Bonnie Wright: ‘I’m not acting now; I’ve moved into directing and writing independent films. I moved to New York earlier this year to work on that.

‘I really enjoy being on that side of it, and you have a lot more control that way, too.’

“No, no – it’s coincidental,” she laughs. “But I’m about to do my first adaptation of a short story into a short film, which is a new thing for me. It’s by an author called A.S. Byatt and it lends itself so neatly to film; the description, the dialogue, the pace are all so easily transferable. So it’s going to be a joy to adapt. But at the same time, it’s a different realm of directing someone else’s idea or vision. How close do you stay to the material? How much do you want to put a stamp of your own on to it?”

“Anyone can write 10 pages,” she says jokingly. “Writing a huge script that has so much to do with plot, specific screenwriting techniques and devices is a whole new world to me. Even at film school all the work we did was short-form. We obviously studied feature film, but we never got to make one over the course of a three-year degree, so this has been really interesting.”
