Bonnie Wright Says the Magnitude of Harry Potter 'Never Got Normal': 'Still a Pinch-Me Moment'


Bonnie Wright, who played Ginny Weasley in the 'Harry Potter' movies, tells PEOPLE there is an 'absolutely incredible level of fandom' in the franchise.

Wright, who appeared at Back to Hogwarts at Grand Central Terminal on Sept. 1 in New York City to surprise fans, also tells PEOPLE that while she always knew Harry Potter was a big deal when she was a kid filming the movies, she was living in a different world while on set, which made it a bit easier for her to deal with. The mom of one says it truly wasn't until she and her costars — including Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint — would step out for the movie's premieres that they would truly feel the weight of the franchise. Wright says she had plenty of people in her protective bubble, especially her onscreen mom Julie Walters, who played Molly Weasley.
