| | Half-Blood Prince casting rumours denied
Representatives for Naomi Watts, Joseph Fiennes, and Stuart Townsend have all denied claims that their talent are to appear in Half-Blood Prince. Quote:
“Not true,” declared representatives for Naomi Watts, who was rumored to be playing the role of Narcissa Malfoy (and we think she’d do an awesome job, by the way. Heck, we picked her for the role last month!)
“These reports are not true,” echoed representatives for Joseph Fiennes. “Not true” was also stated by Townsend’s reps.

Can't wait to find out the official casting news once filming comes closer. I'm excited, and I know they'll pick the right people for the roles! They have so far. |

Well, some rumors can be cruel to the victims. There's no choice, is there?

I'm kind of happy that Naomi isn't playing the role, because i still say that Emily Procter from CSI Miami (Calleigh Duquesne) would be better suited. I dunno lol she just fit how i pictures Narcissa Malfoy. lol but Emily isn't british...so i guess she wouldn't be gettign the role either

Pity. I thought it would be cool to have both Ralph and Joseph Fiennes in the same film either playing the same character (Voldemort at different ages) or the related characters (Tom Riddle Sr. and Tom Riddle Jr.)

Sometimes debunking rumours are a way to bid time during contract negotiations, who knows!
Naomi might be a good Narcissa, but is she old enough?

Actually,I was REALLY hoping they would cast an unknown for Narcissa Malfoy.I mean,Naomi Watts could play the part,but she's an American and the accent might be kind of iffy.I prefer regular people in the films instead of famous actors and actresses playing the roles.

I actually don't think that I would like Naomi as Narcissa, the actress I think would be really good is Kate Beckinsale, with blonde hair of course! I think she would be perfect..
But I'm upset about Joseph Fiennes and Stuart Townsend, they would have been good!

| I really hoped Naomi would play Narcissa. I don't really know the other two, so I'm not too fussed about them, though. |

Too bad. But you never know. The actors may change their minds and want to play a part in HP.
