About Gary Oldman (2004): "I have to say, at first, I genuinely didn't know who he was. And it is terrible, I know, it's horrendous and people would be "ooooh, that's terrible!". But Dan almost took my head off when I said I didn't know him. I was like "OK, I'm really sorry" and he was like "I can't believe!" (makes a very funny imitation). But working with him, even though I didn't know who he was... he is such a great actor. He truly is. He's so good. And I was so impressed. All of the Shrieking Shack stuff that we did with him, I was just so blown away, I almost forgot what I was saying, I was like "Oh yeah, that's my line" (laughs)."

Emma Reads Poetry for “The Love Book”

Just in time for Valentine’s Day Emma has recorded several poems for the latest update of The Love Book app. The Love Book, both an app and a paper book, are “compendiums of some of the greatest poems, love letters, quotes and prose ever written on the wonderful (but troublesome) theme of love.” In the app you can hear many of these read by Helena Bonham Carter, Tom Hiddleston, Damian Lewis, Helen McCrory, Gina Bellman and Emma.

The app is available on Google Play or iTunes. 10% of all sales will go to the charity Save the Children.

In the trailer below you can hear short clips of Emma reading from Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare and The Orange by Wendy Cope.

    She says “give me my Romeo” in a very unique way 🙂
    I could almost say she was a bit nervous!
