Calling all Marie Claire magazine subscription holders! Harry Potter star Emma Watson has revealed she had to work hard to bag a role in the film franchise.
Apparently, Emma's parents were worried by the effort she was putting in to audition for the part of Hermione Granger in the cult classic, and almost stopped her going for it.
She told Marie Claire magazine: "I started working on the audition at nine in the morning and didn't stop until five in the evening.
"The tape was just me doing the same thing hundreds of times over, until I got it exactly right. I was just amazed at my stamina. The grown-ups said, 'We had to stop you; you wanted to keep going.' I've always been like that; I give 100 per cent. I can't do it any other way."
Emma's latest Harry Potter film will be out in the UK this month. Originally, it was meant to be available in 3D format but producers announced last month this would no longer be the case.
