Evanna Lynch

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2121541/

Sometimes you don’t know something is missing until it shows up.  From the first time Luna Lovegood shows up in the Harry Potter series, she is a breath of fresh air.  The Harry Potter series was expanding from the “Power Trio” to “Dumbledore’s Army”.  Luna shows up as the reverse Hermione.  If Hermione is logic, Luna is fantasy.  She is crazy but in a completely awesome way.  Because of the love for the character, people were nervous about who would play her in the films.

Their fears were quickly put to rest though.  Evanna Lynch was Luna Lovegood in the flesh.  She came in to audition for the role of Luna with no Hollywood acting experience and yet impressed the producers with her knowledge and imitation of the character.  She wore her own radish earrings that she had created and won everyone over including J.K. Rowling.  She is the ultimate ascended fangirl.
