Dear reader,
It’s not my intention to give you hopes that may never come true. I just want to share a dream with you. Perhaps a dream we can only dream, but at least I’ll be in good dreaming company.
It is the dream of almost every writer I know to hear that his or her work will be transformed into a film. It probably won’t come as a surprise that I would love to see Hilda on the big screen. And the smaller ones after that. So much has happened after the first short story about the wicked witch that I think she has earned the right to appear in a film. And that brought me to asking around a bit. The question I had was:
“Who would be a good actress to play Hilda?”
I had several responses, and I would like to share those with you. A very good one was:
 Bette Midler. She did a great witch in “Hocus Pocus”. I can see her do wonderful Hilda provided the teeth are altered a little bit. 😉 |
 Evanna Lynch. Known to most people from the Harry Potter films. She has the right amount of oddness (she proved that) and quirkiness to be Hilda. |
Yes. A Hilda the Wicked Witch film. Really. I’ll dream on a little longer and then go back to writing book 18 in the series…
