The current issue of Premiere magazine has published the first picture we’ve seen of Miranda Richardson
in costume as Rita Skeeter from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire which is currently filming.
According to the article courtesy of MuggleNet:
Another year at Hogwarts, another director charge. As the first Englishman to direct a Potter flick, Mike Newell brings his own school days to bear as Harry faces not only his own fire-breathing dragons in the Triwizard Tournament but also his greatest challenge yet - the resurrection of Voldemort.
"This story is about the return of the being of evil," says Newell. "Harry is the vital ingredient for the potion which will bring Voldemort back." Like He-Who-Must Not-Be-Named, Daily Prophet hack Rita Skeeter makes her first appearance in this fourth installment of the series.
"She's completely brash and completely hateful," says Richardson, who likens Skeeter to 1930s gossip queen Hedda Hopper. "She's written the deal before she even gets there, really."

OH MY FREAKING GOD! I can't beleive it! Miranda Richardson is playing Rita Skeeter? That's sooo awesome! I went to go watch Phantom of the Opera and Miranda Richardson was on it as Madame Giry. She played the part perfectly and she'll play Rita Skeeter perfectly too.

Not a bad Rita Skeeter, but I pictured looking a bit more harsh and more masculine. Miranda Richardson is a fabulous actress though, so I'm sure she'll really bring the character to life.
