Helena Bonham Carter is mostly known for playing creepy roles in some of Tim Burton’s later films. Tim really took a liking to her and gave her the lead roles in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Corpse Bride, Big Fish, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, and Alice in Wonderland.
Perhaps her sickly thin and pale appearance is what Tim Burton has a fetish for. Owning up to her reputation for dark, edgy roles, she had been cast as Bellatrix Lestrange in the Harry Potter films. She was also famously known as the depressed Maria Singer in Fight Club.
Emma Thompson had some beef with Helena because she slept with her husband, Kenneth Branagh. The infamous affair had led to the divorce of the couple, and an extra 15 minutes of fame for Helena.
Here’s a quick recap of Helena’s long and fruitful career so far. She definitely didn’t play the weirdo all the time!
Here are all the Helena Bonham Carter nudes we could find, mainly from her films. Our favorites are probably Lady Jane and Wings of the Dove where her perfectly pale youthful body is on full display.

And here are her nude scenes from a bunch of other films like Dancing Queen (1993), Getting it Right (1989, La maschera (1988), Conversations with Other Women (2005), Henry VIII (2003) and The Heart of Me (2002).
Incidentally, if you’re really into the whole dark-goth thing/look that Carter rocks as a persona, we’ll recommend checking out Elvira’s nude photos and maybe some Pauley Perrette.
