was previously rumoured that Imelda Staunton was to play Professor Umbridge in ' Order of the Phoenix'.
The actress appeared on ' This Morning' earlier today and confirmed that she will play the Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor in the fifth film. She said that she has not yet received a script but that she is definitely going to be in the film.
The news is also confirmed on the shows website: Quote: Harry Potter
Imelda plays Professor Dolores Umbridge, the special assistant from the Ministry of Magic who ends up torturing the famous boy wizard at Hogwarts. Umbridge is meant to teach Defence Against The Dark Arts to Hogwarts students, but she has a hidden agenda - namely to spy on the school's head, Albus Dumbledore, and Harry. Fans of the fifth Harry Potter book, The Order Of The Phoenix, in which Professor Umbridge is introduced, love to loathe her. Described by author J. K. Rowling as a short, squat woman bearing an uncanny resemblance to a toad, she's a much-celebrated hate figure.
| Note: This would have been up MUCH earlier if SS hadn’t died on us. Sorry for the apparent ‘lateness’. The irony being we were actually one of the first sites to know about it. *grumbles and kicks the server*  | |

Gahhhh.. This is crazy! They're already torturing us with information about the fifth movie, and we're already tortured enough with stuff about the fourth!
And darn the server. LoL..

That's great news (though I already had read them  )  I'm sure she'll make a great job at playing a nasty professor! | |

I'm pleased with their choice, even though its not my preference. It could have been worse if you think about it. | |

She isn't even in the umbridge costume yet.. is she? Where is she in the make up and stuff? All I saw where pictures from her other movies.
O_o
Although, I can see why they picked her.... she seems to be a very seasoned actress. | |

Well production hasn't begun on OotP yet so you can't expect to see her as the character. | |
