Miranda Richardson – Now
Despite embodying an intrinsically nasty and duplicitous character in Harry Potter, Richardson’s true nature was a stark contrast, a testament to her acting prowess.
After the cameras stopped rolling on the beloved franchise, Richardson took on the role of British Labour politician Barbara Castle in the film “Made in Dagenham.” She also stepped into the shoes of Queen Ulla in Angelina Jolie’s Disney film “Maleficent” in 2014, although her part was ultimately cut during post-production.
