EWO has been updated with some news about Emma’s rumored role  in Napolean and Betsy that we told you about on the 18th. Go check it out.

I said the other day that I would put up some guidelines on designing submissions for Watson Weekly. I still need to do that, but I thought I would give some basic information in case anyone wanted to start on something right away. If you don’t want to design the page(s) yourself, you can ignore this.

• The page size we will be using is the international standard A4 (210
  

As I’m sure you all already know, the last HP film Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be split into two parts.
Today, ComingSoon.net announced that the first part of Deathly Hallows will be released on November 19th 2010.

So far no word on when part 2 will be released, but it was said before that we can expect it in May 2011.

We will let you know as soon as we hear anything more!

And EWO was updated telling us about “Harry Potter: The Exhibition”. Go there to find out what it’s about! 😉

‘Ello!

Emma was named one of the most stylish teen stars on StyleList.com. The website comments:

“Harry Potter hottie Emma Watson’s eye for couture has made her a fashion force to be reckoned with at the tender age of 17. For the opening of the Vanity Fair exhibit at the London Portrait Gallery, she’s stunning in Burberry Prorsum.”

Her picture is #2 on the list.
Her Harry Potter co-star Daniel Radcliffe also made the list.

Congrats to them! 🙂

Update: As Tayna noted, we posted this back on 13 April. Oops! But some other sites are just getting around to posting it, so it’s kind of like new news again. 😛

There is also a small fee.Thanks to Naveed on the forums for the tip. Good luck, Emma!

EWO has also been updated with a new fan story and pictures from the Empire Awards.

Emma appeared on the ITV program Travels in Written Britain today, a new series about “how the places of Britain have influenced writers throughout history.” Emma read an excerpt from George Eliot’s great niece’s diary. We have a video her segment. It’s not the best quality, but it’s all I’ve seen so far. Thanks to Danielle for sending it in.

Update: We have high quality version now in the video archive. Credit to snoop at celebutopia.

There is news today from The Hollywood Reporter that Emma is attached to star in Napolean and Betsy after Scarlett Johansson dropped out. From the article: “Watson will play Betsy Balcombe, a young, impetuous noblewoman trapped on the isolated British Isle of St. Helena who falls in love with Napoleon, who is in exile on the island.” The period drama would likely begin shooting in the fall before Deathly Hallows starts in 2009. Thanks to everyone that let us know.

TV Alert
We have also heard that Emma will be appearing on the ITV program Travels in Written Britain, a new series that will look at “how the places of Britain have influenced writers throughout history.” Emma will read an excerpt from George Eliot’s great niece’s diary. Thanks to the Sassy forums via musicnote. source

The program will air on ITV1 on Sunday at 10.45pm. If anyone can send us a capture we would appreciate it. High quality is best.
