The search for Luna Lovegood.

[winky22]

I have posted this in another thread but i think it is worthy of its own, well i hope it is mods Ringo will this be the first thread you close? Please no Ha!

Well i know of a young girl who i work with she is 15 and a weekend girl in my shop. It started as a joke i used to call her Luna and she used to do an particular face that we'd called her Luna face. The one day i was on Mugglenet and it reported that when they knew about the acting places they would post them, i told her and from then on it became more serious and she said she'd like to go for it.
So i kept my eye on Mugglenet and we kept on practicing her Luna.

About a month ago ish, Mugglenet posted the search for Luna Lovegood, they said they where going round certain school to try and find there Luna and if you school wasn't listed you could write an letter with an picture so we decided to do it!

Betsy (thats her) had recently finished her GSCE in drama early as she wasn't taking the rest because she was not in the right year, she is now but instead of doing her GCSE as she would be she is doing her A level in drama. She she has some qualifications in what she wants to do.

She ended p getting an A in her Drama GCSE and thats was brill it is not like she did it early and got a rubbish grade her teacher thought they where all really good.

So she wrote the letter i took the pics ( We sent one of her as herself and two of her with her Luna face) and it was put in the post on Monday, the 18th that is.

So now for the waiting game we put an SAE in it so we are hoping for a quickish reply. She now jokes and calls me her manager.

Does anyone else know of any one thats going for the part and how do you all see Luna? She does a particular face to me that Betsy does.

I will keep you all posted on our progress and this thread is about our development but also for our own Luna stories and theories. I do believe Luna is one of JK's best Characters. I loved it in HBP when she commented and the Quidditch match.
Loser Lurgy, HA!

Happy posting

I see Luna sort of like me when I was at school as I had mousy, blonde hair, the loner whom no one wanted to talk to because I was considered the freak. I also have blue eyes but they do have a little green in them.

My older sister if she had mousy brown hair could have played Luna I think as her eyes are a little more pronounced than mine.

Well i am sad No one can get Betsy there and her mother wont let her go on the train on her own so thats the end of that!

I have begged lots of people but no one can.

I thought they would have someoen famous playing Luna, like the woman from "my family" she is quite old but could play the part well.

But good luck to whoever has auditioned ;D
