Emma Watson will be the cover feature for the next issue of Elle US. A preview of the cover and several photos and quotes from the article have been released. The April issue hits newsstands March 25.
Emma Watson on the importance of having a life outside of her acting career: “I remember reading this thing that Elizabeth Taylor wrote. She had her first kiss in character. On a movie set. It really struck me. I don’t know how or why, but I had this sense that if I wasn’t really careful, that could be me: that my first kiss could be in somebody else’s clothes. And my experiences could all belong to someone else.”
On Noah, Darren Aronofsky’s $125 million dollar blockbuster, and what it was like playing Noah’s adopted daughter, Ila: “It’s Shakespearean, what happens to this family when they’re put in this confined space for 40 days and 40 nights. It’s the end of the world—how these different human beings are dealing with the impact of that. Are humans good? Are we bad? All of these themes are epic.”
Darren Aronofsky on Emma’s steely nerve while filming Noah: “We started off with one of Emma’s hardest scenes. We shot in Iceland on a beach with an extremely difficult weather situation. The force of the wind—we could barely hear the actors. The sun kept coming in and out. We had to wait for the right light, then, Go, go, go! Then, Wait, wait, wait! She was able to block out all those ridiculous external forces and just focus on the emotion at hand.”
Emma Watson on coming of age in the public eye: “There are all these actresses who have emerged in the last year or two, and they get to emerge as this complete human being. And I’m so jealous!”
Ohhhhh those eyes! Much power comes with that much beauty. Lucky thing that she’s such a kind-hearted person.
Omg! I have a love/hate relationship with her!! I love her, but I envy her so much! She’s too perfect… I have been told a lot of times, that I look like her, but PLEASE, nobody looks like THAT!
Wow, that must be awesome, to be told that you look like her!! Lucky girl!!
Sarah, I get told that I look like Russel Crowe. I don’t see it either, but I get the comparison a lot. Too bad we can’t act as paparazzi decoys so the real stars can have some privacy, eh? 🙂
Hahaha, we could join forces right now that Noah is in the public eye! 😉
You’re right. They need us, damn it! Why don’t they call?!? 😉
Great for Emma but bad styling
on the cover, I mean
I know, any other picture from the shoot is better than the one of the cover, but still she’s lovely.
I love the photos, she’s looking hot! She’s my girl crush. My cousin looks like her.
Your cousin is a lucky girl too!
My favorite picture is the one where her hands to her mouth. As for the cover picture, she kinda looks like a guy.
