About the outdoor sets in the Deathly Hallows (2009): "It was so nice to be outside, in the forest and out of the studio - running about. It was so much fun. Because it's such an emotional, heavy film, it was nice to get out and do some action stuff.Β They were very fun scenes to film. Being out of Hogwarts just makes it really different. It just gives the audience a whole different experience. I'm so excited to see it together."

Emma leaving the HP franchise? // 18 March 2007

Bad news guys. According to this article Emma did NOT sign for the next two Harry Potter movies and the WB confirmed it. Right now, we don’t know anything else, so stay tuned for any update.

Even if this is the end of an era, Emma has to know that we respect her decision and that we’ll support her no matter what. She doesn’t need to play Hermione for us to love her.

EDIT: OK, I’ve just been told by many people that “News of the World” isn’t exactly the most reliable source out there (I didn’t know it, because I just didn’t know “News of the World”, it doesn’t exist in France). So don’t panic, it may just be another silly rumor. Let’s wait for something official from the WB πŸ™‚

UPDATE: according to CBBC Newsround (which is quite more reliable than The Sun or News of the World), nothing is signed yet but a spokesperson for Warner Bros said: “We’re extremely confident that Emma will be back for films six and seven.”

So let’s just keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best πŸ™‚

    News of the world is probably the most un-reliable papers its a tabloid(For less educated people. they said them selves)so i would wait for Emma herself to confirmed it because they have made up story and pictures(Cough.. Iraq… cough)so they can make money so don't believe things from the press plus i believe in Emma and i know she will make the right choice for her but the films would look weird with a new Hermione so i hope she stays even if to just continue acting in the film

  2. emmafan4life says:

    wait, so is that article sayingthat emma will definately not do the next 2? πŸ˜• i know it may just be a rumor, but i'm still confused

  3. Adam says:

    Do you have a showbiz story or picture to sell? Call 0845 35 63300 or email 63300@notw.co.uk. Find out more. does that not tell you that the news of the world will print anything to make money

  4. Adam says:

    it was at the bottom of the artical (i wasn't posting a link delibrataly)

  5. KB Prez says:

    YES, The News of the World is total rubbish!!! javascript:insertext(':sad:','short') sad But Emma has always struck me as someone who goes her own way and that's what I find most appealing about her! So, it wouldn't surprise me if she did quit the HP films. But having said that, I would really miss seeing her as Hermione! Whether she goes or stays, I wish her ALL THE BEST!!!!!!

  6. Lynn says:

    Sure the news is all over the Internet, but they're all quoting the News Of The World article, and not all of them are definite. Mostly they say that she "reportedly" isn't signing on for the last two HP movies.

  7. Danielle says:

    πŸ™ πŸ˜₯ OMG This is horrible! I HOPE SO MUCH that its a rumour & I'm sorry news of the world & The sun, I wont belive it until I here from WB or one of Emma's people! & I honestly dont beleive that Rupert and Dan would stop texting her they are all really close, they'll stick with her no matter what-I hope! What ever happens I Beleive that the decisions emma makes are for her own good & she'll will always be my favouurite actress ever!!!!! danxxx

  8. Danielle says:

    πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ OMGOMG!!!! GO ONTO THE NEWSROUND WEBSITE & READ WHAT IT SAYS THERE! I QUOTE "A spokesperson for Warner Bros who make the films, told Newsround: "We're extremely confident that Emma will be back for films six and seven." I hope this is true!xxx

  13. Kat xx says:

    Adam: i totally agree with u! the news of the world are only writing stuff for the money!!

  14. Nimy says:

    I hope that it must be a bad rumour! There's no other Hermione than the Hermione played by Emma!! πŸ˜₯

  16. ronald says:

    Harry Potter actress Emma Watson is certain she will do the last two Potter movies, despite reports claiming she told film bosses she wanted to quit. A spokesperson for Warner Bros., who make the films, told Newsround: "We're extremely confident that Emma will be back for films six and seven." And while doing interviews for the fifth potter film Emma has said she's sure she will film all seven stories. Emma, who plays Hermione in the films, is set to sign her new contract soon. this one i found on cbbc newsround πŸ™‚

  17. EmmaWatsonhuh says:

    And if it would be ture the poor actress who will remplace her will be automatically criticized (P.S.: Is it normal I can't access to the Emma gallery or it's AGAIN πŸ˜₯ 😑 a problem with my PC ? )

  18. andrew the great says:

    If Emma is going to quit acting, what other career is she going to choose? πŸ˜• πŸ˜• πŸ˜• πŸ˜• Maybe she will go back and finish school, go to a university, and get a job, :wink:,you know, normal stuff πŸ˜‰

  19. andrew the great says:

    TO DOOK OR NEVE: Did you guys found out about the stalker, :wink:, I want to know if the Sun made that story up, or if it's true what they said. Thank you

  20. Louisa says:

    I just found another article saying Emma will quit from the New York Post. (New York, USA). If you read it, don't believe it. They got all their info from News of the World. and New York Post never gets anything right.couple years back they got the results of the presidential election wrong. I live in New York City and no one trusts the Post.

  21. Louisa says:

    and vote for Emma at CBBC. she's in second right now, behind Rupert.

  22. andrew the great says:

    Looks like Emma is starting to lose everything, for one moment, she was famous, now she's not so famous. πŸ˜•

  23. emma and dan 1#true and real fan says:

    Louisa: and where is the posicion of Daniel? Ronald: THANK U SO MUCH!!!u don't know how happy i'm now..ufff…. πŸ™‚ i want emma..i wanna still seing her on movies!!!

  24. emma and dan 1#true and real fan says:

    andrew the great: yeah, i want to know about that story too!!!please neve or dook give us some information PLEASE!!!!i need to know..how strange!!is she ok??????????i hope so..i'm worried!!and, andrew, what u mena losing famous!!???what makes u think like that???she is NOT losing famous!!1she is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  25. bella says:

    i couldn't enter the site for months..what's wrong??

  26. weasleywarrior says:

    πŸ™‚ Yes! I am so hopeful now, that Emma will be back for HBP and DH. It wouldn't make sense at this late date for her to be worried about being known as "the girl from HP" since that fact is now written in stone. That will always be with her. It's what she does in the future to branch out that will determine if she is known equally well for other roles. I believe she will be a great actress. ww πŸ™‚

  27. andrew the great says:

    TO Emma and dan 1#true and real fan: I don't mean to be rude or anything, but I know that fame doesn't last forever, and now, I'm not jeolous of Emma and her friends, in fact, I will support her always, and she will always be one of my favorite actors. πŸ˜‰

  28. hannah says:

    OMG ROFL that article from News of the World makes Emma look like some kind of bitch!!! πŸ˜† The whole thing is fake and I don't believe one single word in it

  29. emmafan1 says:

    omg i really hope she sighns!

  30. Chris says:

    Emma has always been the last one to sign up. But now she has her education to think about, among other things, and I'm sure during negotiations with WB, she will be wanting assurances that filming will work around her studies. Of course we will all be sad if she leaves, but it's her life, and we have to abide by whatever decision she makes. One thing's for sure, it won't be about money. πŸ˜› N.o.t.W. is another crappy tabloid, and until WB makes an official announcement, I wouldn't believe what they just printed. But we can expect it soon, as they are filming later in the year, and if she is leaving, they will have to get their skates on looking for a replacement.(Unless they've already started :wink:)

  31. Louisa says:

    Emma was at the Rock Challenge Dance Competition on March 16th. Headington won first place. Congrats Emma!

  32. Michelle says:

    :cry:I do NOT want Emma to leave! :cry:Harry Potter is impossible without her and no one plays Hermione brilliantly other than Emma.Please stay,Emma.

  33. karinaki says:

    THANK GOD!!oh yeah, she will sign!!! we will have her in the 6+7 movies!!!! yeah we will!! πŸ™‚

  34. mia says:

    o nein!!!!Warum soll Emma nicht mehr Hermine spielen??? Das w

  35. Louisa says:

    another article from hollywood.com reports that Emma is leaving but again, they quoted from news of the world. i'm sure Emma will stay. WB just needs to confirm it.

  36. Hiltje says:

    ooooo please!!!! i hope so, i hope so…

  37. Imene says:

    Good news , we have a hope that Emma will be on the two last Harry Potter ! I have to say that without Emma on the films it's not the same ! So let's hope , let's hope πŸ™‚ ! Kissssss everyone πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ !!!

  38. Keana says:

    At this point, I don't know what to believe about Emma signing onto the next two movies! I really love her as the role of Hermione, and probably wouldn't like the movies as much if she weren't in it. But which ever path she chooses, I support her either way!!!

  39. mairead hayes says:

    what!!!!!!! she cant stop bein hermione!!!!!!!!!!!! no one else can play her like she does!!!!!!! πŸ™ πŸ™ πŸ™

  40. big boss says:

    hey that means shes definitely coming back. cheer up guys

  41. x...Emmachiick...x says:

    Well, im glad that Emma hasn't exactly left yet. Of course i will support her in any film she does as she will portray every role she takes on as a good one. I do hope however that she does not quit as it would be strange to see someone else play her. :sad:Thanks πŸ™‚

  42. Delia says:

    You seeeeeeeeeee??? WHAT DID I TELL YOU GUYS? Honestly. Was it necessary to get everyone else all depressed around here? NO. But what did everyone insist on doing? FRET OVER NOTHING! And CRYING??? I TOLD YOU! Didn't I TELL YOU it was a RUUUUUUUUUUUUMOR? I even sang it! πŸ˜† Okay well, now you can all put your tissue boxes down. There, there my dears. *pats* Nothing to be upset over. It was SO OBVIOUS that there was something IFFY about those articles. HAHA. Wow. The WB sure acts super fast! πŸ˜› Good job, WB. Or else, some people might've been crying for DAYS! :/

  43. big boss says:

  44. Ahlam says:

    OMG….thats sooooo bad i think the film is bad if emma leave the film πŸ˜₯ πŸ˜₯ πŸ˜₯ πŸ˜₯ πŸ˜₯ πŸ˜₯ πŸ™ πŸ™

  45. Chris says:

    Delia: Emma has still not signed yet. WB just said they are confident she will.

  46. Sara says:

    Can anyone help? I want to make a music video about hermione, I have microsoft movie maker and a DVD drive, how do I import the movie into the movie maker program? ANY help would be great, and thank you so much.

  47. Colleen says:

    I believe the BBC a lot more than a silly tabloid, I am sure she will be back. I am not worried. πŸ™‚

  48. ♥sweetheart♥ says:

    colleen, i hope ur right!! i'm not really worried either though.

  49. Pablo from Mexico, City says:

  50. mair says:

    Don't listen to the rumours!!!!!! It's not true!! The News of the World is the most unreliable newspaper in Britain., They have got nothing better to do than make up stories!!!!!! They are doing it for attention!!
