Helen McCrory(1968-2021) one of the most versatile British actress who was popular nationwide for her 2009 role as “Narcissa Malfoy” and recently for the Peaky Blinders died in 2021 at the age of 52. Her demise saddened the fans of Harry Potter and the fans of Peaky Blinders. Her Husband Damian Lewis announced the news on Social Media.

Ms. McCrory was a familiar face to London theater audiences and to British television and film viewers well before she won wider recognition in the Harry Potter movies. She won many awards and was the audience favorite.

From Richard Harris who played the role of Dumbledore to Narcissa Malfoy played by Helen McCrory, the sudden deaths of many Legendary actors we have ever known has saddened one and all of us. Besides, the actors mentioned above, there are many legends who are longer with us. I personally want everyone reading this to remember them in our hearts forever and ever. Always!
