Lately Evanna – who portrayed Luna Lovegood in the Harry Potter series – has focused on hosting and producing the first season of her  vegan podcast, The Chickpeeps, with co-hosts Robbie Jarvis (Harry Potter‘s Young James Potter), The Protego Foundation‘s co-founder Tylor Starr, and ocean conservation activist Momoko Hill. Evanna also recently appeared in the New York and London runs of Disco Pigs (see photos from her rehearsal below), and in Irish movie My Name is Emily.
