2) Imelda Staunton as Dolores Umbridge in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Imelda Staunton made Dolores Umbridge the character everyone loves to hate in the Harry Potter series. With her sickly sweet smile, condescending voice, and love for pink cardigans, she hid her cruelty behind a mask of politeness. Staunton played Umbridge with such precision that fans hated her more than Voldemort. Umbridge wasn’t just a bad teacher; she was a tyrant who inflicted pain on students for stepping out of line. Her smugness, her rigid control over Hogwarts, and her twisted belief in her own righteousness made her unbearable.
