The more we hear about Watson’s upcoming flick, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, the more it sounds like exactly what she needs to prove there’s more to her than just Harry Potter…

“You better gird your loins,” Perks actor Ezra Miller told me the other day while promoting his newest flick, Beware the Gonzo. “When it comes to Emma people just have no idea. People have no idea what they’re in for. It’s great!” Read more at the source.

“The world has only seen her basically in one role—a pretty conservative, sweet, smart character, which is great,” Watson’s Wallflower costar Nina Dobrev told us earlier today while promoting her PSA for Puma’s breast cancer charity organization Project Pink. “But this one, she pushes the envelope in a different way than anyone’s ever seen her, which is really great. It’s a great role for her.”

“I think they’re going to be excited to see her in something else,” Dobrev says. “And see her spread her wings and try different things. It’s always exciting to see someone you love do something different and see a different side of them.” Read more at the source.

How exactly did the partnership with the actress Emma Watson come to be?
It was her mother that knew someone on our board – an Oxford Professor who works a lot on fair-trade. A meeting was set up and it went from there! I think we very much wanted the same things – a collection that spoke to younger people but also had the integrity of being 100% fair-trade. She was really creative, really open-minded and absolutely lovely to work with. We took her out to Bangladesh this time last year and she was stunned by the level of artistry and hand-skills that go into making product. She was very involved and thinks about things very deeply, which was just wonderful. Read more at the source.

How’s the tone of the Beauty and the Beast project coming?
Well, I met with Emma Watson about it because I’m very interested in doing the movie with her. She’s just perfect for the film, and we talked about the classic iteration of the tale. I love the sort of darker, beautiful, hopelessly romantic but Gothic take on the tale. We discussed this. Read more at the source.

Emma’s official site has also been updated with photos, news and quotes from the line launch, with new additions to the Projects Page, Slideshow and Video. Emma also released a statement, via her official site, about the line and her design process; Safia, the head honcho of People Tree, has also released a small statement about Emma and her work ethics. Two videos from the photoshoot have also been added and can be seen below.

“I designed the collection last year after I’d started university in the US,” Emma revealed. “Safia, People Tree’s founder, and Misato, People Tree’s designer, came out to work with me in Rhode Island. Together we decided on all the colours, fabrics, shapes and craft skills. Most of all, we took care to design a really wearable collection that truly celebrates the traditional skills of People Tree’s fair trade groups around the world.”

“I was amazed at how many hours Emma put into this collection. We’d often go to her home in the evening after she finished filming to go through ideas, or she’d come to the studio laden with her own artwork – it was extremely impressive.”
