Hello, Emma fans!

We have two "new" photos from a photoshoot for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix of Emma as Hermione. No photos from Half-Blood Prince, but still, it's something right? And she looks gorgeous!

 

To see other pictures of other characters, you can go to Oclumência (thanks to them for the above pictures)

Have a lovely day!

EWO has been updated with some news about Emma's rumored role  in Napolean and Betsy that we told you about on the 18th. Go check it out.


I said the other day that I would put up some guidelines on designing submissions for Watson Weekly. I still need to do that, but I thought I would give some basic information in case anyone wanted to start on something right away. If you don't want to design the page(s) yourself, you can ignore this.

• The page size we will be using is the international standard A4 (210 × 297mm or 8.3 × 11.7 inches). You should use a resolution of 300 pixels/inch. If you are working in pixels and not paper size, that would be 2480 x 3508 pixels.
  
• Use 0.5 inch margins. You can go outside the margins, but not with anythng important as part of it may be cut off.
  
• The pages will be reduced, so you shouldn't use too small of a font, 14 pt should be the smallest you use.
  
• If you use special fonts, they must be available free on the web, or your submission will have to be saved and sent in as an image.

I will try to have more detailed guidelines soon.

At long last it's time for a new issue of Watson Weekly. We are making some changes to WW starting with this issue. Fan art and music videos have been regular features in WW, but we would like to start including more articles contributed by fans. In this issue we have several articles received over the past few months; a Ballet Shoes review, a look back at Emma's life over the years in Remember Emma, and a fan story about Emma at the Oxford Christmas Lights event. Neve also tells us about her trip to the Vanity Fair exhibit, and Amy talks about the making of WW, and how you can contribute.





There will be even more changes for the next issue which we hope you will like. For those who would like to contribute articles for WW, I will post some guidelines soon. If you wish to design your own pages, please wait until I have done that.

Have a nice day!

As I'm sure you all already know, the last HP film Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be split into two parts.
Today, ComingSoon.net announced that the first part of Deathly Hallows will be released on November 19th 2010.

So far no word on when part 2 will be released, but it was said before that we can expect it in May 2011.

We will let you know as soon as we hear anything more!

And EWO was updated telling us about "Harry Potter: The Exhibition". Go there to find out what it's about!

'Ello!

Emma was named one of the most stylish teen stars on StyleList.com. The website comments:

"Harry Potter hottie Emma Watson's eye for couture has made her a fashion force to be reckoned with at the tender age of 17. For the opening of the Vanity Fair exhibit at the London Portrait Gallery, she's stunning in Burberry Prorsum."

Her picture is #2 on the list.
Her Harry Potter co-star Daniel Radcliffe also made the list.

Congrats to them!

Update: As Tayna noted, we posted this back on 13 April. Oops! But some other sites are just getting around to posting it, so it's kind of like new news again.

Emma appeared on the ITV program Travels in Written Britain today, a new series about "how the places of Britain have influenced writers throughout history." Emma read an excerpt from George Eliot's great niece's diary. We have a video her segment. It's not the best quality, but it's all I've seen so far. Thanks to Danielle for sending it in.

Update: We have high quality version now in the video archive. Credit to snoop at celebutopia.

There is news today from The Hollywood Reporter that Emma is attached to star in Napolean and Betsy after Scarlett Johansson dropped out. From the article: "Watson will play Betsy Balcombe, a young, impetuous noblewoman trapped on the isolated British Isle of St. Helena who falls in love with Napoleon, who is in exile on the island." The period drama would likely begin shooting in the fall before Deathly Hallows starts in 2009. Thanks to everyone that let us know.

TV Alert
We have also heard that Emma will be appearing on the ITV program Travels in Written Britain, a new series that will look at "how the places of Britain have influenced writers throughout history." Emma will read an excerpt from George Eliot's great niece's diary. Thanks to the Sassy forums via musicnote. source

The program will air on ITV1 on Sunday at 10.45pm. If anyone can send us a capture we would appreciate it. High quality is best.

Have a great day!
