Natalia Tena, the actress who played Nymphadora Tonks in multiple “Harry Potter” movies, will participate for the first time in Universal Orlando’s “A Celebration of Harry Potter” event when it returns to the resort next month.
Tena, a native of London, appeared in “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,” then returned to the role for “Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince” and “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1” and “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2.”
Tena can also been seen as the character Osha in the HBO dramatic series “Game of Thrones.”
At the Universal Orlando event, Tena will be joined by fellow first-timer Stanislav Yanevski, who portrayed Viktor Krum in “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.” Other members of the “Potter” casts in attendance at Universal will be Bonnie Wright (who played Ginny Weasley) and twins James and Oliver Phelps (Fred and George Weasley).
The three-day event runs Jan. 26-28 at the resort. A Celebration of Harry Potter includes Q&A sessions with the film stars, interactive attractions, demonstrations special panels and the Harry Potter Expo.
Theme-park tickets and vacation packages are now on sale for the event. For more information, go to universalorlando.com
