aww her voice is squeeky i just watched it she seems nice
I really like her......let's just hope she's a good Luna.
Going to watch right now. Hope I'm not disappointed.
thats cool, i still think we have to wait for the movie to tell if she is right for the part but this def. helps! and i know this is annoying but 2nd, 3rd?
She was amazing. Her accent is perfect; soft, thoughtful, and adorably Irish. Also, she looks so Luna-esque, and has a total Luna-ish vibe. I'm so excited for OotP, now. She's one of the best likenesses to my mental image we've had so far.
coooool!!! I'm so excited to see her as Luna in OOTP!!!
I think she's great for the part. Perfect voice tone too.
i LOVE her, shes perfect! blown away....im really pleased, i cant wait for the film!
She is soo much like Luna!! dan and emma were right!
top 10! yeah shes gonna make a PERFECT Luna!
Luna is one of my favorite charecters, so I'm really glad they found someone so PERFECT!
luna is my all-time favorite character (with the exceptions of hermione and dobby), and i think she will be great. she's about 90% of how i pictured her!
forgot 2 say yay i was first post. i watched it then ran 2 the computer and read the rest of the interview then went on the gr8est site in the world ***********~MUGGLENET~*********** am i obsessed??? lol
he voice is just perfect, i wasnt sure when i heard she had an irish accent, but the dreamy quality is fantastic!! i wish her all the luck in the world for the film - i know she'll be great!! x x
I saw it on Newsround and hher Irish accent is so cute! It is like Luna has stepped out of the book, and her voice even has Luna's dreamlike quality to it. She is perfect, just like J.K. said.
She looks exactly like i pictured Luna to be!!! She has the whole 'wide eye' thing going on and her voice sounds nice and thoughtful. Like Luna's dreamy voice. I can't wait!!!
I think Evanna will do a great job! She's pretty close to how I pictured Luna, and she's a huge Potter fan, so she'll know how Luna is. I pretty confident that she'll make the movie awesometastic!
There's more on the newsround website
i like her she seems like she could be a good Luna, her voice is deffintely great for Luna and she is kinda spaced out too which of course is a good sign!
She'll just be perfect in the 5th movie. Everyone in the interview said so even J.K and who knows the characters better than her?
Words can't express my jealousy, but I'm really happy for Evanna. At least she's a big Potter fan and not jus some random girl who wanted to be famous. My brother's being a real prat and thinking of all these ways Evanna might die so that I could get that part and I keep telling him to shup up cos that's absolutely awful x_x I AM STILL DISAPPOINTED ABOUT HOW THEY DYED HER HAIR. It's meant to be dirty blonde and scraggly [I think that's the word JKR used] not platinum blonde and straight. *cough*female malfoy*cough*
"*cough*female malfoy*cough*" I think they're trying to distinguish her from Hermione's hair color. It'd be fine if they actually HAD Emma Watson's hair to be a dark brown, but since #3 it hasn't. In fact, it has been bordering on blonde. So I guess they're just trying to make Luna unique. Besides, it's not a malfoy blond. It's a moon blonde.
**cough** hair color isn't important** cough
how did you guys get to see it cause i went on the site and couldnt find the video?
"how did you guys get to see it cause i went on the site and couldnt find the video?" It was on television today on BBC. The rest of us who didn't see it there are waiting for newsround to move their rearends and get the clip going :)
The hair colour isn't important!!!!!! She still looks great as Luna! And she definately does not look like a female Malfoy....
You know, I thought her hair was pretty. In the first pictures we got of her, it was lot more blonde, but in the interview it looked much paler and gentler.
yeah where is the video cause i did go on the site and it wasnt there please tell me where i can view it i even went on her site and i couldnt see it there either.
Is that a radish earring i see? SHe is PERFECT! Just the Luna I imagined. Off to see the interview!
I must be blind O.O I can't see the interview! At least I don't think I can. I can read it, but view it, I don't think so. AHHHH! And she is a perfect Luna don't you think?
hey trust me pple i think this gal is not gonna disappoint us......way 2 go!
"you can watch the full interview with Evanna on the Newsround Broadband player from around 6.10pm on Thursday" i'd think they're talking GMT and it's 6:43 GMT,interview isn't there,what gives?
Aww, I really like her. She looks different from the Luna that I have in my own mind but I think she is going to be perfect for the role. Even in the pictures she looks sort of dreamy and out of it. Can't wait for OOTP!!!
I hope they put the video up soon!!!
Where can I see a video of her interview?
Evanna has a beautiful soft Irish accent, I really like her voice! I can't wait to see what she's like in the film. She seems really nice!
Evanna seems really nice! im glad she was picked because she's a major fan of the books and not some random kid who wanted to be in a movie...like she really knows the character and all...and she looks like luna too! I hope they put up the video soon!
Heh, nevermind, I found the Newsbound player x] She does have a very nice soft accent eh? I thinks she's absolutely PERFECT for the role. She'll knock us off our feet x]
It says you can watch the interview on the broadband player, but the interview isn't up! What's up with newsround? They having a massive brainfart right now?
She seems like she is going to be a great Luna. She has a slight physical resemblance to my Luna but it is her personality that makes her. In the interview she had an air about her that was extremely like Luna and her voice is soft and dreamy. I think she'll be fantastic in the role.
Aww... she's so cute. I can't wait to see her as Luna in the movies!
awww its so great she was a fan and her dreams came true! though i think its harsh that people judge her thinking shes not good as luna when we havent seen her act yet! theyre just jealous :)
Just checked the Newsround site and I can watch the interview.
i finally saw the video of the interview of the one playing luna it was so good i thought she was perfect for luna before and now i think she was the only choice for luna nice radish earrings and irish accent.
yay. i'm glad that everyone approves of her
I agree with TheFifthMarauder. She is exactly what I pictured Luna to look like when I read the book. She is cute and tiny. She also looks like she is the quiet and shy type. I think she will be perfect.
ah, okay. I found it. Gosh, that's a low bit-rate video. I hope someone else in the community recorded it so that we can get a better quality clip.
she looks really shy in the video;;or sounds it i mean
She is absolutey perfect for Luna- the dreamy voice, the wide-eyed look... I actually like her hair- it looks right for Luna for me.
stupid real player. does anyone have the interveiw on windows media or youtube?
