Warner Bros. announced today that they have narrowed down the 15,000 Luna Lovegood hopefuls who turned up at the open casting call on Saturday to just 400. OOTP casting director Fiona Weir said:
"We were really amazed at the response and would like to say a big thank you to everyone who gave up their Saturday. Even though we had many thousands more than anticipated, we were determined to see everyone who came along."
Those girls who made it through to round two had a wide range of accents, backgrounds and ethnicity, coming from all over Britain and Ireland, said WB. The film company's casting department will shortly contact those auditionees they wish to see again.
