Video: Jason Isaacs On BBC1's Something For The Weekend
|
While promoting his film Good, Jason Isaacs appeared last weekend on the BBC1 program Something For The Weekend. Inevitably, he talks about the Harry Potter films and how he conferred with Chris Columbus (Chamber of Secrets director) on the details of Lucius Malfoy's appearance. It was Isaacs' idea that Draco Malfoy's father should pull his wand out of a walking stick; and Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) thought that was "cool".
So do I!

A Lapland Christmas For Jason Isaacs
|
PR-inside.com posted a brief release about Jason Isaacs’ intention to meet his family in Lapland for Christmas. The Harry Potter actor who is known for his role as “Lucius Malfoy” “fears he spends too much time away from his young children while he is filming…”
"I get home when my kids are asleep and I leave before they wake up, so I'm trying to buy my way back into their affection.”
That is why he wants to make sure the family has a great Christmas:
"I'm desperate to take my kids to Lapland to meet Santa. That's a trip you can do from London. I've got friends who have taken their kids there and they're now grown up, like 10 or 11, and they realise there's no Tooth Fairy, but they still believe in Santa - because they met him.
So I'm desperate to take my kids before the disbelief sets in. We have Santa, the Tooth Fairy and The Switch Witch who comes on Halloween and switches out all the candy by the bed for a gift; the Tooth Fairy's cousin."
I hope they have a magical time.

Isaacs on Being Almost Israeli, Good, and Potter
|
Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter films) recently attended the Jerusalem Jewish Film Festival at the Jerusalem Cinematheque to present his latest film, Good, in which he has the role of Maurice, a Jew when the Nazis take over Germany. While there, he spoke with The Jerusalem Post.
During the interview, he mentions how he feels almost Israeli. His parents and brothers made aliya years ago and live in Herzliya (although his brothers have moved back and forth between here and England). And like many Israelis, he defends Israel passionately in public and criticizes it passionately in private. "Spiritually, I feel Israeli," he said.
He was also asked if his Lucius character was good for Jews. Read more to see what he had to say about this, about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows being split into two films, and more. |

Jason Isaacs Speaks of Cameo Role in Half-Blood Prince
|
Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy) spoke with MTV about a cameo role he had in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. He hadn't expected to be in the film since his character wasn't in the book, which, he admitted, 'killed' him. However, some luck, and a bit of magic, got him on the set to film for one day.
“I’m not [really] in the film [but] I did one day. I went in for a day,” Isaacs revealed to MTV News of a secret cameo he gets to make in the movie. “I’m a moving portrait on the wall.”

Jason Isaacs: No Plans To See Dan Radcliffe In Equus
|
South Wales Evening Post posted an article that Jason Isaacs was currently in Rhode Island and New York to film the second season of the American TV series Brotherhood. The actor, who is known for his role as “Lucius Malfoy” in the Harry Potter films, had been asked if he plans to see Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) make his Broadway debut in Equus by Peter Shaffer during his stay in the States.
"I won't see him on Broadway because I'll be back in England," Jason said at the premiere of his new film, Good, at the Toronto International Film Festival. "I didn't get to see him in London because I was on stage the same time he was on stage.
"But you know, because I have to work with him again and again and again, I'm not sure I want to go watch him naked."
In spite of being known for his roles in the Harry Potter films, the BBC series The State Within, as well as Brotherhood, Mr. Isaacs claims people rarely recognize him.
"I virtually never get recognised, which is fine by me because I still get to work all the time, and I get to try to be different every time I'm in front of the camera or on stage, and that's the ideal state of play," he said.
"I've been around people who are very famous, quite a lot in my life, and their life and their work is quite heavily compromised by that. As long as I can put food in the fridge and keep my kids in education, that's all I need to do."

Jason Isaacs Can’t Wait To Return To Harry’s World
|
Entertainment Weekly posted an interview with Jason Isaacs about his appearances in the new seasons for Entourage and Brotherhood. The actor mentioned reprising his role as “Lucius Malfoy” for the two film adaptations of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
"I wasn’t in six so it has been a long hiatus for me and I can’t wait to get back in that world. It is easy to get back into the mind of Lucius. I just put on the wig. The thing about that wig is that it is long and straight and the only way to get it straight is to tilt my head back and then I’m forced to look down my nose at people. And suddenly Lucius is back in town.”

Jason Isaacs Hopes to Return for Deathly Hallows
|
Jason Isaacs, who portrays Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter films, recently spoke with Rotten Tomatoes. During the interview, he joked that Lucius not being in the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince film is a 'source of great embitterment in the Isaacs household'. He later went on to say, "He's in Azkaban so what can you do?"
He does certainly hope to return for Deathly Hallows, however he hasn't heard whether he will be or when filming will begin. Although, those who have read the seventh book know our favorite Slytherin dad returns in the last book, so let's hope Jason is signed up soon! |
