"They just decided, on absolutely nothing to go on, that they were just going to make up one way or another what I was doing," the English actress says of reports that she wanted to pull out of the popular kid wizard series before its sixth and final seventh episodes are filmed. "I guess they got the idea that I wasn't going to complete the series because I actually took some time to think about it. The press are a bit funny like that."
Oxford native Watson, who turned 17 this month and is currently cramming for her college entrance exams, happily chose to stick with co-stars Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint to the end. All are anxiously awaiting J.K. Rowling's last novel in the best-selling phenomenon, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," to find out what happens to their beloved characters. The book comes out eight days after "Phoenix" hits theaters.
When you think about it, it would be nearly impossible for one of the young actors not to complete Hermione, Harry and Ron Weasley's journey into adulthood. After all, the three of them have grown up sharing a connection as unique as the aspiring magicians'.
"Daniel and Rupert are the only other people in the world who will ever understand what it is like to have been through what I have been through," Watson notes. "I think we have quite a special bond. Even if we hated each other and didn't get on at all, we would always have that. That's important to me, being able to talk to them about it and going through it all with them."
While acknowledging that all of the Harry Potter stories are in some way coming-of-age tales, Watson says that the magical friends do more growing up than ever in "Phoenix."
"It's about realizing that what you are told is not always the best, and that thinking for yourself is sometimes more important," she observes. "And it's important to trust yourself and make decisions for yourself."
