Emma Watson Quits Harry Potter!

Allie @ Gone Hollywood | Sunday, March 18, 2007

TEEN film star Emma Watson is about to do a vanishing act from Hogwarts — because the Harry Potter films have lost their magic. Huh?

The pretty 16-year-old, who plays key character Hermione Granger, wants a spell doing other roles. She has REFUSED to sign a new contract, plunging the final two movies of the JK Rowling novels into crisis.

The feisty young actress has told producers that even doubling her pay packet to £2 million a movie won’t do the trick. Filming on the sixth film in the series — Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince — is due to start in months.

Daniel Radcliffe is already signed up to star as the quidditch-playing wizard and Rupert Grint will again play Harry’s best pal Ron Weasley. He told us: “Emma doesn’t want to do it any more. She’s tired of being known as ‘that girl from Harry Potter’.”

She was shocked when a besotted fan stalked her at school.

Rupert added: “Daniel and I are distant from her now. We don’t text or talk to her when we are not filming.”

Their last film together — Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix — comes out in July.

Film makers Warner Brothers confirmed Emma, has not signed for more movies.
