Rupert Grint

Rupert Grint may be the bestRonald Weasleywe could have possibly imagined. While he brought justice to every element of Ron, he couldn’t manage to get into Gryffindor. As a true Weasley, Ron was sorted into the Gryffindor house. But when Rupert took the Wizarding World Hogwarts Quiz, he got Hufflepuff. Though surprised, the actor was happy about the results.

Tom Felton

Tom Feltonplayed one of the most despised characters in the franchise as Harry’s nemesis, Draco Malfoy. Unlike his Slytherin character’s notorious reputation, Felton has enjoyed a lot of popularity for his acting chops and handsome looks. In 2020, the actor took theWizarding World Hogwarts Sorting Quizand got sorted into Hufflepuff. This house is famously known for being hard-working and generous wizards. Being so used to watching Tom grow up as Draco on the screen, it is kind of hard to see him as a Hufflepuff.

Evanna Lynch

One of the quirkiest characters and a sweetheart to the series, Luna Lovegood was introduced inHarry Potter and the Order of the Phoenixand immediately added spice to the story. Evanna did an unparalleled job in bringing life into Luna’s character. As the series proceeded, it gradually revealed her wit and intelligence. The enigmatic Luna was indeed a perfect Ravenclaw. But Evanna’s heart has always belonged to the Gryffindor house. Back in 2016, she was one of the cast members to be filmed taking theWizarding World Hogwarts Sorting Quiz. On finding out that she was a Gryffindor, Evanna was “thrilled, but also not surprised”.

James Phelps

James and his twin brother Oliver played the widely admired Weasley twins. Just like every Weasley in the generation,Fred and Georgewere also sorted in the Gryffindor house. But in real life, while Oliver got Gryffindor, James got Hufflepuff as his house during a Q&A session with the Wizarding World.

Matthew Lewis

Matthew’s Harry Potter character, Neville Longbottom had significant character development in the series. He used to be a scared and forgetful little kid who grew up to be one of the bravest young wizards in Dumbledore’s Army. Considering his courage and generous heart, Neville was undoubtedly a Gryffindor through and through. But Matthew, on the other hand, learnt that he was a Hufflepuff onWizarding World Hogwarts Sorting Quiz. The actor turned out to be pretty excited about the result.
