Arriving in cinemas worldwide for the first time in 2001, the “Harry Potter” franchise was responsible for catapulting the careers of great young actors, such as the golden trio Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter), Emma Watson (Hermione Granger), Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley), as well as having already renowned names in the industry, such as Alan Rickman (Severus Snape), Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid) and more.

13 years after the last film was released on the big screen, to this day, many fans recognize the actors due to their roles in the saga — even if they didn’t remain throughout all the films.

Last Monday, the 16th, many Potterheads were surprised by the confirmation of an actress who was present in the “Harry Potter” films in the fourth season of the Netflix series “Bridgerton”.

Harry Potter in Bridgerton?

The actress in question is Katie Leungknown for playing the character Cho Chang, one of Harry’s first romantic interests, during five films in the saga created by the author J.K. Rowling.

According to the announcement made by Netflix, Katie will give life to Lady Araminta Gun, a widow with a strong personality and presence at wedding events, who will do everything to ensure good gentlemen to marry her two daughters.

It is worth remembering that the fourth season of “Bridgerton” promises to adapt the events of “A Perfect Gentleman”, the third book in the series written by Julia Quinnwhich will focus on the couple Benedict Bridgeton and Sophie Beckett, played by Luke Thompson and Yerin Ha.

As reported by AdoroCinema, the plot of the main couple in the new episodes is inspired by the tale of Cinderella, popularized by the French author Charles Perrault in 1697, and which gained the world after Walt Disney’s adaptation for the animation of the same name, released in 1950. This is because Sophie, a character in Yerinlike Cinderella, is also a humble young woman who suffers mistreatment from her stepmother.
