| | Emma Watson talks Beauty and the Beast, The Bling Ring, Harry Potter with Elle
Emma Watson, as reported, was chosen as Elle magazine's Women of Hollywood for their annual issue, and will also be honoured at the publication's event this coming Monday for rising star. Emma's interview in the November issue is now online, where she teased about her upcoming films, The End of the World and Beauty and the Beast, and commented on how eager she was to get the role in Sofia Coppola's The Bling Ring.
Emma, for those who also noticed a bit back, also mentioned her recent revisiting of the Harry Potter series, where she said on her Twitter and to Elle that she watched one of the movies recently for nostalgic reasons. Quote:
“I put one of the Potter films on the other night,” she says. “And it was amazing to me that I had done all of that. I have to remind myself every now and then.”
A small preview image from Emma's photo shoot can be seen here; highlights may be found below. Sofia Coppola on Emma in The Bling Ring:
“She transformed into the part,” Coppola says. “She could switch back and forth between a posh British accent and a slutty Valley Girl, just like that. Oh, and I was really impressed by her hip-hop dancing.” Emma's take on the upcoming comedy, The End of the World:
“It was essentially a stand-up-comedy situation,” she says. “So for me, it was like landing on Mars. I was like, ‘I can’t do this, this is mad,’ but eventually I just kind of let go. I have no idea where I got half the stuff that came out of my mouth.” Emma teasing about Guillermo del Tor's Beauty and the Beast adaptation:
“He’s obsessed with the idea of creating worlds,” she says. “We’re even going to have this amazing language that we made up.” Elle: You’ve said that being famous makes you uncomfortable. How so?
Emma Watson: A I’m dealing with people’s projections of me. I don’t know when people look at me if they see a beautiful dress I wore on the red carpet, or all of the magic and hype of Harry Potter. They very rarely just see who I am, which is a normal, human 22-year-old girl. Have you had to fight for a part?
Emma: Not exactly. But after auditioning for Sofia [Coppola], I didn’t hear from her for a while. I thought, Oh my God, I really want this part, so I wrote her an e-mail being like, “Look, I know I’m not the obvious choice, I couldn’t be more unlike the girl you’d probably cast in this, and I appreciate that I have a lot of work to do, but I feel really passionate about this. Please, would you just consider me?” And I got an e-mail back saying, “You already got it.” Are there certain types of roles you particularly want to play?
Emma: Eventually I’d love to do something where I get to sing, even though it would be terrifying. Do you think you’re hitting your stride at a time when women’s roles are getting more diverse?
Emma: Definitely. That’s one of the reasons why it was such an honor to work with Sofia—she writes such complicated, interesting female roles. I think there’s a shift, thanks to movies like Bridesmaids and people like Lena Dunham and Emma Stone. There’s a space for female characters that are more than two-dimensional, an understanding that we can be lots of different things at once. We can be funny, we can be a little [messed]-up—it’s not just about being the martyr, the smart one or the dumb blond.
