About the outdoor sets in the Deathly Hallows (2009): "It was so nice to be outside, in the forest and out of the studio - running about. It was so much fun. Because it's such an emotional, heavy film, it was nice to get out and do some action stuff.Β They were very fun scenes to film. Being out of Hogwarts just makes it really different. It just gives the audience a whole different experience. I'm so excited to see it together."

Hermione Granger comes back on screens …
Yes, since Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, come out in July 2007, people got impatient to see Hermione again. Two years later, she comes back in cinemas for new adventures. In addition, we are filming since February the ultimate episode of the saga, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. This last chapter will be in two parts, one for 2010 and the other for 2011. It’s crazy, for the first time I feel a pressure on my shoulders. Because I get ready to say goodbye to my character, and I don’t want to disappoint fans !

How do you live the end of the saga Harry Potter ?
What I’ll say might surprise some people, but I tackle the end of the adventure with impartiality. Of course, I have a chance to have had this experience in my adolescence. But, after 8 years, I have other projects. I want to change, to discover myself through other differents roles.

Propositions might already pour in …
For now, I’ve just a certainty : I go to Uni in september ! I need to devote time for my studies, in attending English class and Philosophy. After having hesitating a long time between England and the USA, I hope I’ll attend the American university of Brown, in Rhode Island state. If it works, I’ll follow my acting career in parallel. I’ll never leave my biggest passion.

So you don’t stop acting …
No ! If all is working well, I’ll act next autumn, an independant film called Napoleon and Betsy realised by Benjamin Ross. I’ll play the Betsy Balcombe’s role, the heroine, which at the origin have to be played by scarlett Johansson, who is a producter too. Besty is a young noble with enthusiastic disposition. Accidentally, she find herself on the Britain Island of Sainte-H
