Emma Watson admitted she had a ‘terrible crush’ on Harry Potter co-star during filming

    Emma Watson revealed that she had a significant crush on her Harry Potter co-star during the early days of filming.

    The 34-year-old actress, known for her role as Hermione, appeared on The Jonathan Ross Show in 2012 to share her two-year-long crush on her co-star.

    In the interview, Watson mentioned that she struggled to step into a role different from Hermione once the film series concluded.

    Itโ€™s hard to believe that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows โ€“ Part 2 was released back in 2011, marking the last time she portrayed the Hogwarts student.

    “I wasnโ€™t sure if I believed in myself as an actress outside of Hermione, a role I felt confident in and played for so long,” she said.

    “I wasnโ€™t sure if I had other characters inside me or not.”

    “I did have some doubts about myself.”

    “I had just spent ten years playing one character who was quite similar to my own personality. I became so comfortable in that role that the thought of stepping out to portray someone else was really daunting.”
