According to CBBC Newsround
, the father of Katie Leung, says that she is still coming to terms with the news that she has been chosen to play Cho Chang in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
Peter Leung reportedly told the Daily Record:
"It's obviously a great part to get and it's a happy time for all the family. Katie is coming back up next week and she's supposed to be getting a press officer and things like that."
Additional, Warner Bros. have decided not to announce the names of the people playing Cho Chang, Cedric Diggory and Fleur Delacour, because the young actors are currently taking important exams. They have also denied a rumor that French actress Audrey Tautou
would be playing Madame Maxime.

Grr...She is so lucky! I would give almost anything to get to meet Dan and go on the sets and see the movie being filmed. (Well, and play Cho but I don't care about that as much as the rest)

I bet it is hard to come to grips with this. It will most definitely effect her life and career. I imagine it is very exciting.

That's really good for her! I bet her father is extremely proud!
Wow, a press officer...Sounds important! That's just a fancy word for Agent isn't it?
Anyway, what I'd really like to see is a picture of her! I mean, a clearer picture.

Wow!! That is so cool! But *ahem* WB made a slip-up...They really meant to cast Katie Linning *cough ME! cough* instead of Katie Lueng...Wow..this must be really embarrassing for them...

If you'd notice, it says CBBC reported and annouced that Katie got the part. So far, The WB hasn't confirmed anything. Therefore, it's just a very likey rumor at the moment.

Way to go Katie! I bet she is so excited. I don't know what she looks like though. I hope it is at least something similar to what I have pictured in my head.

She is very lucky, not just because she gets to be with Dan and Rupert, but because she is going to live the dream that many young hopefuls would want. To star in a movie that will make them known for their whole lives. I'd die to even have a small role on a small film, I just want to act. Lucky gurl, I bet she'll be great. I wish there was a better photo of her though. Go Katie, its your b-day! We gon' partay like its your b-day!

A dream come true for a young girl indeed, and I'm sure she'll get other parts because of this role.
I, like almost everyone else, want to see better pictures of her though, the ones I've seen so far.. well, they're so blurry I can't really see anything at all. Annoying.
She's supposed to be very pretty though, so getting cast as her is indeed a big compliment. :)
Oooh, Dan has to kiss her in OotP.. I can just picture the Dan-fangirls going crazy over that! ;)

She must be on cloud nine right now. It must be amazing: you start as an HP fan and you end up playing Harry's first crush. And you get to work with Emma, Rupert and Daniel! That's every potterholics dream I supose. I do believe she'll do great! Best of luck to you Katie and have fun!

Great, I hope she is good. Madam Maxime doesn't look so good to me. I hope she will be better in the film. Why wouldn't you be proud of your daughter if she was chosen to be in Harry Potter? Well, good for her, congradulations!

Katie is so lucky, this is a chance of a lifetime. To all the Dan fans out there, he might not be in the fifth, however, remember that Cho has to kiss Harry. When the kissing scene does come, remember that Dan is being Harry, not himself. SO RELAX. Anyway good luck to Katie. :)
P.S. I would love to be in HP if I lived in the UK!
