UPDATED: Naomi Watts NOT in Harry Potter 6

by Matt Holmes

UPDATED: It's now been reported that this casting announcement is false. Damn those news sources and there lies! My girlfriend is a huge Harry Potter nut but I don't think she can bring herself to read the last book in the series. I think she understands that this is it now and once she has read that last page... it's all over. No more Harry Potter books to look forward to in the future. However, there's still those two remaining Potter films to get excited over. An Australian news source are reporting that Naomi Watts, Joseph Fiennes and Stuart Townsend have all signed up for roles in the next Harry Potter film. Apparently Naomi's role is a supporting one, as she has reportedly signed on to play Draco's nasty mother Narcissa Malfoy. You always have to be careful fully believing news stories from sources like these but all those decisions seem to be make sense. They are all pretty consistent with the type of actor the Potter franchise has looked for in the past... and it wouldn't surprise me if all this was confirmed pretty soon.
