As one of the stars of the
Harry Potter films, Emma Watson developed a close bond with J K Rowling.
The actress was not, however, sent a preview copy of The Casual Vacancy,
which went on sale on Thursday.
“I’ll need to go to a bookshop,” the 22-year-old actress tells Mandrake
at a gala screening of her forthcoming film The Perks of Being a
Wallflower, at the Mayfair Hotel in London. “I’d like to read it – I
haven’t yet, I'm sure it will be amazing. I don’t think I have one being
sent to me.”
Watson, who played Hermione Granger in the films about the boy wizard, says
Rowling’s move into novels for adults is similar to the way that she is now
starring in films for an older audience. “It is an exciting time for both of
us, nerve-wracking but exciting,” she says.
