Emma Watson is to join the cast of new BBC drama, called "Ballet Shoes".
It seems as though Emma Watson is never out of school uniform.Like many a young girl, she fell in love with Noel Streatfield's novel Ballet Shoes. And she is thrilled to be playing the part of the orphaned Pauline Fossil in the BBC's adaption.
"I think the books are really special and could not let such an amazing project go. I loved Pauline from the start," she said on her website. The doleful expression on her face as she wandered around the set in navy frock coat and beret is thought to have been purely for the camera. She replaced it with a smile during breaks in filming.
The feature-length film, set in 1930s London, tells the story of Pauline and her two sisters, who are adopted by an eccentric explorer, played by Richard Griffiths.
To get into character, Miss Watson has taken ballet lessons and dyed her hair white blonde.
The young actress, who is still at school, has amassed a £10million fortune after appearing in the five Harry Potter films, based on JK Rowling's novels.
Last month she was unveiled as the cover girl for the magazine Tatler.

she looks hella ugly in that pic dawg

my sister read the books. and i'll probably be forced to watch it with her.

I've never heard of the book, is it a series?

Ahh. I read these books when I was little and I loved them! I bought my little niece the "Shoes" book series too.

This book is the reason I still dance ballet and why my niece got all "inspired" to dance too so I'll definitely watch it. Plus I loved Emma Watson in Harry Potter.

Never heard of it

Idk looks different by the pictures.

ahh I'm excited! I'll watch anything with one of the HP trio in it... except maybe Equus (sp?)

What's with the whole orphan thing though? Daniel plays one as Harry Potter, then again in December Boys, now Emma too?

One of my friends is IN LOVE with her, no lie. I don't really see what the big deal is. I've never heard of this...

Hmm..seems interesting enough.
I remember there was a movie with rupert grint..but it didn't really make it "big"..big enough to get on the screens. But there were promos.
It doesn't look like Emma's here is white blond.

she looks so much younger in the pictures.. well never heard of it too

can't wait till rupert turn to go solo

I heard about this during the craze when DH book came out.

TheReasonWhy, what Rupert solo?

I used to check up on the trio regularly before. I think I've lost interest in HP now. :x

^ oh.. i meant like.. daniel did december boys.. and emma is now doing a new movie so it ought to be rupert's turn sooner or later.. sorry about the misunderstanding > <

i wanna see it just because she's in it lol.

God, I love her. Her accent, her face--everything! I think I'll just see it cause she's in it too.

She looks odd in pigtails. I might watch it.

Ohh. So I guess you haven't heard of Driving Lessons? :P

^ Haha. You are right, I haven't. In fact, I haven't paid attention to the cast of HP since like, couple years ago. Anyways. Thanks for the info xD

My God I HATE that hosting site.

Anyway, LOVE her. Sad that I haven't caught up on the other solo careers, but I'll der *try* to get a hold of this one.

not too excited. >_<

I saw a interview they had with him about that movie, it just seemed way to weird in my opinion.

I heard about this. It's nice to see the trio break away from their Harry Potter roles.

I really like Emma Watson.
So I'll probably see this.

Never heard of it and I probably won't go see it

When i clicked the link I saw porn...

Emma Watson makes my soul shrink.
