Harry Potter Alum Reveals What She Wants to See From HBO Adaptation
alum Bonnie Wright, who had played the role of Ginny Weasley in the blockbuster film franchise, has revealed what she wants to see the most from HBO‘s upcoming TV adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s beloved novel series.
During a recent interview, Wright has opened up about HBO’s Harry Potter series, revealing that she hopes that the new live-action adaptation would be able to feature more of Ginny and Harry’s relationship, including the “nuanced moments” from the books which better showcase how the characters fall in love with each other.
“More of the development of the relationship between Ginny and Harry,” Wright said (via Variety). “There’s nuanced moments of where they begin to fall in love. I think more of that arc of her character becoming this real loyal sidekick to Harry and how she really understands and knows his story and who he is and is the best partner for him.

There are so many characters that have moments I love from the books — Neville and Luna — so I’m hoping as a fan of the books that I get to see more.”

Rowling, Neil Blair, Ruth Kenley-Letts, and long-time Harry Potter franchise producer David Heyman.
