The role of Narcissa Malfoy has been cast, which must mean that the
crucial "Spinner's End" scene will be included in the HBP film--maybe
even open it as the Frank Bryce scene opened GoF. And that's excellent
news for Snape fans. But the casting seems a bit off to me. The
actress is Helen McCrory, originally cast for Bellatrix, but that role
was given to Helena Bonham-Carter because McCrory was pregnant.

So, we have a dark-haired, brown-eyed Narcissa? Or will she wear a
blonde wig with blue contacts? And, forgive me, but McCrory is just
not pretty enough for the role. We're supposed to see a beautiful,
arrogant woman reduced to helpless tears and arousing the chivalric
instincts of the seemingly cold, sarcastic Snape. Will it work? Can
she pull it off? Or has she been miscast?
Carol, looking forward to the Unbreakable Vow scene, which will make
spectacular cinema, but disappointed in the casting
