Bonnie Wright

Plays: Ginny Weasley

Born: 17th February 1991

Bonnie Wright only auditioned for the role of Ginny Weasley because her brother told her she reminded him of the character. Her one-line part in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone grew far more than anyone could have expected, however, as the later books revealed her to become an active member of Dumbledore’s Army, and eventually the girl who captivates Harry Potter.

Her rise to fame has not been as closely monitored as the three principal actors, and therefore her other projects have been less well-known, but she has ventured beyond the Harry Potter sphere to appear in various films and television series.

More recently, Bonnie has turned to directing, and has just finished writing and directing a film starring fellow Potter actor David Thewlis. She is also engaged to Jamie Campbell Bower, who appeared in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1.
