With the cast reuniting for Harry Potter's 20th Anniversary Return To Hogwarts set for release on New Year's Day, Bonnie uploaded a teaser snap to her Instagram page with the caption: "It’s going to be a very special New Year’s Day 🥂."

She can be seen on the far right of shot, with her auburn hair in a poker straight style and wearing a green jumper.

Previously, Bonnie showed off her new look as she modelled a bikini made from plastic bottles.

Showing off her toned figure, the actress wore the blue print two-piece before modelling a red swimsuit from the Fair Harbor swimwear campaign 2019 as she hit the waves.

Bonnie’s latest role sees her as "an advocate for the ocean and mitigation of single sue plastics".

Each suit is made from recycled plastic bottles to help bring awareness to the systemic issue and to give plastic a second life, with 15% of proceeds from the purchase of these bathing suits are donated to Heal the Bay.

Bonnie appeared as the Weasley’s sister, who ended up marrying Harry Potter, from 2001- 2011.

She was only 10 years old when she took on the part and has since gone on to be writer, director and producer.

She is currently working on a new thriller about pollution, telling The Tab: “It's my first feature film that hopefully I'm going to make at the end of this year.

“That's all about pollution, but in a very different space to the ocean. It's going to be a thriller, monster movie.”

And discussing her move into film making, she said: “Even when I was on all the Harry Potter sets I was always fascinated. If I ever had a quiet moment, like just watching people, I would imagine how I would direct the scene differently or pre-empt maybe what a director was going to say.

“I was always interested in how you have to look at the film set as a whole and rally everyone together.

"Especially getting the balance between giving someone freedom but also directing them. So I guess it all stemmed from there.

"And I knew I wanted to study. Partly as a right of passage and also because I could meet my contemporaries – like the people I'd actually end up making films with.”

HARRY Potter actress Bonnie Wright appeared on This Morning today as an expert - 21 years after first appearing in the hit films.

The star first appeared aged nine in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and went on to star in the next seven movies.

Bonnie played Ron's little sister Ginny, the youngest sibling in the Weasley family.

As Potter fans will know, Ginny becomes Harry's main love interest in JK Rowling's story and - spoiler alert - marries him at the end of the series.

Since finding fame in the films she graduated from university in London, then founded a production company and began making short films.

She has also directed music videos, including one for Scarlett Johansson's song Iguana Bird with Pete Yorn.

These days she is also known as an environmental activist and appeared on the show to talk about how to be sustainable.

If she was hoping hosts Dermot O'Leary and Alison Hammond didn't mention her Harry Potter past, she would have been disappointed.

Alison said: "Actress Bonnie Wright has taken a little bit of a break from spells to talk to us about sustainability and what we can do to help the planet.

"Can you believe it's been like 20 years since that scene?"

She replied: "I know, it's scary. Time flies. I didn't know I had a line until that day. They gave me that 'good luck' line."

An onscreen caption shown while she was on air made a nod to a Harry Potter-esque spell, reading: "Eco-spelliarmus!"

Bonnie also spoke about her book of eco tips, Go Gently: Actionable Steps To Nurture Yourself and the Planet, which came out last month.

Bonnie Wright, who played Ginny Weasley in the Harry Potter movies, revealed what she imagines her character and her husband, Harry, are up to almost 10 years after the final installment.

Harry Potter fans, get ready for a blast from the past—or maybe even a glimpse into a fictional present!

Bonnie Wright revealed her predictions on where her character, Ginny Weasley is today, and the answer is simply spellbinding. The 30-year-old actress shared her thoughts during a recent appearance at the grand re-opening of the Warner Bros. Studio tour in Hollywood, Calif., which will include new Harry Potter-themed activations. "We know she became a professional Quidditch player," Bonnie shared. "So, she's probably super sporty." Although fans might have predicted that answer, it sounds like Ginny would also be enjoying an enviable lifestyle, too.

"She's probably jet-setting around the world, and the kids would be at Hogwarts and having more freedom," she continued. "I have so much fun making these stories up! I often wonder what their house would look like, where would they be living, and what happens next."

As fans may recall, the younger sister of Ron Weasley and Ron's best friend a.k.a the main protagonist, Harry Potter (played by Daniel Radcliffe), ended up falling in love and becoming a couple when the series' ending jumped 19 years into the future. According to the ending, the couple also ended up having three children. So, what does Bonnie think happened to the pair's fairytale romance?

"She and Harry are, of course, still together and having lots of fun," she said. "He's keeping things under control and busy being a dad."

Not only does Bonnie still hold admiration for her memorable role, but she also added that she continues to think fondly of the impact the entire wizardry-centered series had on audiences throughout the years.

"As time has gone on since we finished the last film, I feel like my love and respect for it has grown more and more," the actress explained. "I've now been able to process what the whole thing was from the other side. When you're in the middle of the experience, you're busy being present, and you don't have the time to think of the enormity of it all."

"I've learned so much and met so many incredible people," she continued. "I especially love meeting young fans who weren't even alive when the movies were out. I just think, 'Wow! This is going to keep going in that generational kind of way.'"

And although it's been quite a while since the students of Hogwarts got together for an action-packed adventure, Bonnie also revealed that the cast has kept in touch, thanks to a special group chat.

"The typical thing where we check in on one another to see what we've been up to," she shared. "We always keep up with our milestones, like, you know, when people celebrate 10 years after they've graduated. In theory, now, it's been 11 years. Last summer, we were all celebrating our 10-year anniversary of graduating from Hogwarts. Hopefully, we'll be able to have a delayed graduation celebration soon outside of our chat."

With any luck, we'll see the star-studded cast make that wish come true sometime soon. Fingers (and wands) crossed!
