| | | Imelda Staunton talks Umbridge's return in Deathly Hallows
In a new interview, actress Imelda Staunton spoke about her return as Dolores Umbridge in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and how getting the role has changed her life. Quote:
Another role that Staunton is to revive is that of the malicious Dolores Umbridge for the two-part film Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, which is due out next year.
'Now, that is a great role,' she says with relish. 'It was wonderful playing this baddie dressed in pink, and to be able to play her again is a real treat.'
Quote:
Her first Harry Potter was in 2007. Did it change her life?
'No, not really. I don't get chased down the street by hordes of kids. I still live a very normal life.
'The one good thing is that I get a lot more good scripts coming through my letterbox. Vera Drake raised my profile in one way, and then Harry Potter in another.'
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: will be released on November 19, 2010 and July 15, 2011. |

Imelda is an amazing actress. She played Umbridge so good, that I doubt anyone could do it better. Can't wait to see her in DH

I'm so excited to see her on screen again. She was such a tremendous actress, and portrayed Umbridge soooo well. She made me loath the character even more, which I was such wasn't possible! I'm happy that they seem to be going well along with the book! I can't wait to see what they are going to make the locket look like!

I know that this is probably really bad,
but if I saw her walking down the street I think I would be filled with immediate hatred =x
Umbridge is just so terrible!
Even though she's totally fake. Still XD She's a great actress though! And I'm totally stoked to have her come back =D |

I'm not surprised that it raised her profile. Before she did Harry Potter, I dont think she every played a villain before. So I'm sure that was a nice change of pace. I can't wait to see her in DH...it's a small part, but it's still a really creepy Umbridge moment!  Fyi we confirmed her return in July. Quote:
(Is she still not coming back bc of Nanny McPhee?)
Correct.

Good to see her back, considering how well she played Umbridge in 5th movie.
I hope Ill never have a teacher just like her, though Ive had similar...
