Quote of the Week - Helen Mirren
 
http://www.snitchseeker.com/gallery/images/qotw5.gif


As part of promotion for her upcoming film, The Debt, Academy-Award winning actress Helen Mirren revealed that she had never, in fact, been asked to be in the Harry Potter film series - something she wish she had taken part of during her illustrious career. Daniel Radcliffe mentioned on more than one occasion over the years that he would have loved to work alongside Mirren in the Harry Potter series, though sadly she was never cast.

Quote:

Ask her about one of her biggest career regrets, and it's that she's one of the few acclaimed British actors never to get an invite to Hogwarts.

"I was in some award ceremony and 'Harry Potter' was getting an award and one of the producers very graciously mentioned that — because I was there and I met him — 'Oh, Helen Mirren, the one who got away.' And I said, 'It's because you never asked me, mate!'"

Helen Mirren is extraordinary, I would've loved to see her in HP!

PhoenixAnn 08-29-2011 09:35 AM

She's a wonderful actress! I wonder who she would like to play in HP... :shifty:

Enrico_Dc 08-29-2011 09:52 AM

She fits as Neville's grandmother, imo

dollyluh 08-29-2011 11:08 AM

BonnieGinnyfan 08-29-2011 11:59 AM

WoooooW!! Awesome quote :D Haha,although I had to admit that I would LOVE to her in the HP series ^_^ She's an awesome actress

moony- 08-29-2011 12:25 PM

ooooh, another actress who would have been amazing in potter!

Devina Wellheart 08-29-2011 12:33 PM

She would have been an excellent Madame Hooch. She's just got the look of that character. It too bad she wasn't called upon for the films.

i solemnly swear.. 08-29-2011 01:22 PM

awh would of been awesome to see her in there.. she would of been great!:)

loony_potterhead 08-29-2011 01:24 PM

i wonder what if she got a role in Harry Potter, which char she will be?? :xd:

jasygrama 08-29-2011 01:31 PM

:flower: Helen Mirren is one of our very favorite British actresses. She plays any part she is given with great finesse. She would have been fantastic in Potter along side Maggie Smith. She's also very beautiful.

Fran James Granger 08-29-2011 01:47 PM

I think she would played very well Dolores Umbidge...

She doesn't fit with the character features but she could be that bad!

AvisPhoenix74 08-29-2011 02:17 PM

It would of been nice to have had her in the HP films!

And yes! That's what I was thinking! :)

RoseWitch 08-29-2011 02:18 PM

I think it would have been awesome to see her in the movies, but I wonder who she would have played? Everybody fits their characters so well!

snapefan 08-29-2011 02:19 PM

nice!

Ringo 08-29-2011 02:22 PM

I'd like to see her play Neville's grandmother....that'd be cool

Patronus Charm 08-29-2011 06:17 PM

she is excellent; however, no every brilliant British actor can be in HP! For that matter, i would have loved Colin Firth in the series.

Ga.b. 08-29-2011 06:51 PM

She is amazing!

sylvelle 08-29-2011 07:03 PM

Ah the one that got away
 
It is unfortunate that no one asked her. What a amazing actress. We Americans love her too.

mionepotter 08-29-2011 07:55 PM

Potter's woman through and through
 
Wow it would have been awesome to have Helen in hp but the thing is that which character would she play...cuz every actor in hp is brilliant cannot think of anyone to replace...:hermy:

Hermionespell 08-29-2011 07:57 PM

Hahah!

Lady Mouldywart 08-29-2011 08:59 PM

I guess it's one thing being a fan who wished they could be in the movies, and actually being an actress and not getting a part.
