| | | Timothy Spall loves playing Peter Pettigrew
Timothy Spall, known for playing Wormtail, recently did an interview with The Times of India on his appearances in Sweeney Todd and Harry Potter. He started off by discussing what it was like working with Johnny Depp, then moved on to reveal that he completely loves playing the villain. Quote: What do you look for in a role?
I look for roles that stimulate my appetite for good work and stir the actor within. But more than anything else, I absolutely love playing evil and disgusting characters. They evoke a stronger reaction than good characters and to bring about a certain meanness is more challenging for an actor. I love being hated and look forward to people coming up to me and telling me what an evil man I am (laughs). Like your character Peter Pettigrew in the Harry Potter series?
Yes, very much like that. That was again one role I’m going to cherish forever. Though my grandchildren hoped that I’d not betrayed the Potters. But I am proud of that role and my grandchildren are proud that their grand-dad is a part of the Potter family.

Interesting. He doesn't seem to be the evil character type though really. *Points at him as Mr. Poe*

From a removed perspective, Pettigrew IS an amazing character. He's so deep -- he's weak and strong, he's evil and yet also softens, and he has really, really interesting scenes in the book. I'm sure he feels lucky to play him!! Even if he is such an awful guy, lol.

I'm glad he enjoys playing the role. He certainly is excellent in it!
Timothy is a really good actor. He was outstanding in Enchanted, as well!
