Wordless Wednesday - Nice Villains

After my last post contained a resource about "Nice Villains," it caught the curiosity of one reader. As a result, here is more about it.
This is actually a reading passage that goes behind the scenes to look at the actors and actresses who play these villainous roles.
Margaret Hamilton, the witch from The Wizard of Oz, was probably the kindest woman whoever lived! My story highlights her as a "Nice villain."
Alan Rickman, who played a pseudo villain in the Harry Potter films and a definite villain in Die Hard, was always a favorite among his coworkers due to his kind demeanor.
So this is what I am refering to by the term "Nice villains."
So if you are interested, check out my reading comprehension passage and questions about villains on TpT.
Answers included!

Ha! Of course, there are nice actors playing the bad guys but it's so hard for me to see Rickman being kind. I see him with his witch mother in Robin Hood, lolol. I was sorry to hear of his passing. He was very good at his craft.

Answering your the q. you asked me earlier: ELA (high school).

Cool villians are priceless and we enjoy them too!

Even Larry Linville, who played Frank Burns on MASH, was a wonderful guy.. Besides, without a villian, there probably wouldn't be a story.

It is a testament to the versatility of these actors that they are able to take on such challenging roles.
I loved Tom Hanks playing the villain in the movie “Road to Perdition”.

You don't need to be vile to play a villain!

I have heard so many good things about Alan Rickman. He really did know how to play the villain, but from so man accounts was a kind and gentle man.
