7 Questions with Bonnie Wright

Posted: August 28th, 2009 | Author: Stephen | Filed under: | 3 Comments »

1. What is the first thing you do every morning?
Well, it sometimes depends. If I’m filming that day, I pretty much roll out of bed, wash my face, and get into the car. Everything is done in the studio when I’m filming. If I’m at home I might go out for a walk to help me wake up or go out on my roof garden, have a cup of tea, and get adjusted to the day.

2. What room of your home do you spend the most time in?
I live in sort of a warehouse building back in London. The top floor of our house is quite a family communal area– from the kitchen or living room to the dining table… just spending time with my family.

3. What is the one book that changed your life?
I was at that age when you see books as as a real sort of problem and you cant be bothered to read them because you’ve only been told by your teachers… but then I read The Great Gatsby by Scott Fitzgerald. That is sort of when I started to enjoy reading.

4. When did you feel most broke (penniless)?
Probably when I was really young, saving up for petty things like a magazine or sweets, counting the pennies rather than pounds.

5. What was the most important thing you lost?
God, I used to always be losing things when I was younger like my my mobile phone, then I began borrowing my moms hand bags and loosing those. I think I learned a lesson after my parents started hating me [for that], so I’ve really decided to cling hold of everything I have. I haven’t lost anything for quite a while!

6. What was the last dream you had?
Last night I didn’t get much sleep after the [Harry Potter] premiere, but I dreamt that I’d missed my flight completely. It was more of a nightmare than a dream.

7. What is the one biggest goal that you haven’t accomplished yet?
The biggest goal for me… I’m still quite young, and although I’ve done such a big movie at the moment, I want to pursue a project that’s much more challenging and that has more elements, not just acting. Something with more of a directional point of view that I’m more involved in.

What is your best karaoke song?
Oh, I used to love Moulin Rouge when I was younger, so for karaoke I’d probably choose one of those songs. I used to know the lyrics inside and out.

If someone Googled you what would they learn?
I guess the main thing would be the character Ginny Weasley. I don’t know, not much has happened yet so they’d just get the general Wikipedia things or photographs.
