Evanna Lynch Briefly Forgets She Was in Harry Potter

Evanna Lynch Briefly Forgets She Was in Harry Potter

As a self-proclaimed aficionado of all things magical and cinematic, I can confidently say that the Harry Potter movie series holds a special place in my heart. However, it seems that even the enigmatic Luna Lovegood, portrayed by the captivating Evanna Lynch, has forgotten her own role in this iconic franchise!


The Harry Potter film collection is widely recognized as one of the greatest and impactful fantasy saga ever made. However, it seems that Evanna Lynch, who portrayed Luna Lovegood in these movies, appears to have forgotten her involvement. Lynch initially brought Luna Lovegood, the eccentric Ravenclaw student, to life in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Interestingly, not only was Lovegood a standout character from the movie series, but The Order of the Phoenix also marked Evanna Lynch’s first credited acting role on screen.

For any Potter fan, playing such a beloved character alongside acting royalty like Alan Rickman, Brendan Gleeson, Gary Oldman, Mark Williams, David Thewlis, and Michael Gambon, should be an unforgettable experience. But Evanna Lynch, channeling the scatterbrained nature of her character, completely forgot she starred in the franchise during a recent re-watch.

In an interview with CNET, Evanna Lynch shared that she rarely watches any of the Harry Potter films due to the intense emotions and nostalgia associated with the experience. However, during a casual viewing of The Prisoner of Azkaban on TV with her partner, Lynch felt a sudden urge; “I want to be a part of that world.” It turned out her partner had to remind her that she already was, for quite some time. Explaining the moment, Lynch said:

“I usually avoid watching movies because they get too emotional for me, but the other day, Prisoner of Azkaban was playing and my partner and I ended up watching it unconsciously. It triggered a powerful desire within me to be a part of that magical world, and then it struck me, ‘I’m already in it!'”

Ever since I stepped into the magical world of Harry Potter as Luna Lovegood, my career has blossomed across both stage and screen. Though I’ve tackled numerous roles in films, TV appearances, and short movies, it’s clear that nothing resonates with fans quite like the extraordinary realm of Harry Potter. As I put it myself, there’s something truly special about being a part of this enchanting universe.

As a die-hard cinema enthusiast, I must confess that the magical realm of Harry Potter has remained an integral part of my life, breathing life into it in ways no other community has managed thus far. I’ve tried to find that same camaraderie and connection elsewhere, but alas, none have matched its depth yet. And so, yes, I’m more than content to be a recurring presence in the enchanting world of Harry Potter – it feels like home.

There are three guarantees in life; death, taxes, and reboots. In April 2023, Max revealed that controversial author J.K. Rowling’s beloved Harry Potter books are being re-adapted, this time into a new TV series. Starring a completely new cast and creative team, the new series, which aims for a 2026 premiere, will adapt J.K. Rowling’s novels across multiple seasons.

Regardless of the many debates swirling around the author, J.K. Rowling herself will play an active role in crafting the upcoming series. She assures us that this new production will stick closer to the original source material compared to the film adaptations produced by Warner Bros.

Fans are passionately discussing a possible TV revival, but Daniel Radcliffe, who brought the iconic wizard to life in the initial films, is enthusiastic about the upcoming series. The actor expresses his eagerness to see certain aspects of J.K. Rowling’s books that didn’t make it into the movies being brought to life on screen again. Contrary to popular belief, Radcliffe has clarified that he won’t be making any kind of guest appearance or cameo in the new series.
