Natalia Tena (Nymphadora Tonks) has revealed in an interview with
The Telegram that she feels the film-makers didn't take enough risks with her character, in terms of her hairstyle & costumes. Natalia also talks about what she expects from
Deathly Hallows.
Quote:
Q: Was it hard to portray a character beloved by millions of people who have already created an image of Tonks in their mind? Did you worry about fulfilling their expectations?
A: I did at the beginning … I didn’t like some of the things they did at the beginning, to be honest. I really wish she had had pink hair like in the book. They didn’t want to do that because pink would be associated with (Dolores) Umbridge, who is evil. They really didn’t take many risks.
At the beginning I really looked like a punk … and they kind of toned (it) down a bit. And I wasn’t happy with that because in my mind I was thinking “You know what, that’s not what kids are going to expect.”

Q: Do you have any predictions on what’s in store for Tonks in the last book?
A: I’ve been thinking about that. I reckon she’ll either die really quickly or she’ll kill Bellatrix (Lestrange) at some point. Or she’ll kill one of the big baddies at the end somehow. I really hope Harry dies, though, and I want Neville (Longbottom) to be the one that was the chosen one all along.
