Last month we celebrated Matthew’s 22nd birthday, and today (July 30th) we get to celebrate Neville Longbottom’s birthday! Neville is turning 31 years old today!

As we all know Neville was very important in the defeat of the Dark Lord Voldemort in 1998.  Neville was a true Gryffindor and we all love him to pieces! He is currently the Herbology professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and is married to Hannah Abbot.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NEVILLE!

Neville Longbottom has made TotalFilm’s list of the 50 Greatest Harry Potter Characters. Neville comes in at lucky number 13 with the following information:

As Played By: Matthew Lewis

The Character: Having spent most of the early stories as the bumbling butt of everybody’s jokes, Neville really comes into his own as times grow darker, first as a willing and able member of Dumbledore’s Army, and finally as a key player in the Battle of Hogwarts. Wielding the sword of Gryffindor like a champ, it is he who takes out the serpent Nagini, destroying a fragment of Voldemort’s soul in the process.

Key Quote: (To Voldemort) “I’ll join you when hell freezes over.”
