Emma Watson

Emma Charlotte Duerre Watson was the daughter of British parents Jacqueline Luesby (a lawyer) and Chris Watson (a French mother). When she was five years old, she relocated to Oxfordshire where she attended Dragon School. As early as the age of six years old, Emma knew that she would like to become an actress and for a couple of years she was trained at the Oxford branch of Stagecoach Theatre Arts, a part-time theater school where she was taught singing, dancing and acting. At the age of 10 she was performing and played the lead in various Stagecoach productions as well as school productions. The casting process began in 1999 for Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone 2001 The film adaptation of J.K. Rowling's bestselling book. Emma was found by casting agents through her Oxford theatre teacher. After eight auditions David Heyman revealed to Emma and Rupert Grint (other applicants) that they were chosen to play Hermione Gringer, Harry Potter, and Ron Weasley. Emma's debut screen performance in cinema was in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001). The film broke records for opening day sales and weekend take-offs and was also the highest-grossing feature of 2001. The film was praised by critics as well as the performances of the young actors. The Daily Telegraph, a British newspaper that is widely published, described Emma's performance as "admirable." Emma received five awards later for her role in the film, among them the Young Artist Award, for Leading Young Actress In a Feature Film.
