She stole my look.Evanna Meghan Lynch (born 16 August 1991) is an Irish actress from Termonfeckin, County Louth, Ireland. She lives with her father Donal, mother Marguerite, elder sisters Máiréad and Emily, and younger brother Patrick.[1]
It was revealed on February 2, 2006 that Lynch, who was then fourteen, had been cast as Luna Lovegood in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix after her father flew her to London for the open audition for the role,[2] beating nearly 15,000 girls in the auditions.[citation needed] She began the actual filming of Order of the Phoenix at the end of February at Leavesden Studios in England.
Lynch had the chance to meet Harry Potter author J. K. Rowling at the Leavesden Studios lot during the early stages of the fifth film's production. After a long chat, Rowling had one thing to say about Lynch portraying Luna: "perfect".[3] However, as Lynch is naturally a brunette, her hair had to be bleached blonde for the role of Luna.
