| | |  Luna Lovegood open auditions this weekend!
Open auditions for the role of Luna Lovegood, a new Ravenclaw character in ' Order of the Phoenix', will be held this weekend in London.
They will take place THIS Saturday (January 14th) from 10am (tthough the queue will be open from 8am) and 2pm on 14 January, at the Central Hall Westminster, Storey's Gate, in London. Quote:
People attending must:
* Be between the ages of 13-16
* Live in the UK or Ireland
* Bring a passport/birth certificate with them
* Bring proof of your address
* Wear no costumes, make-up or high heels
Anybody who doesn't have a passport won't be seen, and neither will girls who don't live in the UK or Ireland, and Luna is the only part they're looking for. Quote:
They're just planning to take a photo of anyone they think has the right look, and will get back in touch with some of them for an audition.
Further information can be found here.
A video of the report (in which they talk to Fiona Weir from the Casting Department) can be seen here. Quote:
We have met lots of fantastic girls... but holding an open call is just a way of us making sure there isn't anyone we might have missed. No final decisions have been made.
Quote:
[Luna]'s very otherworldly, she's not like anybody else. She's almost an outsider who likes to watch people and she's slightly detached from the world. And she's a very interesting and unusual girl so it's that sort of quality we're looking for.
Thanks to Kaz for the tip!  | |

This is completely amazing and perplexing! This close to filming? They supposedly had someone cast... The actress backed out,methinks... But what of the other runners up? *ponders*

What idiot would drop out? No offence to whoever it was but there's no way you could back out. Hope they find the right person there. | |

Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

You don't have to be English, just British (they don't mean the same thing) and hair colour isn't important.

They never said they had her...only that they'd narrowed it down.

They cut it pretty close timewise with casting the role of Harry originally, too. I believe Dan was hired a month before they started filming Sorecerer's Stone.
Wow, this is so exciting! Such drama! I can't wait to see who they finally pick.
