About whether or not she wants to remain an actress (2006): "I really don't know. Daniel and Rupert seem so sure. I don't know. I wouldn't want "Harry Potter" to be the last thing I do. Nothing is ever going to be quite on the scale of this. I appreciate that. And also I've come into acting in such a funny way. Most people who want to act have to sit through hours of auditioning and work their way up, whereas I seemed to have come straight in at the top, having had no experience at all. That's quite a strange position to be in, but amazing at the same time because it has given me so many options and choices. I definitely would like to try other films to see what it's like. I'd really like to try some theater, actually, because I think I would really enjoy that immediate response from an audience. I love making people laugh. I love to perform, but there are so many things I love doing (pauses) Maybe that seems ungrateful. I have been given such an amazing opportunity, but I'll just have to go with the flow and see what happens."

Emma “Excited for Noah”

In her latest tweets, Emma appears to confirm her involvement in Darren Aronofsky’s Noah. She first retweeted a couple of tweets from Russell Crowe (cast as Noah), and then followed with a tweet of her own.

@russellcrowe – I haven’t been approached by anyone to play Rupert Murdoch. That’s just a beat up.I am off to build a boat.Will be gone for quite some time.

@russellcrowe – no sails, no engine, runs purely on faith…does it bug anyone else that Noah’s sons are named in the bible…but not his wife…#re-write

@EmWatson – Very very excited for Noah.

Emma will reportedly “play Ila, a young woman who develops a close relationship with Noah’s son, Shem”, played by Douglas Booth. Other cast includes Emma’s Perks co-star Logan Lerman as Noah’s son Ham, and Jennifer Connelly as Noah’s wife, Naameh.

Shooting begins this August in New York.

    So…you want to re write the bible so it suits YOU!

      The comment about a rewrite was from Russell Crowe. And no, I don’t think he is advocating re-writing the bible. I think that’s been done enough. But the character of Noah’s wife needs a name in the movie.
