Imelda Staunton as Umbridge: Back in Pink for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
DH FilmThe always fabulous Imelda Staunton is the subject of a new profile in the Daily Mail. In the new interview she remarks on her return performance as the horrible ex-Professor Umbridge and her reign of (interrogation) terror in the upcoming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, noting:
"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.'
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.'
She did an excellent job, glad she is back.
