- I Am Not Spock: Comes with being in Harry Potter, obviously.
- Mandatory Line: Often the extent of her role in the earlier films.
- Promotion to Opening Titles: Finally got to be listed in the main titles on Half-Blood Prince. Of course, it's not really the "opening" titles, since, like the Star Wars films, the Harry Potter films save all the credits for the end.
- Romance on the Set: With Jamie Campbell Bower, who plays young Grindelwald.
