Harry Potter star Evanna Lynch has revealed she went home to do her homework moments after she got the call telling her she landed the role of Luna Lovegood in the hit franchise.
The Co Louth native successfully auditioned for the role in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix at the age of 14. Evanna recalled how she had gotten a call telling her the good news while standing outside her local Spar with her mother.
She said: “Oh you don’t forget that. I was outside our local Spar shop. It was on the way home from school on the Monday. They told us they were going to call and say, you know, after school.
