Jason Isaacs, who portrays Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter movies, is becoming more like his character he says. In an effort to remain in character he avoids answering his fan mail, he also comments that he’s enjoyed playing Lucius and that he hopes that he will be in the next movie and that author Rowling continues to write Harry Potter books for years to come.
I'm carefully cultivating an entire generation of people who despise me, because when you're in 'Harry Potter' films you get a lot of fan mail... I haven't answered any of it, so they will hate me even more than they did to start with. They probably spent their pocket money sending me a stamped, addressed envelope. Number four is finished. I'm not signed up for number five; I haven't got a script for [it] yet, but I understand I have some things to do in the book and, if they ask me, then I would be hoping to be in it. Because that is good fun, it's ridiculously good fun to dress up as a wizard ... I hope that [JK Rowling] writes it until Harry Potter is 65 years old and on a walking frame.

That's awesome when the ACTORS in the movie love it so much, I like that he's trying to stay in character, not even answering his fan mail! He'll have quite a job to do when all of the movies are finished!

Jason Issacs is a great actor. I love the fact that he enjoys his character so much, and wants to continue playing Lucius. I don't think anyone else could play Lucius like he does.

Jason Isaacs is deinitely one with his character Lucius Malfoy from the Harry Potter books/movies. I think its kind of mean to admit that he doesn't read his fan mail, but it makes him stay in character, fine by me. I hope he returns for OOTP!!

Yeah I'd be annoyed if he didn't answer fanmail I'd sent him but I wouldn't hate him. And man he doesn't look like he does in the movies!

Why would he want people to despise him? I think he should answer his fan mail, he needs to be treated as a person not just his character.

I think that Jason Isaacs is an excellent actor who portrays Lucius soo well! It probably wouldn't be the same if he wasn't in the 5th movie!! That's pretty funny that he doesn't answer fan mail (and kinda mean too) but i guess that's the image he likes...

That is really suprising. I never would have thought of doing that. I bet he would be an interesting person to meet.

Wow, he has to really be into his character to be mean to little kids. He seems like an interesting person.

He can't not be in the fifth film because he has such a big part. Thats would be stupid if he wasnt in it. He really is a good actor though. he is evil.

Thats really cool. I'm glad that he is so excited about playing a role like this. You would think that the more well-known stars before Harry Potter wouldn't be as into these movies. Thats awesome!

hehe, that was pretty amusing. :P But I think he's great at portraying Lucius Malfoy. I hope he will be in the fifth movie. I kind of think he should read/answer his fan mail, oh well.

Hahaha. I can't believe he's that serious about keeping in character. Seems a bit mean to all his fans, but at least they know now why he never answers their mail.

Haha. Jason's a funny guy. How can expect us to hate him?
He's a great actor that's for sure and I really hope he's in OotP :)

I think it is so funny that he wants his fans to hate him! But I think I will hate Umbridge even more. Its funny how everybody hates that Cho Chang girl when her character doesn't do anything too bad and everybody thinks this guy is totally hot.

Quite the entertaining bit there. It certainly IS easy to hate him because he is such a NASTY wizard! Love the hair though. Doesn't seem right that one of the hottest men in the movie tends to also be one of the meanest!

I can't help myself, despite the fact that both Malfoy and Snape are thoroughly unlikeable, I absolutely adore them both! How wonderful to be paid play such wicked characters! They have a lot of great lines to speak!

I think Jason Isaacs plays a great Lucius Malfoy. He always does well as the bad guy.
There will always be a bad guy.

Heh, if people still loved him after what he did in The Patriot, I don't see how they'll stop loving him for this.
Personally, I don't see how I could ever despise Jason Isaacs in a blond wig. (grins)

I love to hate Jason Isaacs! He is such a good actor! I HATED him in the movie "The Patriot", and he is just as sneaky and slimy in Harry Potter! Perfect for a Malfoy!! :)

it must be so cool acting in a Harry Potter film.I don't quiet understand why he isn't answering his fan mail. I wish J K Rowling would continue to write the Harry Potter book but we know she is only writing 7 books to bad though.
