Despite the fame and credibility Harry has in the wizarding world, we see him suffering in almost every film, longing for a loving family while bearing the weight of being The Chosen One.

Voldemort acts as the antithesis to Harry, essentially being two different sides of the same coin. Fiennes played Voldemort with the calm, collected, psychotic tone needed to keep all of his followers in line, and present an imposing counterpart to Harry&#8217;s heroism.

What makes Hermione so lovable is her persistence, bravery, and loyalty. She sticks by Harry and Ron&#8217;s side despite what people say about them, and fights relentlessly to achieve what she believes is right. Even when Draco and other boys at Hogwarts try to make her feel less-than for being a Muggle-born, Hermione shows grace, confidence, and strength within herself.
