If I've learned anything, it's really just to stop trying to find answers and certainties.

Harry Potter's like Santa Clause: something you can't see but wish was real so badly that you end up believing in it.

Hermione uses all these big long tongue twister words. I don't know what she's going on about half the time!

Whenever I've gone against my instincts, it's been a bit of a disaster. If there's a script I'm considering, I will get everyone to read it. I will get my mom to read it, I will get my friends to read it, I'll get the person doing my manicure to read it. I'm someone who really needs to talk things through. And then, obviously, I have a wonderful manager and agents, and I listen very carefully to what they have to say as well.

Hermione is so close to who I am as a person that I've never really had to research a role. I'm literally rediscovering what it means to be an actress.

I just feel like if I start opening the door to talking about my university experience, then people just kind of... own everything. There was a lot of stuff a couple of years ago saying that I was bullied at Brown and awful things like that, none of which were true.

I don't know. I think there are fans out there who know that too and who wonder whether Ron would have really been able to make her happy.
