Artist shows what the characters from Harry Potter would look like in the books – Hermione differs greatly from Emma Watson

When adapting books to film, the figures cannot always be displayed as they have been described. This is due to the fact that the stars of the films bring your own appearance. Often it is cast so that the optical appearance also fits together with the descriptions in the book, but you rarely end up with a precise hit. In the case of the Harry Potter films, talents such as Emma Watson (Hermione) and Rupert Grint (Ron) would not have been discovered so early in the case of much more fierce implementation.

So the Harry Potter figures could look true to the books

A Vietnamese artist who under the pseudonym Msbananaanna is known, took the descriptions from the Harry Potter novels and created pictures from it with the help of AI. So we can see how the popular characters would look much more like if they directly from the books would have come out.

Sirius Black

Sirius Black is Harry’s godfather and is shown in the films of Gary Oldman. In contrast to its film version, this picture has a shorter beard and actually black hair.

Lord Voldemort

Harry Potter’s arch enemy Lord Voldemort is very similar to Ralph Fiennes’s film version.

Tom Riddle

Before he became Lord Voldemort, Tom Riddle was an attractive young man. In Harry Potter and the chamber of horror, we saw Christian Coulson in the role, who wears curly hair.

Fred and George Weasley

The twins Fred and George Weasley are known for their silliness and pranks in Hogwarts. In the films they were portrayed by Oliver and James Phelps, who wore fewer freckles and smoother hair.

Severus Snape

Alan Rickman played Professor Severus Snape in the films and was surprisingly close to the description of the character.

Neville Longbottom

In the books, Neville is very clichéd described British. Apart from the dark hair, Matthew Lewis was very close to the template in the first films. After a growth thrust, Lewis almost became too attractive for his figure.

Draco Malfoy

Harry’s school rival Draco Malfoy is embodied in Tom Felton’s films. His look is very accurate to the book descriptions. However, Draco seems to appear even more emaciated and paler in the books.

Ginny Weasley

Ginny Weasley is Ron’s younger sister and one year younger than him and Harry. Actress Bonnie Wright doesn’t have so strong red hair and no such visible freckles.

Ron Weasley

Ronald Weasley is Harry Potter’s best friend. If you compare the book version with Ron actor Rupert Grint, Rupert’s round face also stand out in addition to the missing freckles.

Hermine Granger

Hermione is described in the books with brown, bushy hair and strikingly large front teeth. While Emma Watson also wore bushy hair in the first two films, nothing could be seen from the large front teeth.

As the films have shown, it doesn’t hurt the story – on the contrary, it can add new facets. We will probably not see what the implementation will ultimately look like until the end of 2026 or even 2027.
