Emma Watson in a new photoshoot and interview with Vogue UK. At last!


[Fashion] [Version française]










Photoshoot by Emma's friend Mack Breeden.

HQs added to the gallery.  











Do you remember when you first heard about the possibility of a 20th-anniversary reunion?

Tom [Felton] gave the game away by hosting a “19-year reunion”, so the twentieth anniversary was definitely in my mind with a fair bit of run up! 

How did it feel to be with your cast mates again on those incredible sets?

Like heaven, honestly. I am just so happy they still exist! Most film sets are torn down the minute a scene is finished. I am so happy they are still there for people to enjoy, me included. Stuart Craig is truly a genius. What he did is perfect.

What was it like to sit down with Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint in the Gryffindor common room?

It was emotional and also intense to have such an intimate moment so closely watched. Mostly I was just so happy to have a mediator who could ask us these questions and get to be part of seeing how differently – and similarly – we had processed things. I love that we remembered different things.

You spoke about your childhood crush on Tom Felton and fans loved it. What has it been like for you and Tom to see that?

[Laughs] We speak most weeks, and we just think it’s sweet.

You have a lovely moment with Rupert towards the end. Was that the most emotional moment of the reunion for you, or was it something else?

No, that was the most emotional moment for me. When Rupert says things, he really means them. I was taken aback by how vulnerable and kind he was deciding to be so publicly. Similarly for Dan, it really touched me how reflective he had been over the years about how different it had been for me as a girl. 

The response to the reunion has been amazing. Are you, Dan and Rupert on a group chat, and have you been talking about it?

They both hate WhatsApp and their phones in general. Actually, as a three, we really try and stay off electronics so that doesn’t help for a massive amount of back and forth. We aren’t on a group chat but we speak individually. Rupert sends me pictures of [his daughter] Wednesday and I die. Dan and I generally try and calm each other’s nerves. We both mainly try and stay out of the limelight so it’s been nice to have each other’s support, knowing there was going to be another wave of attention coming.

If you could go back in time and speak to that 10-year-old version of yourself who was so eager to play Hermione that it terrified her parents, what would you say?

That’s a whole article I might write one day.

What are the biggest lessons you’ve learned from working on the Harry Potter films?

I don’t think there was anything I didn’t learn. That was the beauty of it. It was my kindergarten, school and university. Animals, special effects, media training, stunts… it was endless. I feel so thankful.

And would you come back to Hogwarts for another reunion 20 years from now?

Definitely.

What’s next for you in 2022?

You’ll have to wait and see, but there are projects...

"You’ll have to wait and see," How many years? I have done my waiting.

Nah she did this with Mack in UK! its for 'UK vogue' haha

I did say in older comments that mack was a photographer and it was likely she did a shoot with Emma :)

"There are projects?"

So is this new movies Emma will star in like rumored marvel stuff? or is it her filmmaking Emma is speaking about?

yeah this is from october/early november 2021 look at the hair

It seems the interview is all about the reunion.
Seems odd timing, I mean it's over, no need to hype it.

Only thing that makes sense to me is that she is effectively promoting Mack's work.

Yes, This should have come out in December but i feel there was some kind of delay

Anonymous said...

She looks really really good. Love this style on her. And the interview certainly whetted our appetite

Anonymous said...

The photos were taken ages ago but the interview is clearly 'after' the reunion as look at the questions talking about the 'response' to the reunion its clearly written in January

Anonymous said...

These shots are obviously part of the shots from Emma insta Mack took where she is wearing white in that UK castle place

yeah we caught that Mack was likely doing a shoot ages ago and why they went to Adele together celebrating a good shoot haha

She became a lot more active again after starting to date seth yay! xd

"she gives a quick one-line answer before they move on fast so its okay imo"

Yup exactly look at her far longer detailed answers about Dan and Rupert clearly what she'd rather be talking about

I can't wait for more casual fans

showing up here
and thinking it's a real thing lmao

Nice Black and White shoot!
Emma giving Eden and French fans what they want!

yasss modeling is what Emma is best at for sure!! so good!!

Eden, if there appear new hate comments against Emmy combined with threats to kill you or something like, but not telling do not approve what was written or leaving it to you to approve or disapprove it is not the "German bot".
And I always hate the nailbiting pictures xD They make you feel uncomfortable with your own person xD

Anonymous said...

the last comment reads like the german bot wrote it? lol

Eden said...

Yeah, apparently the death threat person and German bot are different people. I'm willing to believe them. I'm sure there are unfortunately more than a few trolls or crazy people visiting.

Anonymous said...

I don't know what you guys are saying xD

maybe Eden can explain it?

what is german bots?

Anonymous said...

What about the Feltonson-hating report the blog comments? is that the german bot or some unhinged shipper? lol too much crazy people

Eden said...

German bot's a troll that used to post a lot of nonsense. Rarely does it now that I'm moderating the comments. There's a second person who threatened to kill me for not letting them insult Emma, and there's a third person who's basically an anti-Feltson who threatened to have my blog shut down for posting about Emma saying she fell in love with Tom as a child.

Anonymous said...

Unfortunately, Emma having 65million followers means not all of them will be normal people and some will be disturbed and leave awful comments smh

"...crazy people visiting."

Stay out of the basement.

These pics are much like the elle us photoshoot of 2014, and I'm surprised that she hasn't changed much over the years.

Eden, who is your therapist? Emma should pay him/her.

"These pics are much like the elle us photoshoot of 2014, and I'm surprised that she hasn't changed much over the years."

I actually think she looks much more mature which is a nice change.

"Eden, who is your therapist? Emma should pay him/her."

My therapist's The Dodo on Youtube. Emma can pay for my internet connection though.

Emma conducts therapy sessions in edens basement of course

I noticed on the Vogue website these credits;

Photographer: Mack Breeden
Art direction: Emma Watson
Hair: Jenny Harling
Makeup: Philippa Louise

So Emma obviously set the tone of the photoshoot.

The one behind the 'screen' has a Barbarella feel to it.

Eden make sure to use your detective skills to find outtakes from this shoot we know you have the contacts ;)

dabo said...

""You’ll have to wait and see," How many years? I have done my waiting."

Well, her bio says "this account is now resting & creating" go figure, she need to rest after a couple months? of work... so... 2025, maybe?

Eden said...

"we know you have the contacts ;)"

How I wish.

Anonymous said...

Why did uk vogue not have the colour pics? they are from vogue Arabia or something? lol

Eden said...

I don't check the comments for a little while and pretty much every single comment (and there were dozens) is about Tom or Feltson, complaining. I wish I could go back to this morning when I was excited because now I'm just annoyed.

No comment mentioning either of them will be published. Some of you just take those silly things way too seriously.

Anonymous said...

Urughh, not that debate again glad I missed it, let's just focus on Emma and ignore that stuff

We have projects coming and should discuss that instead xD

Anonymous said...

"Emma Watson daily" on Twitter normally finds the outtakes of these kind of shoots I think they buy them somehow? so keep an eye on there if you want them it could take months though before any gets posted I'm not sure how often the account gets new ones

Eden said...

"We have projects coming and should discuss that instead xD"

I know! She talked in her instagram post about "producing photoshoots for their websites or headshots for their businesses". I'm guessing the photoshoots for website has to do with Mack, but sounds to me like "headshots for their businesses" might be different unless it's old and she could refer to Andrea Carter Bowman. She also said "Then I got involved in editing" and I wonder if that's something we're going to see later or if it'll be some uncredited work.

""Emma Watson daily" on Twitter normally finds the outtakes of these kind of shoots I think they buy them somehow? so keep an eye on there if you want them it could take months though before any gets posted I'm not sure how often the account gets new ones"

She used to but I'm not sure she still does.

They are trying to appeal to more french people by using black and white shots! we explained it already ;)

but actings done i guess. and no more social media as well. what do you think eden? or do u think she is hinting at acting as well as other projects?

im going to make this video but 'leave eden alone' version so people stop starting fights in comments xd

I think Emma plans to use ger platform to promote other women in very hands-on fashion from now on making documentaries and doing photoshoots and articles for them

Eden said...

"but actings done i guess. and no more social media as well. what do you think eden? or do u think she is hinting at acting as well as other projects?"

The amount of passion I feel she has for directing doesn't even compare to the amount of passion I felt she had for acting in the last 18 years combined. But it depends on the story or the director. I think she's more interested in acting to be part of a story she thinks should be told than for love of acting.

Anonymous said...

"but actings done i guess"

Why are you assuming it's binary? She's always picked movies when she actually wants to do them, not just to get a gig.

Anonymous said...

I feel she wants to be creative no matter what she is doing and producing her own works of art like videos or photoshoots that rely only on her and not on studios or other people she has to sell ideas to first is a good way to get more stuff made without needing other peoples approval first :)

Eden said...

"im going to make this video but 'leave eden alone' version so people stop starting fights in comments xd

XD I'm back to being excited now. I'm a parrot for emotions. If people are annoyed, I'm going to be annoyed. If people are excited, I'm going to be excited. Now that we're back at talking about Emma's projects I'm all good :D

She used to... When she had the site, I doubt she will get more just to post them on twitter.
Besides, it was made by a friend, directed by Emma herself, I don't think she will sell any outtake.

Holly said...

"I actually think she looks much more mature which is a nice change."

That's what I thought! I really like these pictures. She tends to look young(er?), but here, there's something different, and I love it.

Anonymous said...

its weird they would sell certain pics to a different version of vogue but not use them all for the uk one, i think some random outtakes could leak or other shots for other editions of vogue in other countries might come out later too

Anonymous said...

At the end of the year, we will see a documentary series on some streaming platform like Netflix that will be Emma's full debut :D

though maybe she will only post stuff online to her social media platforms?

Eden said...

Or get a Youtube channel and give all the money she can get there to whatever cause her videos would probably be about.
I'm not subscribed to any streaming service so I would really prefer Youtube :p

Anonymous said...

Youtube would help her find the biggest audience as long as she posts the link to her 65m followers on insta first and then she can also earn all the ad revenue for herself or her causes without needing to pay a streaming service to host her work

Anonymous said...

There are more photos in Vogue Mexico, Spain and Portugal.

Eden said...

Thank you :)

Anonymous said...

I knew there would be more pics for other countries! always listen to Spanish Emma fans Eden we have the best info hehe ;)

Anonymous said...

Is it just me or the first black and white photo of Emma in white from the castle place she has a very 'French' expression on her face? you know that 'slightly vacant but cute' expression? I'm I crazy right now? xd

perhaps i can't explain the look that well its kind of look Lea Seydoux often does maybe its why i associate with being french ahaha

Anonymous said...

There is something haunting about that picture, the look in Emma's eye it's quite beautiful...I dunno if she looks 'French' in it but maybe Eden can give her opinion? XD

Anonymous said...

So beautiful! Mack is a wonderful photographer!

Anonymous said...

its the look of awe at being outside after so long in edens basement obviously

dabo said...

There are more in the Russian edition... basically you have to check every issue (done)

Eden said...

Thank you :) I'll just check all the websites tomorrow. I'm getting so lazy as soon as the sun's down.

Anonymous said...

Mack is so excited, she keeps posting stories XD It's a big deal for her, the first time her photographs have been published in Vogue.

dabo said...

Yeah, most of the sites have nothing yet (Germany, Italy, France, Scandinavia, Korea, etc...) but they may post the article during the week. Brazil & India did it but they repost a coouple pics.

Anonymous said...

These pics are incredibly gorgeous!

I can definitely see Emma playing a classy character. The pics are sexy and elegant at the same time. Very classy.

Anonymous said...

the art direction here... I think Emma is a fan of the movie 'the love witch' xd

El Roberto said...

Do you also think the hairstyle of the first 5 pics could be inspired by Adele? ×hands-in-front-of-eyes*

El Roberto said...

omg to me this really is an Adele-hairstyle :-O

lol I saw a fake emma sent you a message on twitter eden I bet you knew it wasn't real Emma as she is still in your basement ;)

Emma doing a world tour through the Vogue XD. Why the interview has like 5 questions?

I think it was just a short phone interview for the reunion not for the cover.

dabo said...

The article has been published on sites from other countries, nothing new except a color pic. And the Australian site used the 2018 photoshoot... aussies.

Ladies of the forum - are those Emma's own nails, or are they artificial?

Photos are good but she was very vague on new projects

Natalie said...

Would it be available in paper version in the next Vogue or only digital?

Eden said...

Probably only digital. I don't think the interview was long enough to be worth a spread in the magazine.

yeah this wasnt a cover shoot digital only probably
