As a child, Lynch read the Harry Potter series and became a prominent fan,sending letters to the author, J. K. Rowling. She stated in a 2009 interview with Ryan Tubridy, "I'm still definitely more of a Harry Potter fan than an actor".She had never acted professionally before the Harry Potter series, her experience limited to school plays. For two years from the age of 11, Lynch suffered from anorexia. During this time, Rowling sent her letters of encouragement; Lynch has described her as being "like a counsellor"


Career& Personal life
In 2006, agents discovered Lynch at a casting call in London for the role of Luna Lovegood in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the fifth film in the series adapted from the books.After auditioning against 15,000 other girls,and a subsequent screen test with lead actor Daniel Radcliffe, she was cast at the age of 14. Producers were impressed with her affinity for the character; David Heyman said "The others could play Luna; Evanna Lynch is Luna."Although uninvolved in the casting process, Rowling believed that Lynch was perfect for the role.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix in 2007 was Lynch's debut screen performance. The film was a box office hit, taking US$938 million worldwide, and garnered generally favorable reviews. Critics praised the performances of the supporting cast, often singling out Lynch for particular acclaim; A. O. Scott of The New York Times called her performance "spellbinding",and Jane Watkins of Country Life said she "[brought] an appealing sweetness to her character that's not so developed in the book".She reprised her role as Luna in the film's tie-in video game.
Two years later, Lynch again starred as Luna in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the sixth instalment in the series. The film was critically and financially successful.Wesley Morris of The Boston Globe wrote that Lynch as Luna "combats the movie’s occasional sluggishness with a hilarious sluggishness of her own",and Michael Dwyer of The Irish Times called her the best Irish actress of 2009 for her work on the film.Her performance earned her Scream Award and Young Artist Award nominations, and she again reprised her role in the film's tie-in video game.
The seventh and final instalment in the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, was divided into two parts for financial and scripting reasons.The first part was released in 2010 and the second part is scheduled for release in 2011.Part one was critically and financially successful. In their respective reviews for part one, James Verniere of The Boston Herald commented that Luna "is still delightfully lunar,"while Moira Macdonald of The Seattle Times said Luna "as usual, steals the movie with a line". She again reprised her role in the film's tie-in video game.
