Emma Watson may not come back to the next “Harry Potter” movie.
Posted by Capri on September 24, 2006
“Harry Potter” might lose one of its stars. The fifth film in the series, “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,” is currently filming at Leavesden Studios north of London. Negotiations to lock in Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter), Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley) and Emma Watson (Hermione Granger) for the final two films are in the preliminary stages, and while the boys are likely to commit, Watson, 16, is unsure. “I don’t know yet,” she told NEWSWEEK near the set of 12 Grimmauld Place, secret headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix. “Every film is such a huge production, and it’s a long time.” Saying yes would mean she’d be playing the studious Hermione until she’s 20. Watson scored near- perfect grades on her national exams. College must be on her mind, not to mention a career, and she’s not sure acting is in the cards. “Daniel and Rupert seem so sure,” she says, and looks sincerely plagued that she isn’t. “I love to perform, but there are so many things I love doing.” Pause. “Maybe that sounds ungrateful. I’ve been given such an amazing opportunity, but I’ll just have to go with the flow.”. . . . . . .Source

Emma Watson said
Emma, it is such a coindidense taht we have the same name. Anyway, you cannot leave. Please. Without you the movies will be really bad. You are the only one who can the role of Hermione Granger perfectly. I hope you change your mind.
jenna said
Emma, please please please don’t leave hp! NO ONE can replace you and you have already done 4 ,so please just do the last 2. PPPPPPPPPLLLLLLEEEEEEEAAAAASSSSEEEE do the last 2 movies!
Jenna Sedran said
emma, you can’t leave the harry potter,i mean you already did the first 4 and if you go then people won’t really like the movies cause there’ll be so use to you that to see someone else in yuor spot, well for me i would think it was a different movie cause you, Daniel and Rupert are the hole movie, without you there wouldn’t be the great movies. I’m guessing you have a lot of people telling you to stay or maybe telling you to go so i’m saying do what ever you want
Taylor said
dear emma i think your making a big mistake there are alot of girls who would love to be in your shoes write now a specially me i am a big fan and i know you have more hobbies than acting but i think at some stage you will regret not doing it. Don’t throw this chance away not yet you have done a brilliant job in the previous 4 movies. Harry Potters biggest fan Taylor Anderson

I think Emma should come back the movies wont be the same with out her i may even not watch the next movie then….. it just wont be the sam this late in the series! i almost stoped when the orignal Dumbledor died!!! but i had to see the movie but this late in the series you get a new Hermione Grander NO WAY!!! it will be to diffrent i hope Emma Watson comes back!!!
Kuy said
Being a complete HP nutter books and movies, it will be sad and some what strange to see someone else in the role, however and this is a HUGE HOWEVER, i can understand why she may not come back. I’ve read in various interviews that she wishes to try new things, she films almost 11 months out of the year, it’s tough being so far from home and family.
what ever she deiceds i wish her all the luck.

Chug said
giving up is for babies and as far as i know you are so brave. keep on going.
Emma said
U ARE NO GOOD EMMA! My name is EMMA too, and people keep making fun of me by smiling at me with that weird smirk YOU do. and they treat me so mean. I AM NOOOT YOU! people make fun of me for things that YOU’ve done!
I HATE YOU! IT’S A SHAME THAT YOUR NAME IS EMMA! CHANGE YOUR NAME!
Jessica said
Hey, Emma above,
don’t be such a bitch! Just because there are some morons out there that bag you because of the sameness of yours and Emma Watson’s name doesn’t mean you have to attack the actress. If you have a major problem change YOUR name!
addie said
emma! omg stay your the only hermonie and the other movies will suck without u ion them, im telling u , u do such a great job playing hermonie and there are only 2 left anyways. PLZ STAY !!!

elizabeth said

nicki said
I think she should do the other Harry Potter movie’s because it wont be the same without her…. it would be totally different without her!!! I think it would sort of ruin it in a way! I think she sort of made a commitment to be in all the films, you wouldn’t star in a sequal if you wern’t gonna appear in all of them would you?
she needs to stay!

Watson was eleven years old when Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone—titled Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone in the United States—was released. She has since appeared in all subsequent Potter films: Chamber of Secrets (2002), Prisoner of Azkaban (2004), and Goblet of Fire (2005), and has finished filming Order of the Phoenix. Despite reports saying Watson refused to sign a contract to appear in the final two Potter installments, her committment to the final two films was confirmed in late March 2007 by Warner Brothers. At the time she said “I could never let Hermione go–she is my hero! I love her too much and love what playing her has meant to me. I am excited and honoured to be finishing what I started and playing her in all seven of the films.”[5] (Daniel Radcliffe’s involvement in the last two films had been confirmed earlier that month. [6])

Just to comment on the person (Emma) who said such mean things about Emma Watson just because her name is the same. How ridiculous of you!! My 10 year old daughter’s name is Emma (last name even starts with a “W”), and she is quite proud that her name is the same, and last name is quite similar as well. Her friends, who are all big HP fans, also thing it is ‘cool’ that her name is so close to Emma Watson’s name.
How silly this is, and I can’t believe I’m responding, just for some reason, I thought I would mention that it is a silly and unproductive thing to gripe about. If you are soooooooooo disgusted that your name is Emma as well, please do one of three things: First, take into account HOW MANY Emma’s there are, all over the world who are not posting such stupid things, being so rude to an actress because their first name is the same, and SECOND, and most importantly, if you have SUCH a problem with it, DON’T read the books OR see the movies, last, you could change your own friggin name!!! Maybe that will help you with your anger issues, which obviously DO need some help. Just some advice from the ‘older generation, mother of two, one of which is named Emma, a big HP fan who reads the books and sees the movies, and she is PROUD to have the same name as Emma Watson (even likes that her last name starts with a W as well).
My gosh, what a silly post that was, and by the way, had NOTHING to do with the subject at hand. As for our family, we hope, hope, hope, that Emma Watson decides to do the last two movies. I personally think she will. She’s having second thoughts right now, probably because it is at the time to commit phase, and she’s considering her options. When all is said and done, I think she will stick it out, and will be there to finish the series(:
Sorry for the long post!
Siowaj said
just because she acts well, doesn’t mean that she has to, she needs to think about her own life, not just the ppl that love her acting! Besides, when she grows old and nobody wants her acting anymore, where will she go? College would give her almost any job, and she could have more opportunities.
Rachael said
Hey Grl
What you decide to do is up to you. I hope (for my own selfish reasons!) that you will decide to stay and finish the series, but there is a life after harry potter. Either way, you shouldnt do something you will regret later in life.
Jordan said
I dont think u should leaave because u are a great part of harry potter and ur acting got me into acting so if u quit i will lose so much i would lose that power in me to keep acting and ur the one who got me into harry potter so keep going emma watson or i will quit EVERYTHING!!!!!!! That means watching harry potter an ACTING!!!!! Oh harmoine is my favorite chacter in the person that will replace u would be stupid!!! I WILL MISS U IF U DO LEAVE!!!!!!!
Jordan said

linda said
ok well as we can all see that not all people that read up on things in this world…well they’re just not mature!!! anyways…ur a very blessed young lady and whatever u decide to do will be for the best!! i know that no one could replace u…but i also know that u must be tired!! u along with rupert and daniel make these movies GREAT and no one could do a better job!!! hope u decide to stay!!
emma rox said
umm u people are all perverted all men? serously?
Emily said
i love harry potter and it would be a shame if Emma Leaves. The movies would not be the same at all. She is a great actress and no one could replace her. The movies would pretty much suck with out you. Does Emma Watson even read this? lol.
marymoe said
that’s stupid… she can still study at any age she wants.. right now she should focus on her career. College can wait but her acting career is at its peak right now.. (wc means more money to invest for studying later,,) please emily dont do the wrong move.. Who knows if she’s still be offered projects after the harry potter shiznit.. whatever
Mason Gilbert said

Ruth said
I think she should give the performance to the last two harry potter movies, because she is lovely to see there, she is a great actor so she should come back. I wish
sniff said

Emma cannot go because nobody can replace her because she is the best Hermione Granger and she fits in so well in the movie.
harry p fan said
It just wouldn’t be the same without Emma watson playing as hermionie , every time that I think about the harry potter movies and even every time i read the books i think of hermionie granger and i think of her it would just be so different without her and also if i had that offer i would take it in a secound but i also agree with her idea of going back to school . Oh and in the seventh movie everything ends but she also gets to actually gets to kiss Rupert Grint (he is so cute ). Also i would kill to be in atleast one of the last two movies or even both with her , Rupert , and Daniel sense i saw the very first movie of harry potter and just to say it is not just Daniel who makes the movie it is Rupert and Emma to they are all my ISDOLES.

She shouldn’t leave! Emma, if you’re reading this, I just want to let you know that you can’t be replaced! You are the best! If you quit, that would ruin the whole movie series! I am a BIG fan of Harry Potter and you are my favourite character! Hermione should be the star of the show! And Hermione isn’t Harry’s girlfriend! She gets married with Ron at the end! The last thing I want to say is…. GO GET THEM GIRL!
Anna said
EMMMA! EMMA! EMMA! EMMA!
I am Harry’s number 1# fan! You cant just quit! You are , like totally cool and you make the movie ssưưppper awesome! Hermione is my favourite character and she rocks the wizarding world!( and ours!) You make me feel so comfortable when I’m watching the movie! PLEASE DON’T QUIT! Remember…. GO GET THEM GIRL!
Anna said
Emma! I would like to be in one of the last movies with you cause its been my dream since I was 4! We love you! You are the best! You can so not go cause you are my 1# favourite celebrity! I hope you read this!
So… GO GET THEM GIRL!
JK Rowling said
Please Emma! Don’t leave! You are an important character to my books and I don’t want you to leave! You will ruin the story. Daniel and Rupert need you. Hermione fits in you as the character. Ron and Harry won’t be the same without you.
Bradley Carpenter said
Since the first Harry Potter movie came out i thought she was great in it. I don’t think she should leave until they have finshed with the last two movie’s but its up to the young girl to decided what she wants to do
