Posted by AccioRon Jul 20th 2006

I really like her......let's just hope she's a good Luna.


Posted by Annalisse Jul 20th 2006

Going to watch right now. Hope I'm not disappointed.


Posted by kaite1189 Jul 20th 2006

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?


Posted by colourmeconfused Jul 20th 2006

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.


Posted by Fluffy Jul 20th 2006

coooool!!! I'm so excited to see her as Luna in OOTP!!!


Posted by emptystar Jul 20th 2006

I think she's great for the part. Perfect voice tone too.


Posted by eloigi Jul 20th 2006

i LOVE her, shes perfect! blown away....im really pleased, i cant wait for the film!


Posted by harryetmoi Jul 20th 2006

She is soo much like Luna!! dan and emma were right!


Posted by x_LifE_Is_gOOd_x Jul 20th 2006

top 10! yeah shes gonna make a PERFECT Luna!


Posted by Butterbeer_Addict Jul 20th 2006

Luna is one of my favorite charecters, so I'm really glad they found someone so PERFECT!


Posted by dobbyfreak Jul 20th 2006

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!


Posted by crazy_clare_123 Jul 20th 2006

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


Posted by lucyloo Jul 20th 2006

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


Posted by sunnygirly2k4 Jul 20th 2006

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.


Posted by TheFifthMarauder Jul 20th 2006

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!!!


Posted by Weazley_is_MY_King Jul 20th 2006

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!


Posted by megali Jul 20th 2006

There's more on the newsround website


Posted by scurvy_cur Jul 20th 2006

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!


Posted by TheFifthMarauder Jul 20th 2006

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?


Posted by Luna_Lovegood Jul 20th 2006

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*


Posted by Grub Jul 20th 2006

"*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.


Posted by jerod Jul 20th 2006

**cough** hair color isn't important** cough


Posted by bookworm021 Jul 20th 2006

how did you guys get to see it cause i went on the site and couldnt find the video?


Posted by Grub Jul 20th 2006

"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 :)


Posted by TheFifthMarauder Jul 20th 2006

The hair colour isn't important!!!!!! She still looks great as Luna! And she definately does not look like a female Malfoy....


Posted by colourmeconfused Jul 20th 2006

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.


Posted by bookworm021 Jul 20th 2006

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.


Posted by hermy007 Jul 20th 2006

Is that a radish earring i see? SHe is PERFECT! Just the Luna I imagined. Off to see the interview!


Posted by Pinkslips Jul 20th 2006

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?


Posted by cool_varzz Jul 20th 2006

hey trust me pple i think this gal is not gonna disappoint us......way 2 go!


Posted by jerod Jul 20th 2006

"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?


Posted by Carly87 Jul 20th 2006

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!!!


Posted by lilyhpfan23 Jul 20th 2006

I hope they put the video up soon!!!


Posted by Shadowswordth Jul 20th 2006

Where can I see a video of her interview?


Posted by Bobble Jul 20th 2006

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!


Posted by marsisbrighttonight Jul 20th 2006

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!


Posted by Pinkslips Jul 20th 2006

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]


Posted by Grub Jul 20th 2006

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?


Posted by Up_A_Mountain Jul 20th 2006

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.


Posted by Kareen Jul 20th 2006

Aww... she's so cute. I can't wait to see her as Luna in the movies!


Posted by Janeykins Jul 20th 2006

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 :)


Posted by Up_A_Mountain Jul 20th 2006

Just checked the Newsround site and I can watch the interview.


Posted by bookworm021 Jul 20th 2006

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.


Posted by Patronus Jul 20th 2006

yay. i'm glad that everyone approves of her


Posted by gingertrentontenn Jul 20th 2006

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.


Posted by Grub Jul 20th 2006

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.


Posted by Samantha_Weasley Jul 20th 2006

she looks really shy in the video;;or sounds it i mean


Posted by LacewingFlies Jul 20th 2006

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.


Posted by flibbertigibbit Jul 20th 2006

They make a fuss about Hogsmeade, but I assure you, Harry, it's not all it's cracked up to be. All right, the sweetshop's rather good, and Zonko's Joke Shop is frankly dangerous, and yes, the Shrieking Shack's always worth a visit, but really, Harry, apart from that you're not missing anything.
