~*~Ginevra Molly Weasley~*~

The name "Ginevra" is Italian form of Guinevere. The name "Guinevere" is the old French form of the Welsh name Gwenhwyfar, which is composed of the elements gwen meaning "fair, white" and hwyfar meaning "smooth". In Arthurian legend she is the beautiful wife of King Arthur.

The youngest of seven and the only daughter of the Weasley family. Ginny Weasley was born on August 11th, 1981. She was the first Weasley girl to be born for several generations, growing up with six older brothers: Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred, George, and Ron.

Ginny joined Hogwarts in 1992 and was placed in Gryffindor, the traditional home for students who value and possess courage and bravery. Although her first year was far from a success and had made her an easy target of Lord Voldemort himself, she returned for her second year willing and determined to start off with a fresh slate. As she grew older, her self-confidence increased, and she refused to let others get the best of her. It became evident that she had a fierce temper and could be unkind when angered. those who attended Hogwarts knew better then to cross the fiery redhead, and even her older brothers became weary of her infamous bat bogey hex. Ginny also happened to be very thoughtful and sympathetic. Making good friends with Luna Lovegood and Neville Longbottom in her fourth year, she proved herself to be a very loyal friend. Also clever, understanding and willing to help, in her fourth year she proves herself rather insightful and very capable of talking sense into Harry when he is too angry for others to deal with.

In the later books, Ginny began turning the heads of many boys. No longer the shy, timid creature she was in her first year, Ron voiced that she had become "too popular for her own good". She eventually joined the Gryffindor Quidditch team, becoming one of the best chasers there. and securing the House cup for Gryffindor in her fifth year.

When she was younger, Ginny had nursed a crush on Harry for four years before winning his heart and becoming his girlfriend in her fifth year and then later on his wife. She was a celebrated player on the all-girls Holyhead Harpies Quidditch team before she retired to raise her family and become the Senior Quidditch Correspondent for the Daily Prophet.

"She's tough, not in an unpleasant way, but she's gutsy. I think she's funny, and I think that she's very warm and compassionate. I really like Ginny as a character."

Bonnie began her acting career when she was cast as Ginny Weasley in the film Harry Potter and the Philosophers' Stone, playing the fiery-headed younger sister to the title character Harry's best friend.

- Her parents run a very successful jewelery store ~ Wright & Teague

"Ginny was quite shy in the beginning, but as the films go on, she’s gotten more outgoing and feisty. That’s more like me – I’m not a very shy type of a person, and so she’s gotten closer to who I am, really."

~ What others have said about Bonnie ~

On meeting the HP cast for the very first time:
"It was very unreal, you know - because I couldn't believe that they were all real. You know when I met them - I remember meeting Bonnie and Katie and I kept like - wanting to poke them to see if they were real. And it was like wow, you are real."
- Evanna Lynch

"...In regards to the main six, I've been really close with umm.. Dan, Rupert, & Emma and umm.. me & Bonnie. Bonnie just started training with the stunt guys at lunchtimes, which me and Alfie, (Dean Thomas), have been doing as well. So we're doing that together."
- Matthew Lewis

Who did you find yourself becoming close friends with while filming GoF? What about OotP?
"Everybody really! In GoF I became best buds with Dan, Bonnie, Katie. All of us are a family really."
- Afshan Azad

"It's a very complex relationship [H/C]. I mean, I think Cho does like Harry, but at the same time she's still mourning over Cedric. And they both know that, so it's difficult for them to strike up any sort of relationship or take it any further. Umm, but, no, it's very sweet while it lasts. Definitely. But it was ill-fated and everyone knew he was going to end up with Ginny! Which I'm really pleased about because I love Bonnie!"
- Katie Leung

"Bonnie is loads and loads of fun and amazing and fantastic!!!"
- Daniel Radcliffe

Was there a joker on the set?
"Dan and Rupert can be, it's usually them. If there's anything going on you can usually look at them or Bonnie [Wright; Ginny Weasley] as well."
- Chris Rankin

"Seeing Bonnie Wright - who plays Ginny Weasley - blossom is lovely, as well as it is to see her burgeoning romance with Harry..."
- David Heyman

"Bonnie was absolutely lovely. While Rupert was doing press, I noticed that Bonnie was in the middle of the red carpet, surrounded by Rupert’s siblings, completely unnoticed by everyone. I called her and she came to us and signed a lot of autographs for our little group, before leaving to pose for photographs. She was really nice, and seemed very humble. She didn’t look for any attention, but when we called her, she came straight away."
- Neve from EW.net on the NMAs

"However, for this fifth installment, Ron’s sister Ginny (Bonnie Wright) makes the most impact among the rest of Harry’s friends as she exudes a certain teenage glow."
- Film Works

Thank you for starting the thread, Kristi.

In case anyone's wondering where the title comes from, it's taken from the quote below. Obviously, I tried to snip out the shippy parts to make it just about Ginny.

Quote:

He has a thing for Bonnie, Ginny Weasley actually, who's a lovely character and he does, he gets to kiss someone else in Half-Blood Prince, which is quite the romantic scene.

emeraldflames · 06-07-2009, 01:37 PM

This title is sweet, awww. Thanks for starting the new thread.

ishkamina1980 · 06-07-2009, 01:43 PM

thanks for the new thread.

I am so ecxiting for tomorrow for the HP signing.

Kgose · 06-07-2009, 01:54 PM

The new Ginny pictures we got the last few days:

THE offical still of above:

And we got more to come with Bonnie in Paris tomorrow!!!!!!!!

pennylane_4 · 06-07-2009, 01:59 PM

Thanks for the recap, Kristi.

I love that these two things -- the kickass, rough-and-tumble Quidditch player, and the soft, feminine girly girl -- both exist side by side in Ginny. She's so cool.

Gean · 06-07-2009, 01:59 PM

Wohoo, can't wait for her signing in Paris!

Thanks for the new thread.

Aye, she is

KJJ1588 · 06-07-2009, 02:08 PM

Bonnie is bringing all sorts of clash to one of Rowling's most controversial characters. She's perfect.

Kgose · 06-07-2009, 02:10 PM

She's definitely perfect for the part. Chris got lucky with picking her for the first film.

KJJ1588 · 06-07-2009, 02:14 PM

We should thank Heyman for it, he kept her for so long.

Where's that new pic of Ginny and Harry? She had something in her hand.

pennylane_4 · 06-07-2009, 02:18 PM

You mean the one where she's wiping his face? Well, it's all over the Leos thread, that's for sure.

KJJ1588 · 06-07-2009, 02:21 PM

Oh damn, you guys post way too fast for my old eyes.

I am glad to see Bonnie has been getting different sets of wardrobe for this film and a dress a 15 year old girl would wear. I hope she gets scenes in DH, because I haven't heard anything about Bonnie filmming.

CHH · 06-07-2009, 02:24 PM

She's never been one to talk about her filming schedule so she may have done prep work or is in the process of doing prep work and we just don't know.

kjb13248 · 06-07-2009, 02:24 PM

I wouldn't worry about "Deathly Hallows". We haven't heard of anybody filming besides the trio, obviously, and actors who were spotted at on location filming spots. We know Matthew and Tom have filmed, but that's only because they Twittered about it.

Honestly we probably won't know anything about Bonnie's filming schedule unless she comes out and says it or we hear from an inside source.

I'm hoping we'll hear something about it. I mainly just want to know her scheldue and what her role in DH is going to be like. Nothing too detailed or anything.
