The popularity of Harry Potter films provides an excellent opportunity for child actresses and emerging adult actresses to build successful careers. We've put together a list of the accomplishments of young actresses in Harry Potter films and young actresses who haven't been so far. Some of them just stayed in the spotlight for a few minutes, but they still impressed us and were certainly recognizable. Let's take a look at their fascinating transformations.
Clemens Posey (Fleur de Lacour)

In the fantasy world of Harry Potter, girls' schools are full of fairytale beauties. Our first impression of Fleur de Lacure is that of a beautiful and delicate French fairy, which is emphasized several times in the film. Clemence Poesy proved to be the perfect person for the role. The French actress, now 37 years old, looks surprisingly young. Fleur has played a decisive role in her career, but since then she has had a lot of successes, such as 127 Hours or TENER, which will be released in 2020.
Julianne Hough (Hufflepuff student)
Julianne Hough, who plays a small role, has long been familiar with the world of cinema. In her small role, she had to portray a huffle-cheering Hufflepuff student. Her career began in the following years of the beautiful actress, who is now 31 years old. We've seen her in several movies and TV shows like Haven and Dances with the Stars. We're pretty sure that in the next few years we'll see her on the screen.
Avshan Azad (Padma Patil)
Padma Patil, from the Ravenclaw family, was invited by Ron to be the partner for the Goblet of Fire ball. She was tired of the boy's company, so she left him. She hasn't played any important role since then, but her beauty was recognized early on. Now, she works as a model on social media.
Jesse's Cave (lavender brown)
Lavender Brown is Harry's classmate at Gryffindor, and Harry takes on a larger role in episode SIX ("The Half-Blood Prince"). Ron began a smaller romantic relationship with her, but then he grew tired of her clingy style early on. For the rest of the series, she appears only as a background character. Jessie Cave not only had smaller roles in the film, but also began writing books like Sunrise and Love Sick.
Ellie Darcy-Olden (Lily Evans)
Young Lily only appeared on the screen for a few minutes, in Snape's memory. Still, she left a lasting memory for the actors as an innocent child actor who was faithful to her role in the book. Ellie Darcy-Olden has only appeared in smaller plays, and so far she hasn't gotten any bigger roles.
Scarlett Byrne (Pansy Parkinson)
The cute babyface actress didn't get any easy in portraying Pansy Parkinson because as an eternally cheerful and kind girl, she had to turn herself into a real tyrannical little bastard. Pansy Parkinson is a Slytherin girl who has an affair with Draco Malfoy. Today, Scarlett is more active on social media and has fewer roles.
Eleanor Columbus (Susan Burns)
Eleanor Columbus is none other than Chris Columbus's daughter, so it's clear that she can play a small role in this box office success. This young girl underwent an amazing transformation. She is said to have played some roles in the Netflix series. Let's cheer her on.
Angelica Mandy (Gabriel Delacour)
Harry was taken to the Triwizard tournament and made a serious decision that in addition to his own friend, the life of another person must be saved. He also rescued Fleur's sister, earning her double points, both for the race and for humans. Over the years, Angelica Mandy has gone from being a little girl to a beautiful young woman. Today, she only appears on social media and sometimes in smaller behaviors.
Georgina Leonidas (Katie Bell)
Katie Bell was a member of the Harry Quidditch team and played as a batsman at Gryffindor. In Half-Blood Prince (Part VI), Katie experiences a traumatic event. Georgina Leonidas is so brilliant that she almost lost her life by touching the damn necklace that was originally given to Hogwarts director Albus Dumbledore. We later learned that the necklace had been sent by Draco Malfoy under Voldemort's supervision. Nowadays, we can notice her in theatrical performances and voiceovers.
Shirley Henderson (Moaning Myrtle)
Who wouldn't remember the groaning Myrtle, who became a truly decisive character at the end of the film? She helped Harry fight Voldemort. We've seen Shirley play smaller roles in the Trainspotting and Bridget Jones films.
Herbie Beardsall (Ariane Dumbledore)
Hebe Beardsall plays a character who is only known in the seventh volume of The Deathly Hallows. She played Ariane Dumbledore, her sister Albus and Albus Dumbledore, the latter of whom died young. We can only see her in one scene, when she leads Harry through a secret, uncontrolled tunnel into the castle. Today, the young actress is playing smaller roles, but she is waiting for a huge breakthrough.
Liang Yongqi (Zhang Zhiqiang)
Katie Liu Leung is a Scottish actress. In Harry Potter, we see her as the protagonist's first lover. She also appeared in 2016's The Stranger, but she hasn't appeared in any blockbusters since.
Tiana Benjamin (Angelina Johnson)
One of the most important events in Hogwarts' life was Quidditch. The young witch was a great talent in the sport, so she quickly became a prominent figure on the Gryffindor team. Fred Weasley invited her to the ball, and let's say we know why.
Hefari Chowdhury
When Harry Potter was in fourth grade at Hogwarts, he invited the little girl to the opening ball of the Triwizard Tournament. Unfortunately, Harry messed things up and made Parvati very bored. Shefali Chowdhury turned into a very beautiful woman in real life, so we can see her in several Bollywood movie roles.
Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley)
When we first met Ron's sister Ginny, we saw a shy little freckled girl. Over the years, she's played a movie-like role, and in real life, the actress has grown into a beautiful charismatic woman. Ginny later became Harry's wife and mother of the child. Since then, Bonnie Wright has played minor roles in several small-budget films. We may see her in more dramas in the future.
Emma Watson (Hermione Granger)
Only a few people can match the wisdom of Hermione Jean Granger. Many say she was probably the smartest witch of her time at Hogwarts. In real life, the only difference is that she is much stricter than in the movies. During her studies, she was the first in her class, and then she came up with several noble things to support their names and faces. We can say that Emma made the most of the film. Everyone can recall a movie with her face. Over the years, she became a true A-class actress.
Daphne de Bestgi (Lily Luna Potter)
To avoid confusion, "Lily Luna Potter" is not Harry's mom, we're talking about her daughter. Daphne de Beistegui played Harry's daughter Lily in the "19 Years Later" scene at the end of Deathly Hallows and did it well. If you compare the two photos you see here, it's clear that Daphne has grown significantly since then.
Michelle Fairley (Mrs. Granger)
In the first part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, she appears as Hermione's mother. Hermione returns home and magically implants false memories into her parents, forgetting her existence. This isn't the only time Michelle Fairley has played the role of a tragic mother. Years later, she played Caitlin Stark in Game of Thrones.
Helena Bonham Carter (Bellatrix Lestrange)
pinterest.com Of all the ladies on the list, Helena Bonham Carter is probably the most famous. The actress's character face and marriage to Tim Burton helped her showcase her talent in many blockbusters. She played bellatrix well, as Voldemort's most loyal ally and, of course, a crazy evil witch.
Ivana Lynch (Luna Lovegood)
Perhaps in the Harry Potter universe, Luna Lovegood is the most polarized personality. Truth be told, she's not a typical girl, which is why so many people like her. Evanna Lynch uses her strange abilities to portray Luna beautifully. Since then, Evanna has played minor roles, done voice acting, and become an activist.
Anna Schaeffer (Romilda Wien)
When Harry entered his sixth year at Hogwarts, everyone wanted to be with him. As his popularity grew, he became a role model for many other students, including Romilda Wien of Gryffindor. She wanted to be with Harry so much that she tried to give him a love potion that eventually led to disastrous results. Anna Shaffer played the role well, and she went on to work as an actress in other films. Now, she's known as the Wizard of Tris on the popular Netflix show The Witcher.
Miranda Richardson (Rita Skeeter)
Rita Skeeter's role clearly reflects the role of the media industry, which has always been greedy. Because of her exaggerated writing and her garbage personality, Rita's character was hated by many viewers. Actress Miranda Richardson's face and voice play proved to be the perfect match for the role during her role as Rita.
