| | Imelda Staunton talks Professor Umbridge
Imelda Staunton has stated several times that she will be playing Professor Umbridge in ' Order of the Phoenix'. This is still unconfirmed by WB; David Heyman stated they were in 'negotiations' a while ago. Once again she has spoken about the role, this time to TV Quick magazine. Quote:

Well, her sense of humor is an assuring thing...and I can see her as Umbridge. No problem.

That'll be kind of embarassing *like Anna Friel saying she'd love to be TONKS..as if she could pull TONKS off,and like they would cast her*
The truth hurts...watch out Imelda!
yeah it's true.
they're still in talks so for the time being she should not say anything that get us fans hopes high up.
but i think she'd be great to play umbridge

She sounds so wonderful, and she's such a great actress. I'd die if I was on set, surrounded by all these greats. The films are really turning into a who's-who of British talent, even creating new stars! She wasn't my first choice for the part, but then, I've been desperately hoping that they'd somehow get Jo Brand into the films so far (would have put money on her for Olympe)

Why wont WB just confirm her casting as Umbridge then? She's perfect for the role...can't see anyone else playing the part. And it's great that she's a fan of the books.

Imelda already seems like a funny character herself. I can't wait to see how she turns out dressed to look and act like Professor Umbridge.

Hehe! I like her! She's got a sense of humour!  I'm sure they'll do something to her!! Just to make her feel better! Quote:

I just love it so much when I hear the actors/actresses saying how much they love the books and that they have them all! So so cool!
