Helena Bonham Carter to Film HBP Scenes in Spring, 2008While not yet officially confirmed by Warner Brothers,
representatives for actress Helena Bonham Carter have said the actress would be reprising her role as Bellatrix Lestrange for the upcoming “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” film. In an article with The Independent, they discuss the actress, who is currently expecting her second child with husband, director Tim Burton. The reps say that that Helena Carter Bonham would be back filming the sixth Harry Potter film next year, with the article noting “her publicist said yesterday that Bonham Carter was not due back on the Potter set until the spring.”
( Helena the Fashionista! )Let me say, YAY! I was pretty sure she would be back, but it's nice to have it confirmed because really there's no other actress that could play Bellatrix for me now, and I needed to see the true Bellatrix on screen for the scenes with Cissy. Now, if they'd only announce who will be playing Narcissa I can commence squeeing like a fangirl.
