Saoirse Ronan Reveals Why She Lost Out On Luna Lovegood Role In ‘Harry Potter’
Four-time Oscar nominee Saoirse Ronan revealed she once auditioned for the part of Luna Lovegood in 'Harry Potter' — but didn't make the cut.
The four-time Academy Award-nominated actress recently appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live to promote her new indie film The Outrun, during which she — among other discussion topics — poked fun at the prevalence with which she has lost out on things, from the coveted Oscars to Kimmel’s own Ladybird swag-box he put together in honor of the film during the 2018 awards show. A deeply spiritual, quirky and prescient character, she is portrayed by Evanna Lynch beginning with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix until the franchise’s conclusion with Deathy Hallows: Part 2. The film, based on the memoir of the same name from Amy Liptrot, follows a woman’s journey toward sobriety from alcohol addiction, as she moves from London to the remote Scottish cloister of Orkney Islands.
