It’s absolutely riddikulus how a Weasley family reunion happened but only three members showed up! Muggle-loving wizards… tsk tsk..
But in the real world, that’s exactly what happened. Kinda.
Recently James and Oliver Phelps aka Fred and George Weasley, had a virtual reunion with their on-screen sister, Bonnie Wright aka Ginny Weasley.

Potterheads will be glad to know that the Weasley Family is just as close in real life as they are in the Harry Potter franchise.
If you didn’t know, James and Oliver have a podcast called Double Trouble where just like the Weasley twins; you can expect tons of comedy and mischief.
On the latest episode of the podcast, the twins decided to invite their on-screen sister to join them as they discussed almost everything under the sun, including their work, poems and of course, Harry Potter.

It may be 20 years since James, Oliver and Bonnie first met on set but the trio were able to recall the first moment of meeting their “film family” perfectly, especially when they shot the King’s Cross station scene in The Philosopher’s Stone.
Bonnie shared the the gratitude she had for Julie Walters who played Molly Weasley, as the actress took the shy, young girl under her wing that first day.
“I remember her being very much like, ‘Here, I’ve got you,” she said. “And I remember feeling so much safer knowing that I had her showing me the way – not knowing at that age what an amazing actress and career she had.”
Besides their first day in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, the Weasley trio also talked about their life on set and remarked that as the cast were all so young, the filmmakers were able to find the right “balance” in what “could’ve been chaos.”
They also talked about how the filmmakers ensured that the cast were focused on the job but also kept schooling and “fun” as a vital part of their experience.
“We had to get three hours minimum in a day of schooling, which, basically many kids now understand that rule now,” Oliver joked.
Unfortunately, the rest of the Weasley family were unable to join the podcast reunion especially as Ron Weasley aka Rupert Grint had recently welcomed a baby girl with Georgia Groome.
Of course, Potterheads everywhere were excited for a Weasley family reunion, but of course, many were questioning where the other members were.
We really hope that there’ll be a full Weasley family reunion soon!
