Emma Charlotte Duerre Watson[1] (born 15 April 1990) is an English actress who plays Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter film series.
Emma Watson is the elder of two children born to Chris and Jacqueline Watson, lawyers who are now divorced; she has a younger brother named Alex. She spent her formative years living in Paris, France, and Oxford, England. During her primary school years, Watson attended The Dragon School, a private preparatory school, until June 2003.
Prior to her role in the Harry Potter films, Watson's acting experience was limited, consisting only of minor roles in school plays, including Arthur: The Young Years and The Happy Prince. Other school activities included the Daisy Pratt Poetry Competition, in which, at aged seven, she won first place for her year.

Career

Watson was cast to play Hermione Granger at aged nine, and was eleven years old when filming began in 2001 when Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, titled Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in the United States, was released. She has since appeared in all subsequent Potter films: Chamber of Secrets (2002), Prisoner of Azkaban (2004), and Goblet of Fire (2005), and is currently filming Order of the Phoenix It is unknown whether Watson will again reprise her role as Hermione in the sixth Potter film, the Half Blood Prince, due to begin filming next year.

Potter fans have expressed mixed opinions about Watson's portrayal of Granger: Some feel she is perfect for the role; others believe Watson fails to capture Hermione's insecurities and flaws, and complain that she is too glamourous for the role[2]— one prominent film critic, Roger Ebert, said Watson was "in the early stages of babehood"[3]—since Granger, as presented by screenwriters, was considered "plain" (neither "pretty" nor "ugly") as chronicled by Rita Skeeter in her Daily Prophet gossip column. The films, however—with Rowling's approval—establish Hermione as a pretty girl past her bushy hair and bookish demeanor, as Harry and Ron discover at the Yule Ball in Goblet of Fire. The screenplays also present a somewhat different chemistry between the three central characters than do the books.

At age fifteen, Watson became the youngest person to appear on the cover of Teen Vogue magazine. She also served on a jury, along with Pierce Brosnan, Kenneth Branagh, and Samantha Morton, to select the 2004 teenaged filmmakers' "First Light" for the Film Award ceremony in Leicester Square in London.[4] She also played Hermione in The Queen's Handbag, a special mini-episode of Harry Potter in celebration of Queen Elizabeth II's 80th birthday.

By October 2006, Watson had not comitted to appearing in the Harry Potter film series beyond the fifth installment[4]; though the Potter films constitute her only professional acting experience, she has expressed interest in expanding her film career into other works. She has said this is unlikely to happen before the Harry Potter films are complete, though American shark-attack survivor Bethany Hamilton has mentioned Watson as the possible lead in a film version of Hamilton's life story.[5]
