Everything about Natalia Tena totally explained
Natalia Gastiain Tena (born
November 1,
1984) is an
English actress and musician.
Tena is of
Spanish descent and was educated at
Bedales School, where she was a contemporary of
Lily Allen. She speaks fluent Spanish.
Tena made her professional debut as Ellie in
About a Boy (2002), and began acting full time in 2003. She has played lead roles in stage adaptations of
Gone to Earth in 2004, and
Nights at the Circus in 2006, and has appeared in smaller roles in other productions, including
Shared Experience's production of
Bronte in 2005.
She last appeared in
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix as
Nymphadora Tonks, a role she'll reprise in the film adaptation of
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. When she went to her audition, she claimed that she didn't know that it was a bigg(er) part, and thought it was an extra. She also claimed to have tripped over a chair and a table, giving the impression that she was clumsy, though she claims not to be. Although her appearance in
Order of the Phoenix was relatively brief, she hosted a behind-the-scenes featurette entitled "Trailing Tonks" for the subsequent DVD release. Tena is credited as producer and director of the featurette.
In 2007 Tena joined the band
Nat Jenkins and the Delmars, in which she sings and plays
accordion. During the aforementioned DVD featurette
Trailing Tonks, Tena performs an original Christmas-themed blues song on guitar, claiming to have composed it while working as a
busker on the
London Underground (although she appears to state this with tongue in cheek).
In 2008 she'll tour the UK in
The Clean House as well as featuring in the film
Lecture 21.
