I've actually seen her as a blonde in Casanova. but i guess being Narcissa Malfoy she has to be white blonde almost silverish kind of blonde. I really hope she does a great job! i'm going to have very high expectations for her

I think Naomi Watts was a better choice for Narcissa, as she fitted her physique so well. Helendoesn't seem to be of that type--mean and all.

Shes a brilliant actress trust me she may not look like the image of Narcissa we all had but she does thrillers really well she was in a remake of Frankenstien and did it really well as the doctor who created him!!!
when you look at the Tonks actress she looks nothing like Tonks but with her hair an make-up done she looks really good. Give Helen an chance.

She is such a great actor. She definitely does not match the Narcissa in my mind. I'm just going to have to see her in character.

It doesn't matter that she doesn't look like Narcissa, it's her talent that matters. All she needs is a good blonde hairstyle and she's sorted. The make up and dress department will do a good job.

She's not how I pictured Narcissa. I guess we will just have to wait and see.

I don't really know who she is, but I'm sure she will be great as long as they give her a blond wig too. Then she will look like Narcissa.

I hope she does it justice. I always thought Narcissa had blonde hair to be completely opposite from Bellatrix.
