| | |  JK Rowling comments on Hagrid and Robbie Coltrane for ITV Special
JK Rowling is among those who have been interviewed for a special to be broadcast on ITV about actor Robbie Coltrane. Robbie will be a guest for an in-depth interview on the South Bank Show where the actor discusses depression, fame, working with actress Emma Thompson (Trelawney) and the impact she had on his career, as well as commenting on his role as Hagrid.
JK is interviewed for this special and she talks about the casting of Robbie Coltrane for the part of the Hogwart's groundskeeper.
In a special online preview Jo is quoted by the Manchester Evening News as saying:
Quote:
When we came to the point where there was even a possibility of Hagrid appearing on screen, I do remember thinking, 'Well, that's Robbie Coltrane.'
Quote:
Hagrid is very lovable but he must, if he's to be plausible, have a centre of menace as well.
The South Bank Show will air tonight on ITV1 at 11:10pm in the UK and features comments from Emma Thompson as well as those from JK mentioned above.

I've never thought of Hagrid as menacing but I guess he is a bit with his love for dangerous creatures and being a half giant.

I believe by "centre of menace" she means there has to be the potential for something not so nice. Obviously, being a half-giant, if he was that way inclined I imagine he could be quite nasty; hence the accusations made against him in CoS.
I'll have to remember to watch that.
