JustJared.com has posted a new interview with actress Evanna Lynch who had her breakout role as Luna Lovegood in the Harry Potter films. In the interview Evanna talks about an upcoming role as well as much more! Some snippets from the interview may be read below. She also did a photoshoot and behind the scenes video for the site which you can see here (scroll down).

“I have a guest appearance on a TV show that’s premiering this summer,” the 20-year-old Irish actress teased to us. “I’ll be in the finale episode and hopefully it’ll turn into a more regular role. I’m just really excited about that. It’s a great series and has an amazing cast.”

JJ: How did shooting TV compare to your film experiences?
EL: I was excited and nervous because it was the first thing I did since Harry Potter, so it was the first thing I kind of felt like, you know this is job. Harry Potter was my childhood and it felt very safe and this was something I was excited about. I wanted to work and meet new people.

JJ: You have a Michael Jackson tattoo…
EL: Yeah, I’ve had that for a while. I got that on my 18th birthday. I just always wanted a tattoo and it’s a place where I don’t see it so I don’t ever get tired of it. I think it’s fun because people don’t expect it of me.

JJ: I know you like Disney. Who is your favorite princess?
EL: I love Ariel. I got her autograph. (laughs)

JJ: That would be an awesome movie, right?
EL: Yeah, absolutely yes! I think they should do like a dark one, like how they’ve done Snow White. Maybe they could do the real fairytale. The real fairy tale is where she dies at the end and he doesn’t love her in return.I think there’s sort of a message in there like wasted opportunities. Like she always wants to be this something. It is sad, but I think it would be interesting.

JJ: Would you dye your hair red?
EL: Absolutely, yeah. I can’t swim, though, so that’s a problem.

JJ: Do you have any secret hobbies?
EL: I do a lot of yoga…I’m training to be a teacher. I enjoy it. It keeps me calm. I like art. I go to art galleries a lot.
