"It won't be so hard for me, I won't have to start from the bottom, I've got my foot in there but at the same time I still have to prove myself," she said..

"Harry Potter was such an amazing experience but I didn't do so much acting, I probably did more promotion work for the films than anything. So I want to do bigger roles," she said.

"We are all still in touch using social networks and emails. It is hard to keep in touch with everyone all the time, and some of the cast are just rubbish at it. But I have stayed in contact with all my closest friends from the films," she said.
