HARRY Potter's Percy Weasley star Chris Rankin looks unrecognisable 20 years after his stint in the popular film franchise. The 38-year-old first hit our screens in 2001 as Ron Weasley's older brother in the Philosopher's Stone.

The New Zealand-born star started his acting career aged 11 when he starred in a number of schools plays. But he shot to fame seven years later as Percy Weasley in Harry Potter in the first film of the franchise.

A year later he also starred in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, and in 2003 reprised his role for Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.
