Tabloid British paper, The Mirror, is reporting that Helen McCrory
, has signed on to play Bellatrix Lestrange in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Ms. McCrory recently appeared in Charlotte Gray, and The Count of Monte Cristo.
According to the article
:
The producers are trying to keep the cast a secret until it's all sealed. But they are really keen on Helen. They think she has the gravitas and looks to pull off the part of Bellatrix.
The article also reports that Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson are signed on again in to play Harry, Ron and Hermione.
We are trying to confirm this report with Warner Bros. and as soon as we hear anything we will let you know.

WOW! Thats exactly how I pictured her, if they havent picked her yet they should, but then again I cant comment on her acting because I've never seen her before.

I've never heard of her, and I'll have to search on yahoo for a better picture of her (Because I cannot see the avatar image all that well) until then I can't exactly say she looks perfect for Bellatrix, but I'm sure she'll do great if she is infact going to play Bellatrix.
CHEERS!

I think she would be good for the part... She does look sort of evil, in a way...

Wow, I think they actually did an awesome job casting Bellatrix. Helen McCrory looks basically the way I imagined Bellatrix. She's not exactly pretty (and what can you expect after over a decade in Azkaban?), but you can see some remnants of beauty from many years ago. And she looks quite aristocratic, too. I think she fits the role very well.
