RIP

Let's all raise our wands in tribute for a beloved actress from the world of Harry Potter. Helen McCrory, the actress who played Narcissa Malfoy in the Harry Potter franchise, sadly passed away today at the age of 52.

Her husband Damian Lewis wrote on Twitter on Friday:

"I'm heartbroken to announce that after a heroic battle with cancer, the beautiful and mighty woman that is Helen McCrory has died peacefully at home, surrounded by a wave of love from friends and family. She died as she lived. Fearlessly. God we love her and know how lucky we are to have had her in our lives. She blazed so brightly. Go now, Little One, into the air, and thank you."

According to Variety, McCrory began her career on stage and appeared in more than 25 productions during the 1990s through the mid 2010s. Her stage credits included Macbeth, Pride and Prejudice, As You Like It, Medea and many more. She joined the Harry Potter family in The Half-Blood Prince, playing Narcissa Malfoy, the mother of Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton) and wife to Lucius Malfoy (Jason Isaacs). She came back to play the role one last time in the two-part finale of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. This amazing actress will be very missed and our hearts go out to her family!

Helen Elizabeth McCrory OBE was an English actress. After studying at the Drama Centre London, she made her stage debut in The Importance of Being Earnest in 1990. Other stage roles include playing Lady Macbeth in Macbeth at Shakespeare's Globe, Olivia in Twelfth Night and Rosalind in As You Like It in the West End. Wikipedia
