The Women Of Harry Potter 20 Years Later

START SLIDESHOW

Let's face it - most kids of the 90s and 00s are still obsessed with Harry Potter. We re-read the books, we re-watch the films, we buy all of the merchandise. Basically, we just can't get enough of anything Harry Potter related. And who could blame us? It's only the greatest series of all time!

The obsession runs deep. Though the first book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (also printed as Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in the USA) was released more than 20 years ago, we still seek out any information we can get, particularly when it comes to the eight Harry Potter films.

One standout feature of all the Harry Potter movies is the phenomenal cast. And today, we're focusing specifically on the ladies who managed to steal the show. You won't believe how grown up and successful some of them are today - we remember most of them when they were just little kids!
