Hmm. That's good.

Hey, Muggles.

Well, if Hogwarts behind me didn't give it away, I am at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Hollywood.

We're catching up with the cast, taking a ride with a hippogriff, and indulging in a little bit of butterbeer.

Okay, a lot of butterbeer.

I think I need a refill.

Well, you might not recognize these guys without the red hair, but I am with the Weasley twins, AKA Oliver and James Phelps.

Hello.

So, we are in, uh, Harry Potter world.

We're in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

Universal Hollywood.

Universal Hollywood.

How authentic is it?

Very.

I wonder what we're gonna see inside.

I'm with Luna Lovegood herself, Evanna Lynch.

Thank you for joining us.

It's a pleasure.

So, what's your favorite memory from filming the movies?

I I found the makeup room so much fun cuz there was a lot of energy.

People were excited for the day ahead.

Mhm.

Men were getting wigged up, you know, getting stuff with us long long wigs.

Mhm.

Yeah.

And the fourth movie with the Yule Ball,

Mhm.

Um, that was such a lot of fun to do because it was right before Christmas, so I had like a Christmas feel.

And the band that were playing was like Jarvis Cocker from Pulp and Radiohead.

So it's like a supergroup playing playing music.

And the director said to us, right, start a mosh pit.

All right, so you know, we had such a great time that one.

The one memory I get when I walk through the gates here and you see everything for the first time is like when we first saw the Great Hall on the very first movie, because it's just that, okay, we're really in Hogwarts.

Yeah.

Like just like in the movie.

Are you ever surprised at how passionate Harry Potter fans are?

Yeah, even after years, they still care as much.

Um, personally, I'll still get recognized for Luna.

Really?

So, do fans come up to you and

Yeah.

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

All the time.

Yeah.

One one I had, I was on vacation in in um Mexico.

Okay.

And so I was swimming in the sea and I was kind of like bobbing around.

And this lady came over, she was probably in like her 40s or something like that, and swam over and she's like, "Are you in Harry Potter?"

I was like, yeah.

And she's like, okay.

And just swam off.

I think the weirdest time actually, or most mind-blowing to me was at Universal Studios in Orlando.

Okay.

And we just done a a piece in front of the house and we came around the back.

And there was a a we'll just say a very famous basketball player.

Okay.

From this city.

Okay.

And um, and he was a huge he's a huge Harry Potter fan.

And he's saying about how he can't have too much butterbeer before a game and stuff like that.

So he's just absolutely fantastic.

Oh my gosh.

I've never had anything too weird.

And I wish I did, cuz everyone else has had funky things happen to them.

Yeah.

I just meet really cool people.

It was Do no tattoos?

Like nobody has like a Weasley twin tattoo?

Oh, we should have a few of those.

I I had one where a girl was, "James, James, come here, come here."

On the red carpet once.

And then I got there and she turned around and she had my face tattooed on her back.

I mean it's a great tattoo.

It did look like me, but it was uh a bit surreal.

I gotta get your un-censored thoughts on butterbeer before we go.

Oh.

I did love it.

I'm actually vegan now, so I can't have it.

Ah.

Creamy stuff.

Yeah.

And it's not worth it without the cream, is it?

No.

But I loved it.

And actually that was my one struggle as transitioning to vegan, giving up the butterbeer ice cream.

Giving up butterbeer?

Butterbeer ice cream.

This is this is Actually they still have it here yet.

But butterbeer everything.

It's delicious.

Yeah.

I'm a little drunk on the butterbeer, I'm not gonna lie.

That stuff is good.

Yeah, you just got the only thing I'd say is be careful how much you drink before you go on the Forbidden Journey ride.

Yeah.

You only make that mistake once.

Yeah.

Hopefully.

Yeah, hopefully you do.

Yeah, hopefully you do.

Oh.

That was quite a ride.

No trip to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter would be complete without a stop at Honeydukes in Hogsmeade Village.

If you didn't have a sweet tooth before, you definitely have one now, as well as like maybe like one or two cavities.

Look at all this stuff.

We've got Glacial Snowflakes, got Exploding Bonbons, which sound, uh, violent.

Fizzy Whizbees.

Some of these you might recognize from the movie.

Some, uh, just look really, really tasty.

Not gonna lie.

Which house would you fit into?

I'm actually a Gryffindor.

Pottermore certified.

Ravenclaw.

You are.

Yes.

The hair and everything.

I got it.

Oh, you got that for this.

Yes.

Cool.

Awesome.

Be careful because it might fit to green.

And then you're a Slytherin.

Yeah.

I think I belong to Gryffindor, you know.

I mean, I've already got the uniform.

Yeah.

So, I'm probably and I have been sorted into Gryffindor, actually, on Pottermore.

Oh, okay.

But James wasn't.

No.

I was, uh, I was actually sorted into Hufflepuff.

Really?

I was like, ah.

No, that's not That's not the same thing.

I'd come to myself as a bit of a badger.

Just chilling out.

Yeah, okay.

Thank you.

Normally, I would wait for a special occasion, but being at Hogwarts, being at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter is special enough, don't you think?

Hmm.

Even better than I imagined.

Oh, look, there's Hogwarts to your right.

Thank you so much.

It was such a pleasure talking to you.

Yes, talking to you too.

I hope you have some really good fan experiences here in Hollywood.

Yes.

Cuz, actually, you know what?

I don't know.

Is Hollywood we're a little bit too cool sometimes, like

No.

No.

No.

I hope you guys had as much fun as I did.

And I think I need some more butterbeer.

Accio, butterbeer.

Works.
