Evanna Lynch has joined the Harry Potter actors on Twitter, you can follow her at Evy_Lynch. Additionally, The Irish Times report that Evanna Lynch spoke to a group of 30 primary school students at Dublin City University in Ireland this past Saturday. She talks about her experience on the Potter films as well as some of the actors and actresses she has worked with.  Some snippets from the article may be read below.

“I don’t think she is weird, she is completely herself. She is okay with being eccentric and a little different,” she said of the character who made her name. Lynch is just 19 but she told the class she could remember a time when the Harry Potter books were not the big deal they are now. The students would have no conception of a time before Harry Potter.

There was no shortage of questions for the actor, who will sit her Leaving Certificate and intends to emigrate to London during the summer to pursue an acting career. Each response elicited another forest of hands from a knowledgable audience. What is her favourite Harry Potter book/film/scene/character? What was it like to see Dumbledore die? What was it like to act alongside computer generated characters such as the Dooby, the house-elf, or Thestrals, the winged horse? Was there anybody on set she did not like? “No,” she replied.

Lynch also provided some insights into the cast and characters of the film franchise that fans will find interesting. She met author JK Rowling about five times and had written to her before getting the part. “She’s so warm. I’m going to write to her and tell her about this course. She would be really chuffed about it.”
