Harry Potter Professor Sprout Actor Has Unusual Feud With Schwarzenegger
Harry Potter actor Miriam Margolyes recently discussed her unusual feud with Hollywood superstar Arnold Schwarzenegger. The former bodybuilder and Governor of California is no stranger to feuds. He famously had a longstanding grudge with action star Sylvester Stallone for the better part of the 80s, notably tricking the Rocky lead in taking the critical and box office dud, Stop!

Margoyles has had a long career in Hollywood, appearing in such films as Yentl, Little Shop of Horrors, and The Age of Innocence as Mrs. Mingott, which garnered her a British Film Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role.

However, it was her role as Mabel in the biblical action-thriller End of Days that sparked Margolyes' prolonged conflict with Schwarzenegger.
