At the age of nine, Emma got locked into the roll of Hermione Granger. And despite her displeasure, she renewed her contract with Warner Brothers in 2006 while shooting the fifth installment, The Order Of The Phoenix.
The 20-year-old Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows actress, who is now also a student at Brown University in Providence, R.I., admits that there are still other activities she’d rather do besides act. She loves being able to go to college and blend in like a normal girl.
