| | Evanna Lynch on Luna Lovegood's style, fighting the resistance in Deathly Hallows II
Evanna Lynch spoke to Total Film Indonesia about Luna Lovegood's style being compared to that of singer Lady Gaga, if Harry and Luna would have ever been a good match romantically, and how her on-screen character has changed by Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. New photos of Evanna from a recent photo shoot can be found in our galleries. Quote: Well, if she met Lady Gaga, what would she say to her? Would she say, “I was here first”?
She wouldn’t… nothing shocks her, you know. Some people are like, “what are you wearing?” Luna would admire it. She’d be interested. She’d like diversity in everything. To be honest, I wouldn’t wear her things. Her clothes are fun to wear but I would feel too much looked at. But Luna is not doing it to make a fashion statement. She thinks radishes look nice on earrings so she’ll wear them. So I wonder what Lady Gaga would think of her. To be honest, I like Lady Gaga, but I think it’s more of an act. She does it for show business. Luna wouldn’t. That’s just herself. Have you ever met anyone who copies her clothes?
No. Luna’s colour scheme is like purple and turquoise and I think it’s just something you have to be really confident wearing, really. Luna’s not over confident; she’s just secure. I think most people my age, they’re either doing it to make a statement, like, “I’m going to be looked at”, or else they don’t care. I would like to be like that but to be honest, I’m a bit shy… I don’t like to be stared at, so much.
Quote: Luna, Neville and Ginny are leading the resistance at Hogwarts. Can you tell us a bit about that? Did you enjoy that character journey?
Yeah, that was really fun. I love how they sort of take over… when Harry comes back, and he and Ron comes into the Room of Requirement, and they’re like, “Oh, look at what they did!” It’s sort of like, um, I can’t remember … boys in a tree house and they have all these sleeping bags and these little statues in it… it’s really exciting. Harry’s the one who’s always taken the initiative.
Harry, Ron and Hermione, they’re like… “we have to fight”… but now they’re gone and Luna, Neville and Ginny, they do take over. They realize, they can do something, and what they do is very valuable. All their contribution… so that was nice. It’s not like in the fifth book, where we’re just introducing her. Oh, look that’s Luna, she’s kooky, she’s fun. Luna’s just not in the background. She’s there, she’s helping and she’s fighting. The scale of these films are much bigger than before. How was it different from you this time?
There was a whole different feel to them. Like they’re the end ones so nobody is going to be spared. We were all aware it was the end – there was a good spirit, we wanted to make it better and everything. It’s very hard to encompass that feeling.
Quote: If you could change the ending, would you?
No. Everyone’s happy and… (laughs) I know people complain about the epilogue, but I really liked it. A lot of people say it’s too nice, too cheesy, but the whole story is one big bloodbath, you know, there’s stress the whole time. There’s not one bit where Harry’s just like relaxed, and he’s watching TV, he’s not just playing on the Playstation, like most people have those moments. He’s always worrying and he’s always, like, “What does the prophecy mean? How can I do this? Horcruxes…everything!” I really like the end, that it ends nice, and he has children. I’d like to know more about Luna. Some have even thought she might end up with Harry…
I got a question back in there (she points to previous interview room): would you like it to be more raunchy? I was like, “oh, you’re mixing series here!” No, I don’t think Luna and Harry would at all. I just think she thinks differently to everyone. She’s really open minded. I think Harry would… I imagine him and Ginny.
While they’re great together, I imagine they have a really stormy sort of thing… argue a lot… throw things and shout. I think Luna wouldn’t be so much the romance and passion. She’d be more about exploring things, like she’d get really excited about a creature, and she’d want to share that with someone, so it’d be more a friendship. And I think Harry’s more about the passion.

I like the fact that she has been a Harry Potter fan for a long time and that reflects the very detailed answers she gives to interview questions. She sees into the characters and their situations as any hard core Harry Potter fan would as well.

Very nice interview with Evanna. Luna is easily one of my favorite characters. I like her assessment on Lady Gaga vs. Luna. I think she is spot on. Nice that she knows her character so well.

Luna and Lady Gaga to dress very crazily but cool. I think they would compare very well together. Lovely pic and interview with Evanna!

Evanna is a Harry/Ginny shipper.
Wonder how all the Loony Lions people will take that?

LOl, Love the whole Lady gaga comparison!
I wonder why she says 'When He and Ron walk in the Room of requirement..." Um where's Hermione?
I also love she's a Harry and Ginny shipper. I'll admit I was one of those at the end of the 5th book thinking Jo would go there with Harry and Luna but... they just don't work as a couple. Evanna had excellent viewpoints on why Harry and Ginny are a better match.

It's uncanny to see one of us, as part of the Harry Potter series; she's representing us and there couldn't have been anyone better. I love that she not only knows her character but the different points in the series as well and is able to apply them to situations.
On a side note, her opinion on the series matches mine. I liked the epilogue as well as the pairings, which many people forget is JKR's story, not theirs. She summed up the Luna relationship very well in terms of Harry and her getting together. "Throwing things..." Evanna knows her stuff.
I actually didn't realize the whole Luna vs. Lady Gaga relationship until someone pointed it out today on twitter so it's a bit ironic that Evanna talks about that here. Although, I think she sums up the hypothetical meeting very well. |

That's a really pretty picture of Evanna. Luna is a unique, one-in-a-million character, but it really seems like Evanna is in real life too. I love how she gets that Harry and Ginny are meant for each other!

It's funny, but i've always felt like Evanna really is one uf us. She was such a huge fan, probably like a lot of people here, and then she was chosen to play Luna. She wasn't just a random girl who wanted to play that part, she really knew and still knows her character very well. I can easily imagine her posting comments on Harry Potter news and everything we do right now!
From the first moment in OotP i saw Luna in her. That part was destined to be hers.

Cute picture! (but I prefer her with blonde hair)
Love the comparison between Luna and Lady Gaga! Both certainly do express themselves via their outfits! I always love it if people do that!
