In an interview by Coutts Women, Helen McCrory talks about her movies, life, family and choices. She also talked about her upcoming movie, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Here is an except:

Helen’s next project is another such choice. She plays Narcissa Malfoy in the upcoming Harry Potter film, The Half-Blood Prince, out in November. Originally cast as Bellatrix LeStrange in the previous film, Helena Bonham Carter took the role when pregnancy and flying stunts ruled Helen out.

But Narcissa is a much better fit. She’s the sister of Bellatrix, the wife of Lucius, and the devoted mother of Draco, whom she’s willing to sacrifice everything for – something McCrory can now identify with.

“There’s Helena in Doc Martins, mad hair and rolling eyes, Alan Rickman as Snape who, if he was more relaxed, his heart would stop. Then Jim Broadbent is lurching towards you opening the door. It’s surreal. These are actors normally playing lead roles and some have four lines here. So it’s amazing creativity both on the acting and production fronts. There’s this freedom to create which is quite unusual for Britain,” she admits.
