Evanna lives in Termonfeckin with her 3 siblings and her parents,
Mairead, and her younger brother, Patrick, grew up and attend
school in the small town. She is enrolled at Our Lady’s College,
Greenhills, an all-girls Catholic school.
A die-hard fan of Harry Potter, Evanna has read the books several
times and even has a copy of Order signed by JK Rowling herself.
She painted her bedroom orange and transcribed her favourite
quotes from the books in turquoise on her walls. Even her cats are
subject to her Potter fascination. She has two: Luna and
Dumbledore; sadly, her cat Crookshanks passed away.
Hospitalized at the time of Order’s release, Evanna’s parents got
permission for her to leave to pick up her copy of the book. She
wore her Potter gear with pride, even painting ‘I love Harry
Potter’ down the length of her arms.
Prior to landing the role as Luna, Evanna wrote to JK Rowling. She
talked of her love of the novels and her desire to act in the
films, but figured it would never happen as she lives in a sleepy,
uneventful town. JK actually wrote her back, encouraging her to
pursue her dreams. And, Rowling said, she shouldn’t be too hard on
Termonfeckin – “it does have a brilliant name! And I come from a
very sleepy place."
When the auditions for Luna were announced, Evanna was determined
to try out. Her mother didn’t think she would stand a chance and
tried to prevent her from auditioning. However, her father could
see his daughter was very serious about it and took her to London
for the casting call.
She has been quoted to say “I really wanted to go, because if I
didn't I never would have known, and I'd have been annoyed with
myself.” Being such a big fan, Evanna loved Luna from the start
and always wanted to play her.
The luck of the Irish held out for Evanna. She was picked out of
15,000 girls who auditioned for the role of Luna. Shortly after
being called back for a screen test with Harry Potter himself,
Daniel Radcliffe, she was informed of her success and was shocked.
Once idolizing the Potter actors, she can now count herself among
them. They helped bring to life something she loved, and now she
gets to do that for others.
