Bonnie Wright

Bonnie Wright was born on February 17, 1991 in London, England to Gary Wright and Sheila Teague, who are both jewellers, who owns their own company called Wright & Teague, and has an older brother named Lewis. She is a trained dancer studying ballet, African and Modern. She also sings and plays the piano and enjoys art. In her spare time she enjoys playing football and surfing. Wright has visited many places including; India, Spain, Italy, Finland, America, Australia, France, Denmark and Poland.

Bonnie was originally cast as Ginny Weasley for a small scene in the first film, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone in 2001, set at King's Cross Station. Her role became more prominent with the second movie, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets in 2002, in which her character begins studies at Hogwarts while dealing with a very powerful secret diary that begins to seize her soul and consciousness. Wright's role in the third film, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban in 2004, was significantly smaller, leaving her with only one line of dialogue. However, the character became a bonafide supporting character in the fourth film, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire in 2005, with dialogue sprinkled across several scenes and perhaps her most screen-time yet.

Her role in the fifth Potter saga, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, which was released on 11 July 2007, sets her again firmly in the limelight, with hints of Ginny's greater importance to the overall plot. Her role is increased even more in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in which she portrays Ginny as Harry Potter's  main love interest and even shares a kiss with him. She also received very good reviews for her performance, including from Comingsoon.com who wrote that If someone told me eight years ago that Bonnie Wright, introduced as Ginny Weasley  in the first movie, would turn into such a strong dramatic actress who could carry scenes as well as the three leads, I wouldn't have believed it, and Films School Rejects who also wrote Ginny  (Bonnie Wright) in particular shines through, building on the power she gained in the last film to become an independent young woman that proves more complex with every scene. She has confirmed to date, Bonnie will reprise her role as Ginny Weasley one last time in the final Potter film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Wright has also provided the voice for Ginny Weasley in the video game adaptations of Order of the Phoenix and Half-Blood Prince.
