Video: Jason Isaacs talks Lucius Malfoy & success of Harry Potter series
Jason Isaacs was recently interviewed by
CNN on his body of work, most specifically the
Harry Potter series, in which he plays sinister Death Eater Lucius Malfoy. Many of the fan questions sent in were about working on the Harry Potter films set and playing the dark wizard.
Jason admitted that he tried out for the Gilderoy Lockhart role in
Chamber of Secrets , as well as Lucius (though is more grateful for getting the latter role). He said the best bits are off-camera, working with great actors like Michael Gambon, Maggie Smith, Richard Harris, Gary Oldman, and Bill Nighy, to name a few.
He said that work on the
Harry Potter films is relatively easy for him, and that the biggest challenge is in keeping the wig up and act.
Jason joked that he was bitter and jealous that he never got a scene in
Half-Blood Prince , but voiced his overall joy at being a part of the series.
If Jason were Lucius Malfoy for a day, he said he'd go around killing Muggles. If Jason were to meet Lucius, he might just shave off the long blond locks.
