“Harry Potter” actor Bonnie Wright, who played Ginny Weasley in the eight-film Warner Bros. franchise ranging from ages 9 to 19, is ready to pass the Sorting Hat to a new cast for HBO’s upcoming film adaptation of the J.K. Rowling novels. But first, she has some thoughts on storylines from the books that she hopes will make it into the TV series that didn’t make it into the original films, including key moments between Ginny and love interest Harry, originally played by Daniel Radcliffe.

"So many things. More about the evolution of the relationship between Ginny and Harry," Wright told Variety during Sunday's Back to Hogwarts event at New York's Grand Central Terminal, where she led fans in a symbolic countdown to Sept. 1, the date Hogwarts students board the train to the wizarding school each year in the "Harry Potter" series. "There are nuanced moments where they start to fall in love. I think more about that arc of her character becoming a really loyal sidekick to Harry and how she really understands and knows his story and who he is and is the best partner for him. So I just hope that we see that evolution of that character — and so many characters. If only we could have had five-hour movies. There are so many characters that have moments that I love from the books, Neville and Luna, so I hope as a fan of the books that I get to see more of that."

While Wright doesn't have any specific advice for the new cast members HBO is currently hiring, as she wants them to feel free to explore the roles in their own way, she does foresee a "little more pressure" for the young actors taking on Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny and more iconic characters.

"When we were making it, we didn't know where 'Harry Potter' was going. And back then, there wasn't social media and there wasn't as much access to the public, so it was kind of a little bubble in itself," Wright said. "But I also think it's such a fun opportunity for these people, whether they're cast or how they play their roles, to just have fun with it and have their own interpretation of it. I don't think I have any advice, to be honest, because I think it's so important for them to be in their world and have their own interpretation of it. And I think that's so important, from an actor's perspective, from a director's perspective, to really make it their own. So I'm really looking forward to just being on the other side this time and being the one you see on television every week, and being the audience. And I really hope that the interpretations feel different and alive and new and fresh."
