The Sunday Mail has a new interview with Tiana Benjamin, who played Angelina Johnson in the first 4 Harry Potter films.
“It was a very, very, very small part. Angelina was captain of the Quidditch team for Gryffindor House. It always comes up in interviews but my mum has told me to stop talking about it because it’s getting embarrassing. It looks like I’m bigging myself up so much and it’s getting a bit cringe-making. But I am so proud to have been even a small part of Harry Potter that I can’t help going into it.”
I was signed to do Order Of The Phoenix when I got offered EastEnders. I couldn’t believe my luck. Initially, it looked like the whole thing could be worked around the Harry Potter film, which was being filmed over nine months. But the dates kept changing, it all got a bit tricky and my agent told me I had to make a choice. I got very upset initially but then I realised I was being selfish and should be grateful for having the choice. It was lucky they realised before they started filming or I could have ended up with nothing.
