Portrait Magazine has chosen their annual Top 30 Under 30 list, and as they should have, they picked our very own Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley) and Emma Watson (Hermione Granger) as numbers 5 and 4, respectively. Here’s what the blurbs say:
She started off with a “Good luck” to Harry in the first Harry Potter film, but since then Ginny Weasley’s portrayer, Bonnie Wright has become a star in her own right. This young actress’s talent exceeds acting, as she also plays the piano and recorder. She also does ballet, modern, and African dances, as well as demonstrating her sporty side through surfing, soccer, rounders, and tennis. Bonnie also loves to do accents and is known for her Cockney, Yorkshire, and Australian accents. Phew! Like we said, she’s just a whirlwind of talent!
What’s Next: You can catch more of Bonnie when Harry Potter and the Half-Blooded Prince is comes out on November 21. Then there’s the first part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in 2010.
More after the jump:
Hermione Granger is all grown up now, as is her portrayer Emma Watson. When Emma made our Top 30 last year, we dubbed her the “smart girl” and mentioned that Emma would love to go to university but wouldn’t know what to study since there are so many options out there! There are also many sides to Emma and she’s more than “the girl who plays Hermione Granger on Harry Potter. As well as her intelligence (she scored 8A*s and 2 As in her GSCEs back in 2006), Emma is also known for being environmentally conscious and supports the “Wild Trout Trust”. She was even nominated for the “Greenest Star Award” at the “Disney Playhouse – Playing for the Planet”.
What’s Next: Harry Potter and the Half-Blooded Prince is set for release on November 21. Then there’s the first part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in 2010. Emma fans also have the films Napoleon and Betsy, The Tale of Desperaux, and Ballet Shoes (which will be limitedly released in certain US cinemas on August 26, before being available on DVD on September 2 in the States) to look forward to as well.
It’s about time Emma is recognized as something more than “that Granger girl”. She is going to be big on the silver screen for years to come. I don’t understand how Hollywood big-name directors keep failing to recognize her amazing talent! She will be big one day, mark my words. Congrats Emma and Bonnie!
