I think she'll be a good Umbridge, she certainly does kind of look like I had imagined her.

That would be fantastic! She's not the size of the Umbridge I pictured, but she's got the facial features. Oh I hope this is a substantiated rumor... I think she's perfect!!!

She looks quite a lot like the umbridge I imagined. And with a bit of make-up and smart dress, I'm sure she'll really look the part.

Hmmm...interesting. She looks kinda how I imagined her, she'll look better when she's dressed up and everything. And she's a really famous actress, too, it would be brilliant if she played her!

Hey, she doesn't look like a toad. I wonder if during the audition she had to give the old "HEM, HEM" a whirl.

She could be good. She has done a lot of acting. I don't think it would matter too much if she isnt exactly what we are picturing. She just has to play her evil enough.

This is cool. There was a topic in the forums about her being Umbridge, I can't seem to find now, though. I think she'd do an excellent job. To me, she looks much like the part, with a little make-up and that ugly bow added. However, I understand that Contact Music isn't the most reliable source for information.

I think she looks too nice to play Umbridge but I guess with make up it will look different.

I don't know her. But I agree with Silverblood, the first thought that came to me was she looks too nice to be ugly Umbridge. But we've seen their work on Moody, I guess they can make anything happen.

From the picture, she is not what i expected but once they have made her all up, she might be a good umbridge, we will just have to wait and see though.

I can see her doing it... but of course, we'll wait for official verification from Warner Brothers. (I can't believe we're already discussing OoTP and we haven't even seen GoF!!)
