When comparing books and their movie adaptations, books almost always prove to be better. One of the reasons is that a film does not always manage to convey the same imagery as a book in which emotions are blended with visuals. When reading, one can form a completely different image of a place or a character and have entirely another general feeling of a story. 

When creating a film adaptation, the cast is usually chosen according to the characteristics described in a book. However, the looks are not always so precise. With that in mind, one Vietnamese woman (to her followers known as MsBananaAnna) decided to use artificial intelligence to see what Harry Potter characters would look like based on book descriptions.

More info: twitter.com | imgur.com | Instagram

Bored Panda got in touch with the author of this idea to learn more about her and this project. The woman revealed that she's a 28-year-old "nerd" living in Melbourne. She has been a huge "Potterhead" since grade school. "I basically grew up with Harry, Ron, and Hermoine and remember waiting in line at midnight for the release of each book."

RELATED:

    "I came up with the idea to recreate the characters when I tried to find some fanworks of Hermione. I watched the movies and though I like Emma Watson, I always thought she was too gorgeous to be Hermione. I couldn't find any renditions of her that I thought were accurate so I ended up making her myself. People seemed to enjoy it so much that I decided to make more characters."

    While some characters look similar to the ones one sees in the movies, others look nothing like them. For MsBananaAnna, Sirius was the one she personally liked the most. "I thought that was plucked straight from my head. Artbreeder can be pretty limiting in what you can do and can be a bit twiddly so not all of the characters came out as I wanted, but I thought Sirius came out as I imagined him! Dark and regally handsome."

    Sure they give her realistic looking green eyes, while giving Harry those florescent orbs.

    Because, she was portrayed as a ugly duckling in the book. Buck toothed with wild bushy hair. JK Rollings actually questioned if Emma Watson would be right for the role, since she was too pretty. She was a geek to the core and became one of the most important characters in the book. Letting you know, don't judge a book by the cover. (Pun not intended, but it fits)

    Like Luna Lovegood, they did cast a more well-looking actor for Hermione Granger than the character in the books. The movieworld love to pretty up their protagonists.. Hermione Granger was described as having bushy brown hair and brown eyes. With large buck teeth. - Only in a later book, she had them made smaller magically by Madam Promfrey after a curse by Draco.

    She had prominent front teeth as mentioned in the book. Her dentist parents wanted to fix and possibly apply braces. After the long tooth spell aimed at Harry hit her, the nurse reversed the process slight down further to 'normalcy'. Hair could have been more bushy.

    Yeah I know that. I wasn't suggesting she needs bright white teeth. But these are extra yellow. Teeth yellow with age and she's not old enough for that color. Unless she's smoking and drinking coffee. BTW my original comment was in jest. These aren't pictures of real people. You know that right?

    I know these are not real people, but it's ok when they look like them. And even children can have yellowish teeth (although I do not think they ARE so very yellow). I had. My children do too. My dentist said it's genetic. Plus: we do drink lots of tee and tee is one of the reasons for yellow teeth. And as nearly no one in my country bleeches their teeth, it's not "abnormal" or "ugly" or even out of the ordinary.

    Our bones ar3 actually not really white. And i brushed my teeth very well as a kid too, but i nver had clean white color. More like a cream white, obvious that teeth wouldn't be a bright white as well. Also, i have one teeth, just oney that is outstandingly more yellowish then the rest, and my dentist told me its healthy and there is no problem with it. So, sometimes teeth can be more yellow for unknown reasonsy, probably jus tlike people have different reactions to many many things in life.

    I dont think she was meant to look like an ugly humanoid troll though ..she was described as somewhat nerdy with shaggy hair, thats all.. As the stories progressed she actually was described to have grown into herself quite beautfilly, prompting Ron to like her.. I think this is probably the worst rendition of your characters.. But I do think some other portrayels of some characters are pretty accurate..

    Only morons who think it's okay to blackwash characters (but a cardinal sin to whitewash! Neither is okay -- leave established characters the way they were established) do. JK Rowling literally pointed out any time a character wasn't white (Dean Thomas, Lee Jordan, Angelina Johnson, etc.), but she never once said Hermione was black.

    Well, those morons would include the author of the books, though. JK has said she never specified Hermione's race on purpose, and it makes sense for her to be black, and she was happy to have the character cast as black in Cursed Child. Now, JK is a moron about many things, and is certainly guilty of pretending her books are more diverse after the fact. But I say we take her on her word on this one, because why not?

    Here’s the quote from the book. Hermione is black. "They were there, both of them, sitting outside Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlor—Ron looking incredibly freckly, Hermione very brown, both waving frantically at him." Very brown! White ppl are white. Whether they lay in the sun or a tanning bed to emulate POCs doesn’t matter bc the color doesn’t remain. She is not white. 🤣

Honestly, Emma watson in the 1 and 2 movies is a great portrayal of Hermione, with a slightly prettier face but Hermione wasnt meant to be ugly, just average but also unkempt because she focuses on school...

    The eyebrows are weird. I get that they were going for too heavy eyebrows, but something isn't right with it. Also thought her hair was supposed to be a lot more untamable. This just looks curly unkempt. And what's with the 'recently dead' skin tone?

    The teeth don't look right. The books made a big deal about her having overlarge buckteeth... until Madam Pomfrey shrunk them and she "let her carry on a bit" that is.

    Hermione was supposed to be black. This just looks like a warped version of Emma Watson. In fact, a lot of these just look like distorted versions of the actors who played them. Not very imaginative

    Because 1. the majority of successful A and B list American actors are usually attractive anyway (blame Hollywood) and 2. Because real people, like you and me, don't have make-up crews to powder out every pore, zit, scar and mole for 2 hours before getting in front of the camera. Look around you. Most people are average with a few good traits and a few that are not generally considered as good (again, by Hollywood standards). That is all just a construct anyway and totally superficial. Is it more important to you that your favorite characters are hot or that they have depth? You decide what matters to you. For me, I'll take a layered character over a shiny one any day of the week. Which is ironic for book fans to even care about anyway since you create those characters in your minds eye first anyway based on the author's description. The big screen character will always never be what you pictured in that big beautiful brain of your anyway, innit?

    Emma Watson pretty much nails this look, especially in the first few movies

    Think she is cute not perfect. Emma Watson was way too pretty for the role. All they did was miss up her hair a bit and she was suppose to look plain. Come on really

    She had buck teeth in the books until she was hit with a tooth lengthening spell. She let Madam Pomphrey shrink her teeth until they were ""normal"" sized. She couldn't cast a spell before because her parents wanted her to get braces (they're muggle dentists).

    Apparently she is actually black according to J.K. Rowling. They also tried to make he have buck teeth in the movie but she could not act in them.

    She's not black. In prisoner of azkaban there's a time when harry says Hermione's face turned white from fear. I dont think that's possible if you have dark skin(i have dark skin). Rowling is just trying to be inclusive

    Why do her teeth look like that, when her parents are dentists? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Hair isn’t bushy enough and the teeth aren’t nearly big enough.

    This one really reminds me of an actor or actress. I can't really name it? It's like a mixture of famous people I know but I can't tell them apart. SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP.

    I forgot that Petunia was blonde. Odd that they wouldn't just make her wear a wig for her scenes.

    Why did the AI make wall-eyed? Was that described in the book? Book 6 isn't my fave so I've not read it enough to remember.((people have already pointed out the description that I wasn't recalling. Kinda don't need multiple comments restating the same thing))

    Longer hair. Earring with a fang. More cool, less dorky. Probably got confused with Percy.

    No, sorry, but even before seeing Maggie Smith in that role she was the spitting image for my personal McGonagall.
