The actress also regretted not receiving royalties for the merchandising of the saga
As a general rule, and when there is a production of such caliber, a large part of the cast of actors leaves quite happy with the final result or has great memories of the filming in which they were part. However, Not everything is always like this, and there are several exceptions. that either because of their residual role, or because of the conditions they were offered, they ended up disenchanted with these same productions.
One of these cases that we know in this sense is the Harry Potter saga. Among the numerous actors who went through the school, there is an actress who starred in ‘The Philosopher’s Stone’, but after the first feature film she did not appear in any of the remaining seven films. We talk about Zoë Wanamaker, who played the Professor Hoochwho was in charge of teaching flight to Hogwarts students.
“I only signed for one movie”
The truth is that with few flying scenes during the films, and having already passed the first course, his presence was not so necessary, however his absence was not due to that, but rather because he did not reach an economic agreement with the production company. , according to an interview with The Telegraph back in 2001 (also reported by our colleagues at Sensacine or Filmstars): “Some actors signed a contract for three films, but The money was so low that I felt insulted and only signed for one.”said the 75-year-old actress. “If they wanted me for a sequel, they would have to increase the fee.”
Furthermore, and seeing his statements, he would not have received any royalties for the subsequent commercialization of the franchise, not even for the use of his appearance in the video game for the film. In this sense, there could have been a 180 degree turn, since we must remember that in In 2018 they released the Hogwarts Mystery mobile game in which the flight teacher reappeared in the adventures of our young wizard.
