Scarlett Byrne talks ‘Harry Potter’ and other fandoms she loves

British actress Scarlett Byrne returned to Mischief Management‘s annual Harry Potter fan convention LeakyCon. The convention took place in Dallas again this year–back by popular demand!–on Aug. 9-11.

Byrne portrayed Pansy Parkinson in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2. In recent years, Byrne took on roles in genre TV shows Falling Skies and The Vampire Diaries. She was part of the “Hogwarts Students” panel that took place on Saturday Aug. 10 with fellow guests and former co-stars Tom Felton, Afshan Azad, Georgina Leonidas, and Tiana Benjamin.
