About how people react to her fame (2007):"I've had people be funny with me, but never seriously nasty. More like people not knowing how to act around me and it coming off in an unfriendly way. But I don't tend to confront people, I just hope the longer they're around me, the more they see how much I'm like everyone else, and the awkward feeling will go."

New Interview and Another Perks Promo Shot

In a new interview with the Post Gazette, Emma Watson talks about Perks of Being a Wallflower, her anxieties about the role, hanging out with the other cast members off set, and doing her own stuntwork for a key scene in the movie which she calls “one of the best moments of my life”. Along with the interview is another new promo shot from the film released by Summit Entertainment.

In case you were a little bleary eyed over your Breakfast Smile platter, that really was Emma Watson at the Eat’n Park, winding down after a long day of filming.

It was one of her haunts — along with the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Bethel Park, which she called home — for part of the spring and summer while filming “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” in Pittsburgh.

“The shooting schedule’s been kind of crazy. It’s such a great group of people, and we all got so close that we mainly just hang out at the Crowne Plaza — I’m serious — and we play music,” she said in late June in Peters Township.

“Pretty much everyone that’s part of the cast is musically talented in some way, so we spent most of our evenings playing music and just talking and just being silly. I’ve been to Eat’n Park a few times. A bunch of times, actually.”

She would usually go after filming when it was late and the place was quiet. “I haven’t had too much time to do anything but everyone’s been so friendly,” she said.

First Promotional Still from Perks

In an interview with the NY Times, Emma Watson talks about how she prepared for her role in Perks of Being a Wallflower and how much she enjoyed the experience. We also get our first still from the movie showing Emma as her character Sam, along with Logan Lerman who plays Charlie. Another photo shows Emma, Logan and Stephen Chbosky on the set.

 

From Wizards to Wallflowers in the Suburbs

NOBODY ever got through high school without being a little aimless and more than a little dramatic. Not so long ago Emma Watson discovered that for herself.

Ms. Watson was in this leafy suburb of Pittsburgh, a 30-minute drive from the glass-and-steel downtown, filming a movie that’s set at Peters Township High School. Every day she arrived at the sprawling campus, with its swim team and banners promoting reading, to experience the youthful rites that, as the Oxfordshire-bred star of the “Harry Potter” franchise from age 10 to 20, had otherwise eluded her.

“Oh my goodness, so many firsts,” she said, speaking in an excited rush during a break from filming. “I did the prom! We all get dressed up and we go in a limo, and get photographs. It’s been really fun for me to get to graduate. Eating in the school canteen; all these things that I’ve always sort of said to my American friends, ‘Oh, that looks amazing, that looks so fun, I’m jealous.’ And I get to do it for this movie.”

The film, an adaptation of the young-adult novel “The Perks of Being a Wallflower,” a beloved coming-of-age tale published in 1999, will be the next starring role for Ms. Watson, 21, and practically her first that doesn’t involve a cast of wizards and trolls. Though she earned legions of young fans as the plucky Hermione Granger in the “Harry Potter” series (and as the fashion-forward face of several luxury brands), Ms. Watson has never played a regular girl, let alone a suburban American.

Set loosely in the pre-Internet age of the early ’90s, “The Perks of Being a Wallflower,” which is due in theaters next year, is the closest Ms. Watson has come to playing a contemporary character not too far removed from herself, she said. It’s not a grown-up role, but carrying the film — helping get it made at all — is a newfound adult responsibility.

First Look at Emma in Perks

A first look at Emma Watson from the set of Perks of Being a Wallflower was released today, with scenes of Emma and Ezra Miller dancing up a storm. Josh Horowitz interviewed Emma, Ezra, Logan Lerman and Nina Dobrev for MTV.

You need the Flash to see this video.


The post-“Harry Potter” education of Emma Watson began, in a way, at Brown University. Searching for her first film after completing the boy-wizard franchise, the Ivy League actress found some unlikely career advisors in the form of her fellow college students, who told her that she simply had to sign up for “The Perks of Being a Wallflower,” an adaptation of Stephen Chbosky’s seminal novel.

“Honestly, I had never read the book before, but a lot of my friends at Brown were hugely into it, and when I told them I had this script, they were crazy excited,” Watson told MTV News.

And just that like, through the pop-culture schooling of her peers, she’d found a flick to carry her away from Hogwarts and toward a Hollywood second act. It’s fitting, then, that with “Perks” on her résumé, we’ve selected Watson as a member of MTV News’ New Class — actors and actresses about to graduate toward greatness. The 21-year-old finds herself in good company on the movie, whose cast contains so many soon-to-break-big talents that we selected a bunch of her co-stars as her New Class cohorts.

We’ve dubbed Watson “Most Likely to Win an Oscar.” Nina Dobrev (“The Vampire Diaries”) is our Next Style Icon. Logan Lerman (“Percy Jackson & the Olympians” and the upcoming “Three Musketeers”) is Most Likely to Make You Swoon, and Ezra Miller (Sundance eye-opener “Another Happy Day” and Cannes selectee “We Need to Talk About Kevin”) is Most Likely to Win an Independent Spirit Award. Together they’re bringing a beloved teen novel to the screen. And when we visited the film’s Pittsburgh set earlier this year, all four of them were well aware of the expectations surrounding the project and professed themselves lucky to be involved.

“I feel incredible about it. I feel like I’ve been waiting for ‘Perks,’ ” Watson said. “I was waiting for this story, for this script, for this moment, for these people to do it with me. I’m so glad I didn’t do anything that I didn’t care about.”
