Emma Watson

Emma Charlotte Duerre Watson was born on April 15, 1990 in Paris, France.  Her catchy nickname is Em, which is a completely normal nickname for a name like 'Emma'.  Anyways, her parents were lawyers.  When she was five her parents divorced, and then she moved, along with her mother and younger brother, Alexander, to Oxfordshire, England.  Ever since her parents divorced her family as you would say has "extended"; her parents have new partners.  Her father has a son named Toby, and identical twin daughters named Nina and Lucy, and her mother's partner has two sons.  She spent most of her childhood living in England with her mother and stepfather, younger brother, and two stepbrothers.  Anyways, when she was at the age fo six, she just knew that she wanted to become an actress.  Now let's get into that!

For a while she trained at the Oxford branch of Stagecoach Theatre Arts, where she studied singing, dancing and acting; and by the age of ten, she had been in various Stagecoach productions and school plays taking the lead role in "Arthur: The Young Years" and "The Happy Prince".  And this is where it gets exciting!  In 1999, the official casting began for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, which came to theaters in 2001 I believe, and from the brilliant mind of J.K. Rowling who wrote the series, of course before the films.  Which we all know of course that Emma took the leading female role of Hermione Granger, but the question is how...here's how.  There were casting agents that found Emma through her Oxford theatre teacher...I bet Emma thanker her teacher for this wonderful opportunity.  Anyways, their were eight constant auditions, and the producer, David Heyman, told Emma and the fellow auditioners...you know who they are...that they'd been cast for the roles of the three leads, Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe), Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint), and of course Hermione Granger (Emma Watson).

Ever since the release of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone came to theaters in 2001, that was Emma's major cinematic screen debut.  Now she is the most well-known actress in the world!  She continued to play Hermione Granger for nearly 10 years...obviously because you just cannot, and I mean cannot replace Emma Watson to play Hermione Granger...she was Hermione Granger in: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001), Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002), Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004), Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005), Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007), Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009), Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (2010), and finally Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (2011).

When I saw the first movie for the first time...I just couldn't believe it, I thought it was absolutely amazing!  And I just can't believe that we saw them grow up from little kids, to young adults!
When I saw the last film...I was dying inside because it was, epic, mysterious, magical for one thing, sad, and so many other emotions!  I sort of got to see these people grow up, even though I was so much younger than before, but yeah you get the idea.  Anyways, guess who else cried at the Harry Potter Deathly Hallows: Part 2 premiere...pretty much everyone who was in the cast...including J.K. Rowling!  Ever since the ending of Harry Potter, Emma Watson began to start other films, with My Week with Marilyn (2011), The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012), which I heard was amazing!  Then her recent films The Bling Ring (2013) and Noah (2014)...which I hope they got the facts right from the Noah's Ark story, because if they didn't, I'll be very upset!  Anyways, it was very sad to see these lovely people go.

And that's all I have on her, please comment if you're confused on something, or if I missed anything, or anything like that, just please, please comment if you guys need anything.  So hope you liked it and see you later!
