Harry Potter Star Evanna Lynch Reveals She ‘Nearly Forgot’ She Was Part Of The Wizarding World Franchise: ‘It Is An Enormous Privilege…’

As an ardent fan of the magical world of Harry Potter, I find myself utterly captivated by the heartfelt words of Evanna Lynch, who played the enchanting Luna Lovegood. It’s awe-inspiring to learn about her profound connection with this fantastical universe and how it has become her safe haven, a sanctuary where she found acceptance, warmth, and belonging.


Actress Evanna Lynch, known for her role as Luna Lovegood in the Harry Potter series, admitted she almost forgot she was part of the magical franchise. Lynch first appeared in 2007’s Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix alongside fellow stars Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson. Her character, Luna, was a kind and eccentric student from Ravenclaw House who befriended Harry. Continue reading to learn more!

In a recent chat with CNET, actress Evanna Lynch shared details about her new venture in the Harry Potter world – an Audible-exclusive audiobook named From the Wizarding Archive. For this project, Lynch has contributed her voice as one of the narrators, aiming to make these magical tales even more captivating for listeners by reading them aloud.

Reflecting on our memorable collaboration, I shared heartwarming anecdotes about my time starring as Luna Lovegood in four films from this blockbuster franchise. Amazingly, I find myself momentarily taken aback when I realize that I was a part of this extraordinary journey.

Responding to questions about her ongoing involvement in the Harry Potter universe post-2011, Lynch expressed, “It feels like a sanctuary for me,” hinting at a sense of nostalgia, “I might be revisiting my childhood comforts, but it’s more than that.” She implies a deeper connection as well.

In her own words, she’s found the sense of belonging in a room has been hard to grasp for her. However, within the magical world of Harry Potter, she has not only been welcomed but also cherished and celebrated. Actress from “My Name Is Emily” considers it a great honor to experience such warmth and comfort, stating that it’s not common for an unconventional child to find a lifelong community like this.

Afterward, the actress confessed that she typically shies away from watching series films because of her deep emotional connection to them. She revealed that she had just seen Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and found herself completely engrossed in the world, for a moment forgetting that she played a crucial part in the movie itself.

She expressed, “Initially, I found myself casually observing it. A powerful sense of longing for belonging to that realm arose within me, followed by the realization, ‘I’m already a part of it!’ Through their dedication, fans have ensured that world remains vibrant and significant in my life.”

As an ardent admirer, I’ve been on a perpetual quest to discover a sense of camaraderie that mirrors the deep connection I felt within the Harry Potter community, but so far, nothing has quite captured that magic yet. However, it brings me immense joy to remain a recognizable figure in the enchanting world of Harry Potter.

Currently, all eight enchanting Harry Potter films can be enjoyed by streaming on Peacock.
