Key actress of the 2000s, Emma Watson had voluntarily distanced herself from cinema a few years ago to focus on herself. Today, she seems more appeased than ever and explains her relationship with the 7th art which has made her known worldwide.
Since 2019, the public has not had the opportunity to see Emma Watson on the big screen. After a dazzling success in the 2000s with her role of Hermione Granger in Harry Potter’s franchise, then some filming alongside her studies, the actress had decided to move away from cinema, as if tired of the rhythm and system of this industry.
“Happier and healthier than ever”
If her fans are eagerly awaiting his return, they can rejoice in one thing: Emma Watson is ‘happier and healthier than ever’. In an interview granted to Hollywood Authentic and published on Sunday, September 21, the 35-year-old actress claims to be reaping the benefits of her film break to focus on her personal development.
“The most important thing, in reality – or the foundation of your life – is your home, friends and family. I believe that I have worked so hard for so long that my life has kind of bottomed out. […] The bottom collapsed, that is, me and my life. So I needed to build a solid foundation for everything else. Because without it, a kind of mania sets in; a kind of panic where one moves from one project to another, terrified by the void that separates them. We realize that we no longer have a rhythm. […] Giving up all these multiple identities has freed me an enormous amount of space… to be a better sister, daughter, friend, granddaughter, and then artist”.
Passionate about theatre since her early childhood in the 90s, the one who had studied acting, singing and dance at the Stagecoach Theatre Arts school in Oxford, enjoyed a meteoric success with her role in the film adaptation of JK Rowling’s children’s book series, Harry Potter. The actress is revealed to the world in her interpretation of Hermione Granger, the best friend of Harry Potter and Ron Weasley. She is one of the headliners of the series of eight films from 11 to 21 years old and, like many child stars, gets lost in this dazzling and destructive notoriety. “Carrying the weight of a public figure” to such a young age is disturbing and a real burden for the young woman.
