It seems that Kristen Stewart is not the only one who has turned into a full-fledged adult recently. Harry Potter star Emma Watson celebrated her 21st birthday on 15 April 2011, a week after the Twilight heroine.
Surprisingly, Emma Watson has revealed that, at one point, she considered giving it all up to have normalcy in her life, i.e. she seriously thought of not renewing her Harry Potter contract.
As the years went on Watson became increasingly conflicted about whether she wanted to keep playing the role [of Hermione Granger], or to even act at all. “Dan and Rupert seem so sure,” she said on the set of the fifth film, The Order of the Phoenix. “I love to make people laugh, and I love being creative, but there are so many other things I love doing, too. I’ve been given such amazing opportunities with this, but … I don’t know.”
This summer [of 2010], Emma Watson had finished shooting Hallows and was headed back to school for her sophomore year at Brown University. She’d just gotten a new pixie haircut — the first time in 10 years she’d been able to choose her own hairstyle — and was elated by her life on campus. “I have such a structure when I’m working on Potter,” she said. “I get told what time I get picked up. I get told what time I can eat, when I have time to go to the bathroom. Being at college, I took pleasure in the smallest things. Like, ‘I’m going to wake up at 10 o’clock if I want to.’ Or, ‘I’m going to eat a sandwich now.’ It feels wonderful.”
