I did. Although it was so tiny.

A couple of new quotes from Nat about her opinion on HBP.

Quote:

We all had to lean closer as Natalia Tena spent a few seconds whispering in imitation of David Yates, making the others laugh in agreement. "He is awesome. He's so soft spoken. You don't even know how he gets stuff done. Most other directors, like in theatre, are like, ‘Lights! What are you doing? Get him to do that!'" yells Natalia, and then bursts into laughter.

Natalia continues, "Yeah of all the male directors, he's pretty cool. But in theatre, I've only ever worked with females. All women, in all of the shows I've done. And that's a different thing." In terms of flexibility in theatre, she believes, "There's so much money and technical stuff, I think you can't play as much."

Quote:

"The script was so different from the book. I think that a lot of Harry Potter fans are going to be a bit pissed off about it, and that's my own opinion. I think it is so different from the book. Like so different. So many elements of it. I think the book is supposed to be about how the two worlds (Muggle and Wizarding) are now being affected by this dark force. Like the beginning of the book, you see the Prime Minister and you get a sense of that forecast. All this stuff was taken out, and I think it's a shame. I personally would've liked to see that."

Quote:

"I would definitely play Helena Bonham Carter's part! Bellatrix Lestrange!" Natalia declares enthusiastically.

Not much to talk about nowadays, so I visited Nat's site again and there are a lot of new things there, including some interesting videos if you haven't seem them yet

You can find them here in the NEWS & UPDATES section

Not that I'm AT ALL complaining about the new promos, but it would be nice if some Tonks was in there too.

***L i N d $ @ y*** · 07-04-2008, 08:57 AM

yeah, it would be nice if she has some promo pics as well.

New movie deal that might have Nat filming with Dan!

Quote:

Spanish/US production outfit Intervision Partners is in advanced negotiations with The Weinstein Company to put together a major project billed as the "Spanish Joan Of Arc".

The film will tell the story of Agustina Raimunda Maria Saragossa Domenech, a famous Spanish heroine who defended her country's independence during the Peninsular Wars against Napoleon.

British-born journalist Richard Thompsett, now based in the US, has written the script, which picked up best screenplay at the Orlando Hispanic Film Festival.

Casting us underway with Natalia Tena (who appeared in the last and upcoming Harry Potter films) as Intervision Partners' first choice to play Agustina. "She would be perfect because she's British but her parents are Spanish. We have also approached Ellen Page and Natalie Portman for the role," says Max Montalvo, a Spanish based producer with Intervision Partners.

Other cast members being considered are Daniel Radcliffe to play a young Lord Byron, Cillian Murphy, Joseph Fiennes or Jonathan Rhys Myers for the role of LT, General Sir Arthur Wellesley (later Duke of Wellington) and Penelope Cruz, Salma Hayek or Eva Mendez to play the role of Agustina's older sister.

"We are hoping to shoot the film this year in either Lithuania or Malta with a couple of weeks in Zaragoza on location," adds Montalvo. "But we've been told Radcliffe is not available until 2010 so we might have to wait. Hopefully if Tena says yes, he'll want to take on the role as well.

"We are in advanced talks with The Weinstein Company to make the film, as part of a five year deal on a slate of films. I have talked to other studios, but I get on very well with The Weinstein Company. If they agree to take on Agustina we'll do most of the financing and they'll distribute it."

Screen Daily - News
The plan is to turn the film into a franchise with prequels and sequels. A director is yet to be attached to Agustina.

Intervision Partners was founded in 2006 in New York by Total Communications Group, Spanish Intercontinental TV, 4-D Creative Media and US cable network AmericanLife TV.

Sweet!! That's quite cool, I think Nat would be great in a role

***L i N d $ @ y*** · 01-02-2009, 08:34 AM

interesting. its not the first time HP characters have been in other movies together.

Ellipsis · 01-02-2009, 03:06 PM

The cast is just so big..

.

***L i N d $ @ y*** · 01-04-2009, 03:53 AM

i remember, was it Dan who said it? that he loves doing the HP movies because all those great British actors have been on it.

Leo-4-Life · 01-04-2009, 09:03 AM

It was more than likely him then yeah.

I'd love to see him working with Natalia in something else!

**baileycat** · 01-05-2009, 06:34 AM

And even if Dan can't do this film, having Nat as their first choice for the main part is really encouraging. You don't hear that very often.
