Social Media Roundup: Projects, Positivity, and Hot Dogs?

by Shachi Tiwari · August 13, 2017

From ongoing persistence and determination on work projects to a desperate craving for a New York–style hot dog, the Harry Potter alumni seem busier (and hungrier) than ever!

First up, check out Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy) as Captain Gabriel Lorca in Star Trek: Discovery. We think Isaacs looks incredible! Don’t you?

Next, Bonnie Wright, who clearly loves what she does, just recently directed a commercial celebrating girl power.  As Professor Dumbledore wisely states, “It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.” We couldn’t be happier for or more impressed with Bonnie!

Moving along, it appears that Tom Felton can hardly take any time off as he works on his new movie, Whaling. With filming taking place in Oklahoma, it is heartwarming to see a smiling Tom with the rest of his happy cast.

And did you check out the final episode of Ripper Street to see Matthew Lewis as Detective Inspector Drummond? From playing Neville Longbottom to playing a detective, is there anything that Matthew can’t do?

 

The last EVER episode of #RipperStreet is on #BBCTwo tonight. Detective Inspector Drummond has his work cut out for him. And when I say him, I mean me. DI Drummond is me. K bye.

Jessie Cave (Lavender Brown) has some exciting news… Her brother will be getting married this weekend, and for Jessie, that of course means a special doodle dedicated to a Potter-themed wedding!

And finally, Robert Pattinson (Cedric Diggory) proves that he is just like the rest of us when it comes to food. Check out this video to see if he ends up getting his New York hot dog that he so desperately craves… And don’t worry Robert, we understand!
