you remind me of Audrey Hepburn oh my
goodness Leighton : thank you by all the
outpouring of excitement about your new
haircut it's been pretty crazy I wasn't
really anticipating so much stronger
about it but it's I mean it's great I'm
loving it as we countdown to the opening
of the movie Harry Potter and the
Sorcerer's Stone we want to introduce
you to two new actors Rupert Grint and
Emma Watson good morning nice to see you
all how exhausted are you I mean you've
had pretty much of a whirlwind well gosh
a whirlwind year but the past couple
weeks have been really crazy what have
you guys been up to
um we still have premiere on Sunday yeah
that's right yeah oh yeah it was really
you know I I actually talked to Dan
Radcliffe he plays Harry in the movie
about that I said we're and he said he
was nervous what was it what what made
you nervous about that premiered is
there we need people um I mean oh the
press the people that were going cameras
flashing it was just scary in your very
objective way I'm sure you won't be but
tell me what you think of the film was
it when you saw the movie put together
was it what you expected it would be
exactly I feel like they've kind of
dislike taking these in my mind out from
the book and just used it on the film
because it's exactly as I imagined it I
mean I I suppose every actress formate
late to see themselves on screen they're
like oh they cut out my best lines or
Iook so bad in that scene you know oh my
hell it's disastrous if I think everyone
says that so I'm very soft pressure but
all together I just love the fellas it's
amazing Emma Watson was only 10 when she
was cast as the bookish Hermione Granger
and out the ripe old age of 15 like her
character she is growing up you know my
daughter told me the other day when they
started reading the Harry Potter books
at her school all the girls thought your
name was her me one I know different
interpretations like honey honey one but
now I guess now I guess because of the
movie everyone
knows how to say her name and Hermoine
like Emma Watson is growing up and I
think this movie reflects that don't you
because she's dealing with all sorts of
teenage issues that are very very
relatable yeah oh she definitely is you
know there's um this is the first film
book with the introduction of romance
colotti age angst you've the boys and
the girls are gonna find dates for the
Yule Ball and yeah you've been doing
this for the past five years are you
sick of it at all yeah my me do you feel
like gee I want to try something else or
gosh I'd like to be a normal teenage
girl for a little while well I'm in
between in between the films I always
have a break I go back to school and I'm
and do the kind of normal school girl
bet for a for a while which is nice and
I start the fifth one in February and
then after that and we'll see I
definitely wouldn't want it to be the
last thing I do I'm looking around and
remind me of Audrey Hepburn oh my
goodness and Kopelman Thank You
sessional surprised by all the others
the outpouring of excitement about your
new haircut
um it's been pretty crazy I wasn't
really anticipating so much drama about
it but it's I mean it's great I'm
nothing in why did you decide to do it
because it I just I had the same hair
for ten years and I really felt like my
hat
was so Stacy stood with that role and
when I finished I just needed something
new and to start fresh and students
change almost a catharsis right it's
like my Indian in with the know Emma
exactly it felt very symbolic they're
kind of sharing and like the casting
away of everything yeah I mean this is
this must have been just an emotional
sort of end for such a wonderful series
I can't imagine what that list last day
must have been like for you it was it
was very emotional it was very emotional
lots of tears but you know I'm just I'm
very excited to see what the future has
in store for me Rupert was here was it
yesterday yeah he was saying the same
thing you know we forget that 10 years
you were pretty much non-stop working on
those films exactly so it's
nice - nice to have a breather and yeah
can you actually be a regular college
student at Brown or is it that's the
most amazing thing about Brown and why I
just I absolutely love being there I
love my classes I love the professor I
love the students in history but you
know and also they're so respectful of
my privacy and I really have a very
normal existence there and I'm very
grateful for that do you think your life
after college will include a lot more
acting or do you plan on going down a
different path well I'm trying to fit in
you know acting around my school
schedule but school definitely comes
first for the moment and then post post
poster and post school I definitely want
to keep making movies but I just do want
to limit myself there's so many
different things I'm interested in I
just I want to I want to try everything
we've had so many people sitting in this
in this chair and they you seem so
Unchained you see so unaffected by all
those years of sort of being a big star
what do you think has kept you grounded
well I have an amazing family and I have
really wonderful friends and it just
makes it makes a difference and people
who around me who are very honest you
know and I just love what I do and I'm
so grateful and I'm still so excited to
be part of it all
you
