A few ironic things I found out about some of the actors in "Harry Potter".

Rupert Grunt grew exactly how Ron did. Convenient.

Emma plays the oldest of the trio, but as far as I know she's the youngest of the three actors.

Emma was born in France, and Hermione vacationed in Frace.

I think the thing about Hermione being the oldest while Emma Watson is the yyoungest is sort-of ironic, but the rest of those things are more examples coincidences than irony.
Also, Emma Watson also vacationed in France as well as being born there. Smile

Yes, you're right about her being born and vacationing there. I guess your right it's more of coincidences than irony. I couldn't think of the work before Laughing

i think the term "coincidence" here is more appropriate, i wouldn't call the similarities between the actors and their characters "irony"

I don't even think that they are good "coincidences" to be honest with you.
