Emma Watson was interviewed by the Daily Express and thanks to SnitchSeeker there are some scans online! In the interview Emma talks about Brown, Deathly Hallows and more! See the scan and read a segment below.
Escaping Potter’s grasp she starred in the BBC drama Ballet Shoes in 2007 and voiced Princess Pea in the animated feature The Tale of Despereaux but despite recently saying “I don’t want to act again” she can’t quit just yet.
Potter producers have scheduled filming to allow her to attend college and film her remaining scenes during her holidays. The last day of filming Harry Potter draws close, however.
“I will be…uncontrollable,” she says, picturing that final day on set. “It’s been half our lives. It’s made up, it’s formed us. It’s such a big part of my life it will be really sad.”
Emma is still debating whether to continue with acting long term. “I just want to be sure it’s what I want. I was so young and I don’t think I really knew the greatness of what I was signing on for. I really want to study. I would love to try theatre. I need to try stuff out. But I say all this now, I’m sure I’ll still be here in 10 years making Harry Potter 30.”
At the end of the final Potter movie the script currently calls for an epilogue set more than 20 years in the future, showing Harry, Ron and Hermione as adults.
“We will look like 40-year-olds,” she say, with Part I coming out in November and Part II in July 2011. “I can’t wait to see that.”
For now she’s happy to focus on her studies and, most of the time, to let others do the cooking.
If you haven’t noticed, we have a button to Helping Haiti Heal on the top of the sidebar, if you don’t know what it is: WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?! Ha ha. Anyways, its a fundraiser by some other Potter sites to help relieve Haiti after the earthquake. The fundraiser, which has, according to Leaky:
raised nearly $97,000. If we get to $105,000, Partners in Health will name the three full cargo planes (full of medical supplies and other desperately needed equipment) that we have funded after three wizards we know well: Harry, Ron, and Hermione.
JK Rowling has sent a message to everyone who has donated:
To everyone who has helped raise such an incredible amount for the earthquake survivors in Haiti: THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
Like many others, I made a personal donation to the DEC shortly after the earthquake happened; but never did I expect such an amazing response from all of you. You cannot imagine how awed, moved and humbled I am to know that planes named Harry, Ron and Hermione are going to be flying off to help. I did not need this to remind me how extraordinary Harry’s fans are, but you keep giving me proofs. THANK YOU! – Jo
Donations are open until Saturday so if you haven’t donated, or even if you have, head over here to donate!
