Revealed in the cinema for her role as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter saga, Emma Watson is now moving away from film sets for a new project: the creation of a gin “made in France” with her brother Alex.
Voilà a business where we did not expect it. In 1999, when her acting experience was limited to a few school plays, Emma Watson was chosen to play Hermione Granger, an intelligent young witch from a Muggle family in one of the most profitable sagas. all time, Harry Potter. A role that the young actress holds for more than ten years, before taking a brief break to devote herself fully to her studies, which she follows at Brown University, in the United States. Because if Emma Watson has had comedy in her skin since she was very young, her career is not limited only to that which she leads to the cinema, while she refused a role which could have earned her an Oscar.
An unexpected project for Emma Watson
United Nations Goodwill Ambassador, model and perfume muse Paradox of Prada, for which she also advertised, she stands out as a real jack-of-all-trades. And his latest project will not make us say the opposite.

“I was not very happy“
Born in Paris in 1990, Emma Watson has always been very attached to France, which she left very young, when her lawyer parents moved to the United Kingdom. And it is for the creation of this family gin, for which she specifies that she has not invested financially, that the actress, who has not shot any film since The Daughters of Doctor March in 2018, deserted the film sets. “I wasn’t very happy, to be honest. I believe that I felt a little caged“she explains to the Financial Times. And even if it means moving away from the cinema, she might as well go to an environment she has known well since childhood. “My father used to give me water with wine for lunch since I was a child. I didn’t think alcohol was for getting drunk. So I was very troubled when I was a teenager and everyone thought alcohol was forbidden fruit.”she says, visibly happy to start a new adventure.
