35 Photos Of What "Harry Potter" Characters Ought To Look Like As Per Its Book Descriptions
Their appearances are not always as precise as they seem.
Some Harry Potter fans have spent years imagining the characters exactly as they appear in the books, and one creator decided to put that vision to the test. Using AI tools, she reworked the familiar cast into versions that lean closer to the original descriptions, from Sirius Black to Voldemort and beyond.
The project comes from a Vietnamese woman known online as MsBananaAnna, a 28-year-old in Melbourne who has loved Harry Potter since grade school. She started experimenting after looking for fan art of Hermione, then kept going through the rest of the cast, even if the results were not always easy to shape.
Some of the characters landed almost exactly as she pictured them, and others took a few creative detours. Either way, the lineup gives fans plenty to compare with the films.

While reading a book, one can form an opinion about something entirely different regarding a person or a place and gain a broader sense of the story. Certain characters seem to resemble those we find in the films, but there are others who don’t resemble them at all.
