Emma Watson like you’ve never seen her before

Emma Watson is featured and interviewed in the November issue of Flare magazine. The 18-year-old actress talks about her experience working in the Harry Potter films and her relationship with costars Rupert Grint and Daniel Radcliffe.

Famous for her role as the brilliant Hermione in the Harry Potter movies, Watson has learned from her experiences in film and has stayed grounded while her career has taken off. She has also developed into quite the style-setter and shows off some of the latest fashions in our exclusive shoot. Learn what’s next for Watson as she discusses her relationships with her co-star friends, dealing with fame, and her favourite designers.

The evidence of her success is compelling. At nine years old, she was among thousands of girls vying to play the coveted role of Hermione and her eagerness to thrive at the character slowed down shooting during Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. “I wanted everything to be so perfect. I would work so hard to memorize my lines and the scene; we would have to stop shooting because I was mouthing Rupert [Grint]’s and Dan [Radcliffe]’s lines at the same time. That’s something I had to get over.”

Seven years later, the young actor has graduated to blockbuster star status. She’s learned to position herself in her best light, she’s stopped looking straight into the camera, she knows the different between the key grip and a dolly, and she’s just wrapped one of her most challenging scenes in the highly anticipated Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, slated for release in July 2009. “I had to cry for the first time when Hermione watches Ron kiss Lavender. It was difficult to bring up all that emotion and hurt in front of a full crew, and not just once, but over and over again from different angles.” (Flare magazine)
