Helena Bonham Carter Signs For Harry Potter Movie

Oscar nominated actress Helena Bonham Carter is reported to have signed on for the next Harry Potter movie, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Bonham Carter will play the role of Bellatrix Lestrange in the adaptation of the fifth novel in J.K. Rowling’s children’s fantasy series.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix will be directed by David Yates and will also feature Imelda Staunton as Dolores Umbridge and Evanna Lynch as Luna Lovegood alongside regular cast members Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter), Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley) and Emma Watson (Hermione Granger)

The Harry Potter films have always tried to cast the best British actors available for all the key roles in the movies and Helena Bonham Carter is sure to be excellent in the role of Voldemort supporter Bellatrix Lestrange.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is set for a Summer 2007 release.
