~ 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 Francesca Wright ~

Bonnie Kathleen Wright was born to Gary Wright and Sheila Teague Wright, on February 17, 1991, in London, England. She has one older brother, named Lewis. Bonnie enjoys a multitude of different sports, including football, swimming, tennis, riding, ice skating, surfing and cycling. She is also very artistic and loves dancing (modern, ballet and African), working with clay, singing, and various musical instruments such as the guitar, saxophone, harmonica and recorder. Bonnie likes to travel, which she does a lot of, seeing as she has visited Finland, America, Australia, Africa, India, Spain, Italy, Denmark, Poland, Germany and France. Her favorite school subjects are art and science and her role model is actress Nicole Kidman. 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
- She can do RP, Cockney, Yorkshire and Australian accents.
- Her agent says she is a very good singer.
- When she was told that she'd landed the role of Ginny she screamed out of the car window all the way up the motorway. LOL.
- If she could steal anything from the set it would either be her wand or a Weasley jumper.
- She is a big fan of fashion and considers Miuccia Prada to be her style icon.
- If she could play any other Harry Potter character it would be Professor McGonagall because she adores Maggie Smith.
- She loves the behind the scenes aspects of film making and plans to study directing at the University of the Arts.
- Other then Julie Walters and Mark Williams she gets along exceptionally well with Micheal Gambon who she says is "always good fun" on set.

"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 ~

Banner by alxndrjosephine

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

“When we were casting the first film, I was so overwhelmed by the process of finding our Harry Potter and Ginny was such a small part that I really hadn’t considered how much acting Bonnie was going to have to do in the second film, but she is absolutely amazing. Ginny is a challenging and demanding role and she does it beautifully.”
- Chris Columbus

"She comes across as a pleasant, unstarry, level-headed girl."
- Evening Standard Magazine

Bonnie Wright who plays Ginny is just amazing. When you came onto the last movie, knowing that you couldn't recast anyone, did you have a plan of how you were going to get them to the point where they could do the things needed for this movie?
"I think it was a process of nurturing and encouraging and supporting, and I did workshops with Bonnie before we started shooting. I got really excited. She has a quality and it goes back... all credit to David Heyman and Chris Columbus who found them in the first place."
- David Yates

Thanks for the new thread, Sonal.

Man, we have a gorgeous OP! This quote from the Insider is the same one that insulted and complemented her in the same breath, isn't it?

As I said before, it looked like something Romilda Vane would write.

I read few fanfics where Romilda Vane works for Witch Weekly and yeah, you can imagine the kind of stuff she writes when it comes to Harry & Ginny, especially Ginny.

That's why I said it would be nice if there is a showdown between these two.

insertusernamehere · 07-26-2009, 12:11 AM

Thanks for the new thread!

"...fiery red haired vixen." So true, so true.

stumps101 · 07-26-2009, 12:18 AM

Woot, everything looks fine. First thread start so yeah, glad that there were no mishaps LOL.

Yes, this is from the article that sounded so weird LOL.

No problem guys

wyndrider · 07-26-2009, 12:24 AM

There's no doubt she's a beautiful girl. The world has just discovered what we've been saying for ages.

Doesn't Bonnie have that charity fashion event this weekend?

KJJ1588 · 07-26-2009, 12:25 AM

I miss the easy weasley beautiful cover girl.

wyndrider · 07-26-2009, 12:31 AM

Me too, Kevin. That's got to be the best title ever!

We can't have the same title twice, can we?

CHH · 07-26-2009, 12:36 AM

The charity thing is next weekend.

stumps101 · 07-26-2009, 02:23 AM

Just bringing somethings over from the previous thread :

Same here

I want them all and more

Oh yeah, I totally forgot that he said that. Damn

Quote:

I agree Bonnie's performance was much more subtle and understated than what most people would consider canon!Ginny to be, which is where I do think some of the disappointment comes from. But it is funny, because a lot of the reviewers like that about her, LOL.

ITA. I think quite a few people that didn't like Bonnie in HBP were actually book!Ginny fans and so yeah are a bit disappointed because she's a lot more subtle and calmer than book Ginny. I have seen some that loathe Ginny say they really liked Bonnie's Ginny, so yeah it varies.

Quote:

It seems plenty of people liked Bonnie's performance. IMDB is pretty much a mob mentality.

It's not just IMDB I think. Sadly, I have seen quite a few people on CoS forums saying that they didn't like Bonnie/Ginny in it and found her wooden/unemotional and some even say for them the H/G in the movie didn't work for them/was too awkward for them/d/Dan and Bonnie didn't have the chemistry because of Bonnie. Alot of these people seem to be book fans tbh. None of them are as awful about it as they are on IMDB though, where some people were just downright nasty about it. Though I'm sure ONTD would give them a run for their money LOL. Funnily the critics loved her LOL.

Can't wait for Bonnie's hosting event

emeraldflames · 07-26-2009, 03:48 AM

Just a reminder, I remember Amy asked us not to bring negativity over from other boards. It does nothing for us. Let's focus on the positive, folks.

This thread title is golden, but I too loved the Easy, Weasley, Beautiful Cover Girl title, LOL. Definitely one of my favorites. Thanks for the new thread!!

wyndrider · 07-26-2009, 03:59 AM

Right with you, Rose.

I wish we could use the Easy, Weasley title again. Can't we? Make it into Part II or Sequel or something.

stumps101 · 07-26-2009, 04:01 AM

Ah yes, Rose, you are right. Ooops

Focus on the positive indeed - many people did like Bonnie

That thread title was indeed golden

I'm sure in a few weeks we can reuse it somehow ? LOL IDK, some people may not like re-using titles ?

emeraldflames · 07-26-2009, 04:03 AM

I think we have so many thread titles to use it's best not to reuse anything.

I mean I loved it, but really, we have SO MANY now.

I saved/typed up a lot of Bonnie's recent quotes and I think we're good for months. She said some pretty fantastic stuff for Ginny during HBP promo.

stumps101 · 07-26-2009, 04:09 AM

Yeah, Bonnie doing interviews resulted in us getting many, many awesome quotes

wyndrider · 07-26-2009, 04:24 AM

Then we have no worries about titles.

Bonnie's really awesome and generous with quotes recently.
