Erin Daniels talks working with Emma Watson in "The Bling Ring"

[Version française]










AE: I know you just gave birth to your second child — congratulations, by the way! — but you also recently finished filming Sofia Coppola's The Bling Ring, right?

ED: Yes! I've got a nice little part in it. The film, itself, is kind of shocking. I don't know if you remember, but the film is actually based on the true story of these kids who were tracking celebrities on Twitter and using that information to break into their houses. And they were getting away with it! I mean, it was nuts! Eventually they got caught, because they got a little greedy. So, Emma Watson plays Nicki, one of the Bling Ring ring leaders, and I play her lawyer. I sit with her in her Vanity Fair interview and I take her to court, the whole thing.

AE: Did you enjoy working with Sofia Coppola?

ED: Oh, yes. She's so laid back. And, by the way, she has great style. She makes casual look so cool. I was actually filming a TV pilot for Fox while I was filming The Bling Ring, and I was very pregnant. Well, OK, not very pregnant. But it was right as I started showing, so I went to my doctor and I was like, "Can I do anything to minimize this baby bump? I mean, am I going to crush my baby?" And I was really showing when The Bling Ring finished shooting in April, so they had to dress me very creatively, and I've got a briefcase conveniently covering me up in some scenes.

AE: It's kind of blowing my mind that you're Hermione Granger's lawyer.

ED: [Laughs] I know, right? Well, Emma Watson is adorable, and she's talented. I really enjoyed working with her. I also have a special fondness for Taissa Farmiga [who plays Sam, another member of The Bling Ring]. She is whip smart and so sweet and funny. I'll be very lucky if my daughter grows up to be a little like her. That film was just a really great experience.
