We posted the first still and behind-the-scenes photos from Perks of Being a Wallflower a week ago, but now they are out in HQ and I think they deserve another look.

WB’s site Harry Pottter: The Quest has released a new video as a teaser for the release of the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 blu-ray and dvd coming up soon. In this clip from “The Women of Harry Potter”, Jo Rowling and Emma Watson talk about the casting of Emma for the role of Hermione.

Emma Watson covered the July issue of 8 Days magazine from Singapore. Unseen images from Emma’s shoot with Mariano Vivanco accompanied the interview. Scans courtesy of youmustbemrweasely.

We now have scans of the text from Elle Canada and Elle UK November issues, thanks to IHW.

In a new interview with the Post Gazette, Emma Watson talks about Perks of Being a Wallflower, her anxieties about the role, hanging out with the other cast members off set, and doing her own stuntwork for a key scene in the movie which she calls “one of the best moments of my life”. Along with the interview is another new promo shot from the film released by Summit Entertainment.

In case you were a little bleary eyed over your Breakfast Smile platter, that really was Emma Watson at the Eat’n Park, winding down after a long day of filming.

It was one of her haunts — along with the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Bethel Park, which she called home — for part of the spring and summer while filming “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” in Pittsburgh.

“The shooting schedule’s been kind of crazy. It’s such a great group of people, and we all got so close that we mainly just hang out at the Crowne Plaza — I’m serious — and we play music,” she said in late June in Peters Township.

“Pretty much everyone that’s part of the cast is musically talented in some way, so we spent most of our evenings playing music and just talking and just being silly. I’ve been to Eat’n Park a few times. A bunch of times, actually.”

She would usually go after filming when it was late and the place was quiet. “I haven’t had too much time to do anything but everyone’s been so friendly,” she said.

New MQ outtakes from Emma Watson’s photoshoot for Marie Claire last year are now online. Emma was photographed for the cover of last December’s issue by Tesh.

Sorry, images removed.

The first trailer for My Week With Marilyn is now out on Yahoo Movies!. Emma’s part in the film is small, but we do get a couple quick scenes in the trailer with Emma, at about 1:08 and 1:42.

In an interview with the NY Times, Emma Watson talks about how she prepared for her role in Perks of Being a Wallflower and how much she enjoyed the experience. We also get our first still from the movie showing Emma as her character Sam, along with Logan Lerman who plays Charlie. Another photo shows Emma, Logan and Stephen Chbosky on the set.

NOBODY ever got through high school without being a little aimless and more than a little dramatic. Not so long ago Emma Watson discovered that for herself.

Ms. Watson was in this leafy suburb of Pittsburgh, a 30-minute drive from the glass-and-steel downtown, filming a movie that’s set at Peters Township High School. Every day she arrived at the sprawling campus, with its swim team and banners promoting reading, to experience the youthful rites that, as the Oxfordshire-bred star of the “Harry Potter” franchise from age 10 to 20, had otherwise eluded her.

“Oh my goodness, so many firsts,” she said, speaking in an excited rush during a break from filming. “I did the prom! We all get dressed up and we go in a limo, and get photographs. It’s been really fun for me to get to graduate. Eating in the school canteen; all these things that I’ve always sort of said to my American friends, ‘Oh, that looks amazing, that looks so fun, I’m jealous.’ And I get to do it for this movie.”

The film, an adaptation of the young-adult novel “The Perks of Being a Wallflower,” a beloved coming-of-age tale published in 1999, will be the next starring role for Ms. Watson, 21, and practically her first that doesn’t involve a cast of wizards and trolls. Though she earned legions of young fans as the plucky Hermione Granger in the “Harry Potter” series (and as the fashion-forward face of several luxury brands), Ms. Watson has never played a regular girl, let alone a suburban American.

Set loosely in the pre-Internet age of the early ’90s, “The Perks of Being a Wallflower,” which is due in theaters next year, is the closest Ms. Watson has come to playing a contemporary character not too far removed from herself, she said. It’s not a grown-up role, but carrying the film — helping get it made at all — is a newfound adult responsibility.
