SheKnows: Did your brother think you would be good as Ginny and tell you to try out for the part?

Bonnie Wright: That’s true. He’d read the first few books and he’d really loved them and he was like ‘Oh, you really remind me of the character of Ginny’ and I said ‘okay’ not knowing who that was, because we’d heard that they were doing the castings. That’s basically why I went for the casting really. I probably should say thanks to him.

SheKnows: These movies have been such a huge chunk of your life, Do you feel like you’ve missed anything by doing them year after year?

Bonnie Wright: I think I’ve missed out on that classroom dynamic when you are all learning together . My education has been quite one-to-one which is great, You do get a lot done in an hour compared to being in school and being interrupted.

SheKnows: Were you all schooled on set at the same time?

Bonnie Wright: Yes, when we were younger and everyone did similar subjects, there were more of us in the class. But as we became more specific in what we were doing, it was just one-to-one. But, to be honest, I think looking back at it now, it’s definitely enriched my childhood way more than it’s taken anything away. I think from working with everyone on set, everyone’s just so supportive and really driven in what they do so it’s been an inspiration. Their work ethic is something that rubbed off on all of us.

SheKnows: What must a guy never do if he doesn’t want to make you angry?

Bonnie Wright: Oooo, I don’t like guys when they love themselves too much. That’s a real push off. There’s got to be an equal feeling. Then I guess with us being sort of recognizable for what we do, I think when people treat you differently in that sense, it’s not right. Or they act differently. Be yourself.

SheKnows: There is the fun and comic use of some love potions in the film. If you really liked a guy, would you use a love potion on him if it were available and you knew it would work?

Bonnie Wright: God, yeah! (we laugh). Well, you could...but, would it wear off and then it’s short-lived? I could. It’s a little bit cheating but I don’t see why not. Give it a go.

SheKnows: How do you think young women should handle first love?

Bonnie Wright: It depends on if the feelings are shared. It’s quite difficult, and I think it’s shown very well in this film with the Lavender Brown thing with Ron, this idea that one of them can be much more obsessed than the other. It’s difficult at that age when you are finding out all different sorts of feelings and why you’re interested in boys but they still seem so immature. I think girls mature more quickly. If a guy shows an interest, get close to them and they might understand. And obviously be yourself. So many girls are pressured to physically look different or put on a different persona. Don’t be liked for someone else.
