Social Media Roundup: Climate Advocacy and a Trip Down Memory Lane
Welcome to another edition of Social Media Roundup. Over the past few weeks, Wizarding World stars have been advocating for causes, sharing updates on their current projects, finding hidden treasures, and trying their hands at the latest viral meme.
Bonnie Wright will be attending the Study Hall Climate Positivity at Scale on January 31 to talk about all things education, information, and action.
Emma Watson has also been advocating to protect our Earth. As a lover of fashion, Emma posted information about her partnership with the ThredUp Fashion Footprint Calculator, which helps people calculate the carbon footprint of their wardrobe. She also shared tips on how to reduce the carbon impact of our clothes, such as thrifting and air-drying items.
Evanna Lynch’s Kinder Beauty Box, which promotes vegan and cruelty-free products, has reached its thirteenth edition, and Evanna took to Instagram to celebrate.
Advocating for causes isn’t the only thing Evanna has been sharing on social media these past weeks. She also took a trip down memory lane by visiting the Warner Bros. Studio Tour London – The Making of Harry Potter, where she stumbled across some molds of her feet that were taken for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
Also taking a trip down memory lane was Chris Rankin (Percy Weasley), although his trip is rather puzzling! Rankin found a copy of a script for the TV series Sherlock in his office but appears to have no idea how it got there.
Rankin has just finished a run in a pantomime production of The Wizard of Oz in Kent but has teased fans with an announcement that he will release a song cover on his YouTube channel.
Erm. I’ve recorded a new cover song for the YouTube.
It’s taken me 3 days, but apparently I’m a perfectionist 😂.
Will get that up tomorrow.

Jessie Cave (Lavender Brown) is currently starring in Cave Women: Work in Progress alongside her sister, Bebe Cave. She posted an update of a new background for the show, which is running until April 4 at the Soho Theatre in London.
There’s a new meme making the rounds on social media, and a couple of Wizarding World stars have already tried their hands at it. This photo challenge was first started by none other than country star Dolly Parton and plays on how people present themselves on social media platforms.
Tom Felton was the first magical alumnus to jump on the challenge.
And Katie Leung (Cho Chang) put her own spin on the challenge, showing that she is the same across all social media platforms!
Finally, Saturday, January 25 saw celebrations for the Lunar New Year, and the cast of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in London took to Instagram to wish fans a happy New Year.
That’s it for this edition of Social Media Roundup. Check back in soon for more updates from your favorite Wizarding World stars.
