Early life and education

Wright was born in London, England, the daughter of Sheila Teague and Gary Wright, owners of jewellery company Wright & Teague. She attended Prior Western Primary School and later the King Alfred School in North London for her secondary education.[citation needed] During the filming of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 and Part 2, Wright began attending London's University of the Arts: London College of Communication, to study Film and Television Production Manager. She plans to continue acting and to work behind-the-scenes after filming Harry Potter.[5][6]

Career

Acting

Harry Potter

Wright auditioned for the role of Ginny Weasley because her brother said she reminded him of the character.[5] Wright appears in the first film, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, only in a small scene set at London King's Cross railway station, where her character meets Harry Potter while watching four of her older brothers board the Hogwarts express. Her role became more prominent with the second movie, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, in which her character begins studies at Hogwarts while dealing with a very powerful secret diary that begins to seize her soul and consciousness. Wright's role in the next film, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban was significantly smaller, but in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire she had a slightly larger role and in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix she had a role as one of the six characters fighting in the climactic battle. Wright reprises her role in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, where her character plays a central role as Harry Potter's love interest.
With a bigger part Wright received mostly positive reviews. Variety wrote, "Bonnie Wright’s Ginny intrigues as the sort of initial plain Jane who keeps growing on you."[7]
Wright reprised her role in the final two films Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 and Part 2. Wright has also provided the voice of Ginny Weasley in the video game versions of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
