In the film adaptations, Fred and George are played by real-life twins James and Oliver Phelps. Unlike the characters in the novels, the Phelps twins are quite tall and lanky. The actors are also not natural redheads and had to have their hair dyed for the films.
James Andrew Eric Phelps and Oliver Martyn John Phelps (born 25 February 1986) are English actors and identical twin brothers. They are known for playing Fred and George Weasley in the Harry Potter film series from 2001 to 2011 and have continued to work together as a duo on other projects.
Oliver Phelps was born about 13 minutes before his twin brother, James Phelps. He has always loved acting and appeared in many high school drama productions. In 2000 he and his brother were picked to play Fred (James) and George (Oliver) Weasley in the film adaptations of the Harry Potter book series by J.K. Rowling.
Well, it might be nice to hear that both actors behind Fred and George Weasley, the iconic and “pathetically dimwitted” Weasley twins, are alive and well. Keep reading to see what James and Oliver Phelps have been up to since the magical franchise ended.

In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Fred and George are members of the Order of the Phoenix and serve as two of Harry's six decoys when he escapes Privet Drive. George loses one of his ears to Snape's Sectumsempra curse (which was aimed at a Death Eater's wand hand, but missed).
In the book, Fred's last lines are spent marveling over his estranged brother Percy joining them for the fight and cracking a joke. He's described as gleefully saying, "You actually are joking, Perce ... I don't think I've heard you joke since you were —" immediately before his death.
In the book he is hit by Sectumsempra, which is cast by Snape. The fact it hits George is actually a mistake, as Snape was aiming at Dolohov who was aiming a killing curse at Lupin's back.
He doesn't speak and his face is hardly seen, so this casting choice seems to be almost exclusively down to the need for a tall person to play the half-giant.
They get scolded by their mother, Molly Weasley for many things that they do (for example, Apparating right in front of her eyes in Order of the Phoenix.)

Also in that same year as a requirement of the Triwizard Tournament traditions Hogwarts would hold a Yule Ball. Angelina was asked to the Yule Ball by Fred Weasley, which she accepted and soon became romantically involved with him.
The battle of Hogwarts took place on May the 2nd, 1998. So yes, Fred was 20 when he died. Read all seven Harry Potter books. Fred Weasly was 2 years above Ron who was born in 1980, so Fred was born in 1978, which would make him around 20 when he died during the Battle of Hogwarts in 1998..
In the play "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child," which has become part of "Harry Potter" canon, it was revealed that Bellatrix conceived a child with none other than Lord Voldemort.

In the film, she only hugs Harry, and just gives a hesitant handshake to Ron (Note: This was the result of Emma Watson being hesitant to hug both Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint in public view, with her hugging Radcliffe during filming having to be frozen for a few seconds to get the desired effect due to Watson ...
