Emma
Watson
has
agreed
to
star
in
the
final
two
Harry
Potter
movies.
The
16-year-old
actress,
who
reportedly
told
movie
bosses
she
no
longer
wanted
to
play
Hermione
over
fears
of
being
typecast,
has
been
persuaded
to
commit
to
the
remaining
installments
of
the
boy
wizard
series.
Emma
said:
"I
could
never
let
Hermione
Granger
go.
I
love
her
too
much
and
love
what
playing
her
has
meant
to
me.
I'm
excited
and
honoured
to
be
finishing
what
I
started
and
playing
her
in
all
seven
films." Emma
has
signed
a
deal
which
will
earn
her
a
reported
£2
million
per
movie.
Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint - who play Harry Potter and Ron Weasley respectively - have already agreed to reprise their roles for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Earlier this month, Rupert revealed Emma was keen to take on new challenges. He said: "Emma doesn't want to do it any more. She's tired of being known as'that girl from Harry Potter.' " Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix - the franchise's fifth film - will be released this summer. Author J.K. Rowling's final book, 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows', will be published in July.
