Q: Tell us about trying out for the Harry Potter movies. I imagine you were scared and nervous, were you? What did the director ask you to do? Were you surprised when you were told you had the part?

A: Really nervous. I wanted the role so so badly. It wasn't always the director, most of my auditions were taped, some auditions were lines from Harry Potter, others were just talking about myself. I was so excided I had the part, I didn't know what to do!!

Q: How was having a successful acting career changed your everyday life?

A: Not that much really, I still have the same friends and I still do the same things.
