| | |  Emma Watson: "My biggest fear is getting stereotyped."
The Times of India has a new interview with Emma Watson in which she discusses her role in the Potter films as Hermione and how that may affect her career in the future. Note: The article quotes Emma swearing. However the profanity does not appear in the original newspaper article (which can be viewed here.) Quote:
"My biggest fear is getting stereotyped. I want to do other things. I would hate to have another actress in the role (of Hermione). There is so much of me in her. Of course, JK Rowling wrote the character, but, in film terms, I had a part in creating her".
Quote:
"I am very careful to separate the two — there is Hermione, there is Emma. There is a professional life and a private life. I never mix the two."

I don't want Emma to put herself into the character, I want her to be Hermione. If Rupert can be Ron, and Dan can be Harry, then she should be Hermione. That is like Rene Zellweger deciding not to use an english accent as Bridget Jonas. Is she still Bridget? Well yeah, but "Bridget Jones Comes Home To Texas." What am I talking about! I'm a little off tonight. Working on the analogies here. So what will Hermione do next? Maybe she will wear braces and then record a pop album.

She sounds grounded in this interview. Although I've never been staisfied with the way she portrayed Hermione (she's okay, not just what I had in my head), I think she could be a good actor. And she's absolutely beautiful. I wanna see her in other films!  | |

I definately agree with you. I just want Emma to act as Hermione, not create Emmione. Is that too much to ask? I think Dan will have the biggest problem with stereotyping, not her. She's a pretty girl who will probably continue acting at least a little while after HP. | |

Acting Hermione or not, stereotyping is common in today's society for everybody. | |

A part in ruining her, more like.

that girl has her head screwed on right she is so level headed for someone so young.
I'm sure she will do well in what ever she does after hp however it's hardly supriseing thats what she is scared of because she's in a massively successful series of films like hp!

Well that is a shame about her swearing, but you know so many people swear these days, that it's not uncommon for people to swear. I mean I don't think that she was trying to sound bad when she was saying that, I think she was just more enthusiastic. I don't know though. I mean people swear, and personally I don't prefer it, but I won't dislike her for it. A lot of my good friends swear and I still like them all the same.
