Evanna and the Twins in Spain!

First spotting of Evanna and the boys in Spain! From this video it seems they stopped in the city of Malaga for a short question-and-answer session, along with a meet-and-greet. Though not the best quality, captures from the video can be seen in our galleries. And yes, Evanna is wearing her Spectrespecs!

Also while they hung in Spain, the boys and Evanna were interviewed by La Opinon de Malaga which includes a brand new photoshoot image! Viewable here, the photo is hopefully the first of many, many pictures to emerge this weekend! Rough translation of the interview coming up soon – for now, check out the picture!

She looks shy, and she really is. She acknowledges the fact that it was being a true Harry Potter fan that saw her dream come true after being cast to play the role of Luna Lovegood in the series. “I would have settled for any other role, but I’ve always identified myself with Luna” she declares in an interview.

How was your experience as you was incorporated into the cast?
When I got to the set everyone there were my idols. The movies were already a success. I felt I was with the ‘créme de la créme’ Only having the opportunity to meet Daniel Radcliffe was the best, and it took me a long time to see myself as part of the cast, I felt like a fan. The words didn’t come out when I was with them, I couldn’t be natural. I felt that I had to show everyone what I was worth. I was a fan and suddenly I had to act as if I’ve been with them from the very beginning. But they made things easy for me, they were all very nice with me so I got used to it without much difficulty

What do you have in common with Luna Lovegood?
We’re both open minded, we like to elaborate our own opinions on matters without anyone influencing us. What separates us is that I have my feet planted on the ground. I’d never say I was her because that would mean I’d stop growing. I don’t think she’s in a fantasy world, but her own. Where we should all be.

Luna and Harry with their differences, have a special connection.
It gives the impression that Luna us crazy, but she has a good intuition and see things from an objective point of view. Harry needs her because he’s too distracted by the world, and sees what she doesn’t care that he’s the chosen one. Luna’s very sincere and contributes to Harry clairvoyancy.

If you could make a potion, what would it be?
Definitely Felix Felicis, find the happiness without anyone taking it from you. I love that feeling when you believe in yourself. It’s like when Ron believes he’s drunk the potion. Maybe there’s nothing in Felix Felicis, the secret could be in that it gives you the confidence to do what you want.

There’s a rumour that Rhys Ifans could be cast as Luna’s father, Xenophilius, in the next film.
He’s brilliant. I’ve dared my own father to show up to the casting because he even looks like him, but I don’t think he could act on-screen simply because of how he is. Rhys Ifans is perfect, and very sweet. He was filming one day for the next films and I was on set for rehearsals. We don’t have many scenes together so we don’t see each other often. When he saw me he was wearing his bathrobe and crazy hair, he hugged me and said “I’ve missed you”. He’s charming.

(This translation is most likely to be extremely flawed, I’m working from Babelfish and my miniscule knowledge of Spanish. Still having troubles with the last question, “It is rumored that Rhys Iffans is playing Luna’s father, Xenophilius, in the next movies.”, but it should be up soon.)
