Emma Watson is known to a large number of people. Fans of the famous Harry Potter saga know exactly who this girl is. In addition, Emma is not only a talented actress, but also a popular fashion model.
Childhood and adolescence
Emma Charlotte Duerr Watson was born in France in 1990. Her family did not have a craving for creativity. Both of her parents were from England and worked as lawyers.
In 1995, Emma's family returned to their home country. However, her parents soon separated. The future famous actress stayed with her mother's younger brother.
Emma showed her creative inclinations already at school, where in a short time she managed to play in three performances. At the age of 9, on the advice of her boss, Emma participated in the casting for the role of Hermione in the famous film adaptation of the Harry Potter books. Emma won, and a significant part of her life was now associated with this work.
But the young actress did not forget about education either. For several years she managed to graduate from the Headington School for Girls and the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London, and in 2014 she successfully completed her studies at one of the most prestigious private universities in the United States - Brown University.
Career
Emma Watson made her debut as an actress in the role of Hermione Granger in the famous Harry Potter saga. For her first role, Emma received four nominations at once in various premium directions, as well as her first award for the best young actress of the YoungArtist Awards. Many critics praised the performance of the actress in the first film of the saga, and the news site IGN wrote that the young Emma "eclipsed everyone."
The success of the actress in the subsequent parts of the Harry Potter saga was no less excellent. For the entire time of her participation in the filming (from 1999 to 2010) and even after filming, Emma Watson received a staggering number of awards:
- many awards for the entire period from OttoAwards - two gold, two silver and one bronze;
- in 2004 - an award from TotalFilm for the best child role;
- 2007 - awards from ITV National Film Awards and UK Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards;
- in 2008 - awards from the Constellation Awards and the SyFy Genre Awards;
- 2011 - three awards from Teen Choice Awards;
- in 2012, the MTV Movie Awards for Best Ensemble cast, along with the other main actors in the saga.
In addition to awards, the young actress, as part of her participation in the Potterian, was nominated for various award programs in different directions. For example:
- In 2002, she received two similar nominations at once - "EmpireAward: Debut of the Year" and "Breakthrough of the Year: Actress" from AmericanMoviegoerAwards.
- From 2004 to 2012, Emma was nominated for various awards for Best Actress.
Although most of Emma's life was associated with "Harry Potter", even during the filming of the saga, the girl managed to participate in other projects.
So, in 2007 she starred in the film adaptation of the novel "Ballet Shoes", where she played one of the main characters. For this role, the actress was also nominated for the award from GlamorAwards as the best television actress in the UK.
After the end of the filming of the Potter, Emma Watson immediately took up a new business. Already in 2012, a new film was released with the participation of the actress, after which she was awarded the award for Best Supporting Actress.
After 2012, seven more films were released with the participation of Emma Watson. The most famous of these are Noah and Beauty and the Beast. In the period from 2012 to 2018, the talented girl was nominated 6 more times in different directions.
However, in 2018, Emma received a Golden Raspberry Award nomination, which, on the contrary, is awarded for the worst acting. But this fact is covered by the fact that Emma received the Teen Choice Awards in 2017, which is awarded in connection with the greatest achievements in music, cinema, etc. Perhaps Emma's nomination for the Golden Raspberry was due to the failure of the film itself, which was perceived negatively by film critics and received only 17% of positive reviews.
Personal life
According to Emma's confession, her first love was the filming partner Tom Felton in Harry Potter, who was assigned the role of Draco Malfoy in the saga.
In 2011, the girl entered into her first relationship with a graduate student at Oxford University, which lasted only two years. Later, in 2014, Emma began dating a well-known British rugby player Matthew Jenny. However, after a while, Emma and Matthew broke up by mutual agreement due to the girl's too busy schedule.
Since 2015, the actress has dated computer technologist William Knight. However, this relationship did not last so long - only two years.
At the moment, the girl's young man is the American actor Cord Paul Overstreet.
Kord made his debut as an actor relatively recently. In 2009, he appeared as Josh Hollis in the Private School web project. Basically, the actor plays in television series, the most popular of which is "Chorus", in which he joined filming in 2010.
Fashion model career
Emma Watson has been interested in fashion since 2005. Her modeling career began with filming for Teen Vogue magazine, where she was on the front page in 2005.
The girl has been the face of seasonal collections more than once, and has also signed a contract with the ethical clothing brand People Tree.
Even in the modeling business, awards have not spared Emma. In 2011, British fashion designer Vivienne Westwood presented the girl with the Style Icon award.
