I wanted Wendi Peters from Corrie but I must admit Imelda definitely looks the part (sorry if that's actually an insult!).

I think she definitely looks the part. I can see that toad-like grin...(like Emma, this isn't supposed to be an insult)
I almost hope she does get the role now...she looks great for the part!

I'm not familar with her work either, but if the rumor is true, I think she'd be a good Umbridge. More in an acting way than a physical appearence way tho!

She looks like she would fit. A little bit of make up and she is Umbridge, at least physically, because I'm not familiar with her work.

If it were true it would be great because she definately looks the part. Look on the bright side, at least it's not The Sun. 
Guess we'll just wait and see.

I have no doubt that shes a great actress, but she doesn't look like how i imagined umbridge. to be honest, if u look at professor sprout in the films, a slight variation on her would be perfect for dolores.

Not exactly what I would've expected Umbridge to look like, but if it turns out that she's playing the part I can't wait to see how the film turns out!

I can see it, definitely. And I remember her as The Nurse in Shakespeare In Love, so she could pull Umbridge off no doubt... and I'm sure they can do wonders with make-up any ways if need be. | |
