[Mrs. Lex Luthor]

Kate could pull off the short hair in a few of her photo shoots she has several that has short hair. 
It still bugs me how badly they chose the actress playing Tonks, they basically left her out of the movies. Her two scenes were just bad. 

Love,
Red

Tonks hair was short in the book, so I never would see Kate Winslet with
short hair like that (think the cover of the U.S. hardcover.) I also don't
think of Tonks as having Kate's rather broad, physical build. Not saying
that Kate's not a beautiful woman, but I never and don't see her as
Tonks.

I don't think the actress that plays her even comes close physically to the
description in the book and I don't like the long hair.  

Maybe Kate Beckinsale. I could see her as Tonks.

Interesting you would mention Kate Winslet there, Red. When I was thinking 
of the upcoming HBP and possible actors for newly introduced characters, one

of my possible choices was having Kate Winslet as Merope Riddle. I also 
thought of Josie Lawrence as another possibility. That's all in terms of 
British actresses I can name who I could possibly picture as Merope. Anyone 
else have any idea? It seems Merope may not appear in the movie, but it's 
still fun to think about.
