The year 2016 has come and gone, and our Potter alumni welcomed in the new year in style. A new year means new goals, aims, and projects. Here’s a roundup of some of the recent social media highlights for our favorite Potter alumni!

Bonnie Wright shared an on-set picture and looked forward to all that 2017 will bring.

 

This year my work has been my happy place. Being on set collaborating with fellow artists is where I love to be. Pictured here with Kerry Fox and Jason Isaacs directing my third short film, ‘Medusa’s Ankles’ with an amazing 40 person cast and crew. I look forward to sharing with you in 2017 the films I’m proud to be making ❤️?? @bonbonlumiere

Recurs yearly

2004

It’s high time I paid homage to the mighty MuggleNet. Where to start? I love the design, (I currently favour the ‘Dementor’ layout), the polls (I actually voted in the ‘Who’s the Half-Blood Prince?’ one), the pretty-much-exhaustive information on all books and films, the wonderful editorials (more insight there than in several companion volumes I shall not name), 101 Ways to Annoy Lord Voldemort (made me laugh aloud), the Wall of Shame (nearly as funny as some of the stuff I get)… pretty much everything. Webmaster Emerson, Eric, Jamie, Damon, Ben, Matthew, Rachel, Jaymz and Sharon, I salute you.
