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.
In a new interview with Yahoo UK Daniel Radcliffe talks about his nomination sfor the MTV Movie Awards as well as his new roles in Kill Your Darlings and The Young Doctor’s Notebook.
“I don’t pay a huge amount of attention to the awards thing. In America people are much more open about their desire to win awards. I don’t have that. I never know quite what to make of it.” And asked about the chances of Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2 winning Best Movie when coming up against the likes of Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 1 and The Hunger Games, he simply said: “The wonderful thing about Harry Potter is that on the whole fans of this franchise are encouraged to explore and be open to lots of things. It’s not about you can only like one thing. Just stop fighting. Any inter-franchise war is about people trying to get their identity through a franchise. it shouldn’t be about being insular with what you love.”
He also talked to The Advocate about The Woman in Black, Kill Your Darlings, his involvement with The Trevor Project and more!
You portray Allen Ginsberg in your next film, Kill Your Darlings.
I feel I am incredibly lucky to be playing him. Despite the damage from his upbringing and his mother and what he went through, he really emerged into the most fully formed open, compassionate human being out of all of the Beats. He’s certainly the one you’d be most comfortable spending time around, I think. When you watch footage of him and William Burroughs together and see how much they care about each other and how close they were and the love between all those guys and the incredible sadness that brought them all together that they were all carrying in some degree. It’s great.
