| | |  Shirley Henderson gives an interview about GoF and Potter
About has an interesting interview with Shirley Henderson who plays Moaning Myrtle in the Potter films dsicsussing the franchise and filming for the upcoming fourth installment, 'Goblet of Fire'. Quote:
I was surprised to hear Shirley Henderson would return for another Harry Potter film. I thought her role as Moaning Myrtle in Chamber of Secrets was pretty specific to that one story. I hadn’t read the books, so I didn’t know the future stories, but when Henderson announced during an interview for Intermission that she was returning for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, I pursued a line of questioning. Here is the Harry Potter portion of the interview.
Quote: You’re doing another Harry Potter?
The next one, yeah, I start filming the next one soon. Moaning Myrtle.
Quote: Is Harry Potter just a big special effects machine?
It is, yeah.
My stuff is obviously special effects because I’m being a ghost, but I do have to do all this flying through the air, in these awful contraptions, and it’s rigorous, it’s quite hard work.
Quote: You’re in the fourth but no the third?
Myrtle’s not in the third, but she pops up in Harry’s bath in the fourth one.
Quote: Is it a smaller or bigger role than Chamber of Secrets?
I don’t know because I haven’t seen a script yet. I’m waiting on that to arrive.
Quote: How do you play a little girl when you’re 37?
It’s just how people see you. I think age doesn’t come into acting. I think it’s how you look, and how you look on screen, how your body’s changing, how your face is developing, how each casting director sees you.
I mean, obviously I would never get a 14-year-old who wasn’t a ghost. I wouldn’t have been a real schoolgirl in Harry Potter. It’s ridiculous.
It’s only because she’s a ghost, and she’s quite pale, and has a strange voice, and she’s old and everything, so with that, that’s a one-off, that’s a different thing altogether.
Quote: How important is it to be a part of Harry Potter as far as British culture goes?
I don’t know how important it is, but I feel very lucky. I feel very privileged. It’s surprising to me top be a part of something like that. I can’t quite believe it really.

Note: The bathroom scene has been shot however she does them separately to the rest of the cast as her acting is all in front of a blue/green screen. So, Dan may have done his bit, but she might've not done hers.

37? But make-up can cover a multitude of sins! She is brilliant as Moaning Myrtle, very convincing

I think the fact she is see-through helps with her not looking 37.
ooh maybe Nivea should consider this...
