Naomi Watts confirms her part in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Here’s Naomi Watts looking quite pregnant, I think she’s about to give birth any day now.

Asked about the rumors of her involvement in the 6th Harry Potter movie:

"It’s true, I’m going to have a small part in the next Harry Potter movie. You know why? The cast is fantastic and I’ve always wanted to be part of this franchise. I’m really thrilled."

Well, yes – I would think you would be thrilled, since King Kong wasn’t exactly a blockbuster, now, was it? Although that one part where the giant insects are eating everyone was pretty awesome. Well, awesome in the context of giving me nightmares for weeks, anyway.

    King Kong was a hit, not just commercially but critically as well, with reviewers saying it was one of the best films of 2005. It may not grossed as much as Titanic, as a lot of people were predicting, but it surely wasn’t a flop earning a big $700 million worldwide.

    And Naomi is in my opinion one of the best actresses out there. Amazing in any role, I think she is the perfect Narcissa!

    It’s not a bad choice I guess. But it’s just that in my head Cate Blanchett always was Narcissa but even though she played Queen Elizabeth she is propably not British enough for HP.
    And now I have to redecorate in my imagination… oh well.

    I always had an of Narcissa in my head. I know she is a great actress but I can’t imagine her being that nasty.

    To be honest I am just relieved its not KRISTEN SCOTT THOMAS (no offence to her fans)

    Paige, you’re kidding right? Plenty of “famous” people have starred in these movies! Maggie Smith, Emma Thompson, Kenneth Branagh, Richard Harris, Michael Gambon… these people are acting legends.

    Just because someone isn’t in a tabloid every week does not mean they’re not famous.

    [...] “Naomi Watts confirms Narcissa; Stuart Townsend, Joseph Fiennes and Naomi Watts in Harry Potter 6. I don’t think we know who Townsend and Fiennes are supposed to play, except that it occurred to me: what if they’re getting Ralph Fiennes’ brother to play Voldemort’s father? Brilliant.” YAY! Joseph Fiennes and Stuart Townsend! [...]
