On Twitter I saw some guy saying she was dumb for turning down the role because it would boost her career longevity.

😆

It's pretty funny seeing people discover Miriam Margolyes as if no one has paid attention to her since HP. Like she just started saying wild shit to the press out of nowhere.

I'm not surprised.
Aside the US and the paycheck, it doesn't seem like she enjoys big productions, not even HP. I remember Maggie Smith saying she had to stay for weeks on trailer in the middle of nowhere, only to film a few scenes. And Miriam was there too and they both spent their time complaining about it.

I'd love to live long enough to be an old lady, so rich I could turn down half a million dollars.

I wish we could ban the PopCrave Twitter account as a source. They cherry-pick these click bait sentences and don’t tell you their original source, which is frustrating when you want to see the context in which the comments were made. We may as well not use sources if something like this counts.

Georgia doesnt want her here either I assure her. Most white Brits around here are insufferable.
