In a new interview with The Daily Mail, Imelda Staunton (who plays Dolores Umbridge in Order of the Phoenix) briefly mentions returning for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows:Another role that Staunton is to revive is that of the malicious Dolores Umbridge for the two-part film Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, which is due out next year.
'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.'

Alas, Edmund’s father, a.k.a. Dracula, and Homer try to squash the budding romance. “Daniel was very excited to do The Simpsons,” says Jean, “and we kept trying to ask him for secrets from the upcoming Harry Potter movie until we realized that they were all in the books.”

In a press conference back in 2000, producer David Heyman read a note from J.K. Rowling sharing her thoughts on the casting of Dan Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson as the trio.WB has released a new video of the press conference to promote the Sorcerer's Stone and Chamber of Secrets Ultimate Collector's editions.
"Having seen Dan Radcliffe's screen test, I don't think Chris Columbus could have found a better Harry. I am also delighted to see that we're going to have a screen Ron and Hermione who can bicker as if they'd been doing it all their lives. Chris's choice of three wonderful British actors for the leading roles shows how well he understands the spirit of these books. I wish Dan, Emma, and Rupert the very best of luck, and hope they have as much fun acting the first year at Hogwarts as I had writing it," Rowling said.
Thanks to Snitch Seeker!
