Introduction
Emma Watson is best known for her role as Hermoine Granger from the Harry Potter series. More recently she has done modelling work for some of the biggest brands in the world. Emma, now 19, regularly appears near the top of 'world's sexiest' and 'most beautiful' polls.
Life Story
Emma Watson was born in Paris, France, daughter of Jacqueline Luesby and Chris Watson, English lawyer. Watson has one French grandmother and lived in Paris until the age of five, before she moved with her mother and younger brother, Alex, to Oxfordshire, England, following her parents' divorce.
From the age of six, Watson expressed a desire to become an actress.
At the age of 7 Emma won 1st prize in a school poetry recital: The Daisy Pratt poetry competition. Emma was just 9 years old when casting agents traveled to many different schools in England looking for talented children to audition for the parts of Harry, Ron and Hermione in the upcoming Harry Potter movies. Emma recalls that she auditioned for the part as Hermione because her friends did and she thought it would “be a laugh.” Her drama teacher at the time recommended Emma to the casting agents who obviously saw the same potential in her and was short listed for the role after several auditions. After being paired with several different “Ron’s” and several different “Harry’s”, Emma was called into the producers office alongside Rupert Grint who were both told at the same time that they had won the parts as Hermione and Ron.
At the age of 10, Emma began filming the her first role as Hermione Granger in: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone – the first installment of the Harry Potter movies taken from the hugely popular books written by J.K Rowling. Even though Ms Rowling had not yet met Emma, she had said that after a chat on the phone with her she knew there and then that she was absolutely perfect for the role as the books main female character Hermione Granger.
Emma is still working on the Harry Potter movies to this day and now at the age of 18, she also has the massively successful “Chamber of Secrets”, “Prisoner of Azkaban”, “Goblet of Fire”, and "Order of the Phoenix" under her belt, and "the Half-Blood Prince" will be in theatres July 2009. Emma will also reprise her role as Hermione in both parts of the 7th Harry Potter movie.
Emma more than lives up to her Hermione reputation after passing all 10 of her GCSE exams in the summer of 2006 with 8 A* (the highest grade you can get) and 2 A's. Emma also achieved straight A's in her AS and A Levels. She is expected to attend Brown University to study Liberal Arts in the Fall of '09.
