| | |  Jason Isaacs, “It’s obscene that I get paid!”
In an interview about his new play The Dumb Waiter, HP actor Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy) equates playing the evil character to his daughter playing dress-up. Quote:
It's obscene that I get paid. People should complain. I've got a four-year-old, she's got a dress-up box in her room and nothing touches Lucius Malfoy. She's got fairies and wizards and witches and superheroes, and nothing touches it.
I get there and I say 'Can I have a cane with a wand inside it? Can I have a cape? Do you think I could have a belt with a snake's head on it? Do you think I can blast that wall and it blows open and I walk through it?' It's absurd a man of my age doing that stuff.
And then you get there and realise you're doing scenes with Gary Oldman and Helena Bonham Carter. I look at the call sheet and they're going to be there today, I'm going to get to talk to them. Before you know it you're having lunch and sharing HP sauce. It's fantastic.
If you're someone like me, who finds work enjoyably tortured – I'm constantly niggling away trying to make it better and realer and more three-dimensional – it's nice to leave all that at home and turn up at Harry Potter and just be unalloyed Nazi evil.
The Dumb Waiter is currently playing in London at Trafalgar Studio 1 through March 27.  | |

I love this guy so much  . He and Alan Rickman are the most perfectly cast people in Harry Potter. Ingenius almost.

Gosh, I just love him! (although my insides practically boil when I watch Malfoy in the films Jasen always says the coolest things about the HP cast and crew, I really get a sense of what it's like when he describes it. Man, this movie has Bellatrix and Lucius! *siked*

 AH! I Jason Issacs! It's so funny he's amazed by his pay check. He should get paid that much.. he's amazing!
I'd love to leave home and turn up at Harry Potter!! Just to be an extra and walk across the screen would make my life....

When he talks, in the movie, it sounds like he's whispering, but it has strength. It's awesome. He looks much better without the wig. Luv the interview!!

I think he really enjoys being evil. Does he have some latant tendencies we don't know about?
