Emma has updated her EMS section to wish everyone a happy Christmas and a safe New Year! She also posts about her first week of filming – plus mentions the latest scene she has filmed – the kissing scene(s) between Ron and Lavender! Emma comments that it is all “going really well” and the scenes was “really quite fun!”

Check out her new message here!

Plus, I’ve found a new article, which relates to the Telegraph article a while ago. Of course, we now know that the Telegraph altered some of the Emma quotes present in that article, but an Emma article is an Emma article, yes? I’ve added it here to our press archive.

Playing Hermione in the Harry Potter films has brought Emma Watson unimagined wealth and fame. But sometimes the 17-year-old actress would just like hang out with her friends without causing a scene.

Official “Half-Blood Prince” Description Released

Thanks to The Leaky Cauldron, we have the official description of the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince film. The first official publicity still, an image of Harry with his map and potions book, has also been released and you may view that here at TLC.

Fantasy Adventure. Voldemort is tightening his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds and Hogwarts is no longer the safe haven it once was. Harry suspects that dangers may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle that he knows is fast approaching. Together they work to find the key to unlock Voldemort’s defenses and, to this end, Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague, the well-connected and unsuspecting bon vivant Professor Horace Slughorn, whom he believes holds crucial information. Meanwhile, the students are under attack from a very different adversary as teenage hormones rage across the ramparts. Harry finds himself more and more drawn to Ginny, but so is Dean Thomas. And Lavender Brown has decided that Ron is the one for her, only she hadn’t counted on Romilda Vane’s chocolates! And then there’s Hermione, simpering with jealously but determined not to show her feelings. As romance blossoms, one student remains aloof. He is determined to make his mark, albeit a dark one. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same again.

Emma is due to start filming on December 18th, and the movie will be in theaters November 21, 2008.

MORE! The Telegraph has published a new interview with Emma. Emma talks about being Hermione, being Pauline, her audition for Hermione, dressing up for the red carpet, and so forth. A new photoshoot image accompanies the article.

EDIT! I’ve added some random HQ images to the gallery, from various Emma outings from this year. Enjoy! - Kaetlyn

New Emma article

Added a new article, which speaks about HBP and other randomosities.

“It’s funny because it happened to me when I was so young,” Watson tells Sun Media. “You barely notice yourself growing up when it’s happening, but I guess that’s what has happened, really. It’s very peculiar looking back on them and seeing how much I’ve changed and how much I’ve grown and what I looked like before all this happened. But, in a way, that’s what people really identify with. It makes it a real journey — a very real journey — because we literally are growing up with the characters.”

View the article here in our press archive (psst, this article was our 100th article! We’ve got loads more!). Sorry about the delays in news and such – we’re all very busy, cooking up lots of fun stuff for the Christmas season. :D Toodles poodles!

Emma’s official site has updated with new pictures of Emma’s dad’s private pictures from Pride of Britain Awards.

The site also lets us know that this time Emma’s dress is designed by the British Designer Matthew Williamson, and the handbag actually belonged to her grandmother.

Also, for those who cannot wait for the sixth Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, some new “exciting”(?) pictures have emerged of what is supposed to be Horace Slughorn’s house (what’s up with always the first pictures we get are of houses (usually being Hagrid’s hut)?). You can view them here.

Thanks to Snitch Seeker, we’ve got another new picture of Emma filming Ballet Shoes, as well as an interview from the LA red carpet premiere of HP&OOTP in which Emma describes the next Potter film, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, as a “romantic comedy”.

Apparently, filming on Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the sixth movie of the series, in which Emma will be again playing Hermione Granger, is due to begin in early September. David Yates will be again directing (refresher: he also directed the just-released Order of the Phoenix) and Steve Kloves will be returning as screenwriter (he wrote the first four films, although Michael Goldenberg wrote HP&OOTP). The release date is November 21, 2008 – only 454 days from now! Heh.

Anyway, thanks to LeakyNews.com, we’ve got a few snippets of info on how Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is going. Rupert Grint said in a radio interview with Jo Whiley that:

We sort of read the script through. We got all the cast to come around to read the script and we’ll be filming it for another year so . . . Ron’s got a girlfriend in this one. It’s a little bit more intense for him! So it should be fun!

There’s also some intriguing info on night filming that’s going to be happening around Wiltshire, England in October. You can check out Leaky’s information on that here.

Still working on uploading more old pictures! I’ve just got pictures from the Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone London Conference up at ihwmedia.net and am busily uploading Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban London Photocall and Press Conference images, so have fun with those!

Allison: Emma-Watson.net has posted a translation of an interview “Tu” magazine conducted with Rupert and Emma. They talk briefly about the fifth movie and university plans, as well as the Harry Potter books. That’s available here – thanks, E-Wnetters!

Emma’s official site has also been updated with some exciting news! Emma’s already halfway through filming Ballet Shoes, plus there’s also some tantalizing information about some more features Emma’s site will be opening up in September!
