His new and fifth season “Crown”, that is, the series that follows the life of the British palace is already on Netflix and in this, in addition to the turbulent 90s for the royal family, we also see new actors in the lead roles.
Years pass, so the role of Elizabeth in these new episodes, among other things, is taken over after Claire Foy and Olivia Colman. Imelda Staunton.
And if this is one of the most recognizable actresses in Britain, then there are those who can hardly watch the new cycle of the series, and the reason is none other than …Harry Potter.
Back in 2007 and the fifth film about the young wizard of Hogwarts “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”, Imelda Staunton wore a pink tajer and played the grumpy teacher. Dolores Umbridge which made life difficult for Harry Potter.
This is also the reason why some viewers can’t separate Stoughton from this role which they “see” in her face even now when she plays Queen Elizabeth.
“I love Imelda Staunton and she is a good choice for the Queen in The Crown, but unfortunately I can still hear Umbridge from Harry Potter when she speaks!” wrote one social media user with whom it’s clear others sympathize: “Imelda Staunton really has the aura of Dolores Umbridge in a queen wig, I can’t stop thinking about Dolores Umbridge,” we read elsewhere on Twitter.
The truth, of course, is that Thayer Umbridge could easily fit into Elizabeth’s wardrobe.
