The popularity of Harry Potter movies was a great opportunity for the child actresses and the emerging adult actresses to build a successful career. We\u2019ve collected a list, of Harry Potter movies\u2019 young actresses and not so young actresses\u2019 achievements so far. Some of them were only for a few minutes in the spotlight but they still impressed us, and certainly are recognizable. Let\u2019s have a look at their fascinating transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clemence Poesy (Fleur Delacour) <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the fantasy world of Harry Potter, the girl\u2019s school students are full of fairy-tale beauties. Our first impression of Fleur Delacour was a beautiful and sophisticated French fairy, that was highlighted several times in the movie. Clemence Poesy proved to be perfect for this role. The French actress is 37 now and looks surprisingly youthful to her age. Fleur played a decisive role in her career, but she had plenty of success since then such as 127 hours or TENER, which will be shown in 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Julianne Hough (Hufflepuff student) <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Julianne Hough, who plays a small role, became acquainted with the world of filming early. In her little side role, she had to shape an enthusiastically cheering Hufflepuff student. The career began in the following years of the beautiful actress, who is 31-year-old now. We’ve seen her in several movies and TV shows such as Safe Haven and Dancing with the stars. We are pretty sure we will see her on-screen in the following years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Afshan Azad (Padma Patil)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Padma Patil from Ravenclaw house was asked by Ron to be the partner at the Ball in the Goblet of Fire. She was very bored with the boy\u2019s company, so she left him. She hasn\u2019t played any significant roles since, but her beauty was recognized early. Now she works as a model and in social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Jessie Cave (Lavender Brown) <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"

Lavender Brown is a classmate of Harry in Gryffindor, who got a bigger role in the sixth episode (Half-Blood Prince). Ron starts a smaller romantic relationship with her, but then he bored early with her sticky style. In the rest of the episodes, she only appears as a background figure. Jessie Cave not only appeared in smaller roles in movies, but she started writing books such as Sunrise and Love Sick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Ellie Darcey-Alden (Lily Evans)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Young Lily appears only for just a few minutes on the screen, in Snape’s memory. Still, she’s left a lasting memory for the cast, as an innocent child actor loyal to her role in the book. Ellie Darcey-Alden only appears in smaller plays, she did not receive any greater roles so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Scarlett Byrne (Pansy Parkinson)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The lovely baby-faced actress had no easy task when it came to be shaping Pansy Parkinson because as an ever cheerful and kind girl she had to turn herself into a real tyrannical little bastard.  Pansy Parkinson was a Slytherin girl who had an affair with Draco Malfoy. Scarlett is more active in social media these days, with fewer roles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Eleanor Columbus (Susan Bones)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Eleanor Columbus is no other than Chris Columbus’ daughter, so it was clear that she could play a small role in this box office success. The young girl has undergone a spectacular transformation. It is said that she will play some roles in the Netflix series. Let\u2019s cheer for her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Angelica Mandy (Gabrielle Delacour)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Harry was brought to the Triwizard Tournament to make a serious decision in which, besides his own friend, another person’s life had to be saved. He also rescued Fleur\u2019s little sister, earning her double points, both for the race and for humanity. Angelica Mandy transformed from a little girl into a beautiful young woman over the years. Nowadays she only appears in social media and sometimes in smaller acts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Georgina Leonidas (Katie Bell) <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Katie Bell is a member of Harry’s Quidditch team who plays as a beater in Gryffindor. In Half-Blood Prince (part six), Katie experiences a traumatic event. Georgina Leonidas portrays dramatically well, almost losing her life by touching the damn necklace, which originally was intended for Hogwarts director Albus Dumbledore. We later learn that the necklace was sent by Draco Malfoy under Lord Voldemort’s supervision. Nowadays we can notice her in theatrical performances and in voiceovers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Shirley Henderson (Moaning Myrtle)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Who wouldn\u2019t remember Moaning Myrtle, who became a truly decisive character by the end of the movie? She helped Harry in the fights against Lord Voldemort. We\u2019ve seen Shirley in smaller roles in Trainspotting and Bridget Jones movies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Genevieve Gaunt (Original Pansy Parkinson)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to eight episodes and at least as many years, we’ve been able to follow the growing up of child actors. One of the most spectacular examples of the transformations is the beautiful grown-up Genevieve’s. Pansy Parkinson’s younger-generation actress is now working as an influencer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Hebe Beardsall (Ariana Dumbledore)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Hebe Beardsall plays a character, who is only known from book seven, The Deathly Hallows. She plays the role of Ariana Dumbledore, the younger sister Albus and Aberforth Dumbledore, who died at a young age. We can only see her in a single scene when she leads Harry into the castle through a secret, uncontrolled tunnel. The young actress is acting in smaller roles these days, but she is waiting for a great breakthrough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Katie Leung (Cho Chang)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Katie Liu Leung is a Scottish actress. In Harry Potter we met her as the first lover of the protagonist. She was also featured in 2016’s The Foreigner, but she hasn’t played in any major movies since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Tiana Benjamin (Angelina Johnson)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

One of the most important events of Hogwarts life is Quidditch. The young witch was a great talent in this sport, so she quickly became a prominent figure in the Gryffindor team. Fred Weasley invites her to the ball, let’s just say, we know why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Shefali Chowdhury (Parvati Patil)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Harry Potter in his fourth year at Hogwarts, invites the young girl to the opening dance of the Triwizard Tournament. Unfortunately, Harry messes things up and makes Parvati very bored. Shefali Chowdhury has turned into a very pretty woman in real life, so we can see her in several Bollywood movie roles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

When we first met Ron’s little sister, Ginny, we saw a shy little freckled girl. Over the years, her film-like character and, in real life, the actress has grown up as a beautiful charismatic woman. Later Ginny becomes Harry’s wife and mother of their children. Since then Bonnie Wright played in minor roles in several smaller budget movies. We will probably see her in a lot more plays in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Emma Watson (Hermione Granger)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Only a few can compete with the intelligence of Hermione Jean Granger. Many say that probably she was the brightest witch of her time in Hogwarts. In real life the only difference that she is much less strict than in the movie. During her studies she was first in class and then she came up with several noble things to support them with her name and face. We can say that Emma made the best use out of the movie. Everybody can recall a movie with her face. She become a real A-listed actress over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Daphne de Beistegui (Lily Luna Potter)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

To avoid confusion “Lily Luna Potter” is not Harry’s mom, who we’re talking about is her daughter. Daphne de Beistegui plays Harry’s daughter Lily in the “19 Years Later” scene at the end of Deathly Hallows and pulls it off pretty well. If you compare the two pictures you see here, it’s pretty clear that Daphne has grown significantly since then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Michelle Fairley (Mrs. Granger)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In the first part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, she appears as Hermione’s mother.  Hermione returns home to magically plant false memory for both of her parents, to forget that she exists. This is not the only time Michelle Fairley plays the role of a tragic mother. Years later, she played the character of Catelyn Stark in Game of Thrones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Helena Bonham Carter (Bellatrix Lestrange)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Of all the ladies on the list, Helena Bonham Carter is probably the best known. The actress’s characterful face and marriage to Tim Burton helped her to showcase her talent in many blockbuster movies. She played Bellatrix \u2019s role very well as Voldemort\u2019s most dedicated and loyal ally, and of course a crazy wicked witch.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps in the Harry Potter universe, Luna Lovegood is the most polarizing personality. To be honest she’s not a typical girl and that\u2019s why so many people love her. Evanna Lynch portrays Luna beautifully, taking advantage of her strange abilities. Since then, Evanna played minor roles, did voice acting and become an activist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Anna Shaffer (Romilda Vane)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

When Harry entered his sixth year at Hogwarts, everyone wanted to be with him. With the gain of his popularity, he becomes a role model for so many other students, including Romilda Vane of Gryffindor. She wanted to be so badly with Harry that she tried to give him a love potion that eventually leads to disastrous results. Anna Shaffer played this role well and later she continued to work as an actress in other movies. Now she is known as Tris’s wizard on the popular Netflix show, The Witcher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Emma Thompson (Professor Trelawney) <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The actress who plays Professor Trelawney has to be mentioned in this list because she was so well-masked that only a few viewers could recognize her. She played Harry’s fortune-telling teacher, who usually makes false and bold predictions about the future, except those two times she was very exact about Dumbledore and Harry himself. Emma Thompson, a 60-year-old actress, has been featured in several movies before and after HP. The most notables are Sense and Sensibility and Ghost in the House that made her the only person in history to win and Oscar for both acting and screenwriting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Miranda Richardson (Rita Skeeter) <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Image credits: pinterest.com<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The character of Rita Skeeter explicitly reflects the role of the always greedy media industry. Thanks to her exaggerated writings and her trashy personality, Rita’s character has been hated by many of the viewers. Actress Miranda Richardson proved to be a perfect match for this role with her face and voice play during Rita\u2019s portrayal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
