Filming about Harry Potter lasted almost fifteen years. All this time, millions of spectators carefully watched the adventures of the young wizard - from the first day at Hogwarts to the final battle with Voldemort. On the path of the brave Harry, both faithful friends and associates, and the worst enemies met. The masks of some witches and wizards were tried on by eminent actors, however, most students of the fairy-tale school first appeared in this movie. What did Harry Potter actors look like then? And now? How much have they changed?
Legendary trinity
Perhaps, of the “golden trio”, Emma Watson, a talented young woman who became famous after the role of the “memoir” of Hermione Granger, is now attracting the most attention. It is interesting to observe her amazing external transformation: from an angular teenager trying to look chic in strange dresses, she turned into a real beauty with a short haircut and a unique taste in clothing. Currently, Emma Watson is actively fighting for women's rights, speaking on behalf of the UN and traveling around the world. She did not abandon the cinema (fans will be interested in the film “It’s good to be quiet” with her participation), however, she did not focus on the movie career either. Let Watson become even more famous than some other Harry Potter actors, then and now are strictly separated in her life: now the star is more and more often removed for fashion magazines and is the face of Lancome.
As for Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint (Harry Potter and Ron Weasley, respectively), they remained very similar to their characters. Perhaps that is why both young men did not star in famous projects and chose to participate in more modest films and musicals.
Neville Longbottom
Many actors of "Harry Potter" then and now look completely different. A striking example, in addition to Emma, was Matthew Lewis - an ideal candidate for the role of the shy and clumsy Neville Dolgupups. Over the years of filming, he turned from a round-shouldered “whipping boy” into an attractive and confident young man - and thereby repeated the path of growing up his character. It is not surprising that Matthew probably has more fans than other Hogwarts students - the difference in appearance is simply amazing. Like other Harry Potter actors, then and now he continues to be the idol of girls around the world.
Draco Malfoy
Fans of the so-called Potterians are most often interested in the life of Tom Felton, who played Draco Malfoy - the opponent of Harry. Curious fact: Tom dreams of a remake of all parts of “Harry Potter” and wants to star in every movie again, but only when he is mature enough to play Lucius, not Draco. He, too, ceased to be like a twelve-year-old. However, many other actors of "Harry Potter" have changed a lot (then and now: the photos are presented above).
