One of the stars of the International Comic Salon Malaga was Natalia Tena, the actress who portrays Tonks in the last four films of the Harry Potter saga, including the two parts of 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows', to debut soon.
Tena, who have parents [emigrated] but has grown in Britain, plays a witch who can take the form of anything at any time. "If I had that power would transform me into an otter, because I love the water," she said.
No wonder the claim because the liquid element appears to be present in many moments of her life. In fact, she came directly from the beach with flip flops and her clothing still wet. Still, she was "delighted to be with these people" and agreed to take photos with all of her fans.
The role of Tonks in Harry Potter came after spending time on the beach, but this time the coast of Ireland. "When I got up that morning I had the feeling that my agent would call me."
Tena has recalled the "fun" was the shooting in which "ate, smoked and chatted" with all the actors in the hope "that could be every day." Also, she said with praised, "I loved the make-up staff."
Although their participation in the series is "something very big and exciting," Tena has been happy with the fact that it is the end and she has time "to do other things."
| Nat and her band Molotov Jukebox were also interviewed last week by This Message Will Self-Destruct blog, and mentioned what working with Daniel Radcliffe and on-screen husband David Thewlis was like. Quote:
As well as keeping people’s feet busy, Natalia has also starred in Harry Potter (amongst other things). What was it like working with those folk and is Daniel Radcliffe really a sexually dubious mummy’s boy as per his Extras appearance?
Nat: I got to pick my wand! It was very early mornings and lots of waiting interspersed with catching lots of jokes and riding on brooms. Daniel is banging and has enough energy to power rush-hour. The make-up ladies have brilliantly naughty laughs, especially Amanda and Sarah.
My werewolf husband in it, David Thewlis, reduced me to tears of hysteria various times before takes which were meant to be taken seriously and somewhere in Leavesden Studio is a plaster cast of my [bum]. Oh and Brendan Gleeson has the best hug, big arms you see.
We GOT TO PLAY THE WRAP PARTY!!!!! It was at the studio this summer, outside and just before we started playing the sky [hit] us with rain but it worked in our favour as everyone got on stage with us for cover and danced the [hell] out of it with us. There was a fairground for [eff's] sake!!!! Epic. I wore blindness-inducing pink with lashes to match and the boys scrubbed up like desperate hookers. Burgers were good too.
| Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be released November 19, 2010 and July 15, 2011. |
