She's the cool Brit who jumped out of movie-making mega-stardom and into a uni stint at Browns in New York. Now, she's back making Big Screen hits, ruling the red carpet - and totally nailing it on top magazine covers.
Yep, we're talking Emma Watson, who's currently rocking on the cover of Elle magazine's April cover in a sexy-cute denim jumpsuit by Balmain.
Inside the magazine, the amazing style parade continues with one photo showing her in cool suede Rupert Sanderson ankle boots and a crystal beaded top by Rodarte:
Another shows her looking 70s-cool in a Versace denim jacket, an Anthony Vaccarello jerry jumpsuit, a vintage felt hat:
And she also wows in a silk Celine top and fishnet skirt, finished with a felt hat by Chanel:
In her interview, Emma chats about her world outside acting, her new film Noah, and growing up on-screen. See the highlights below:
On the importance of having a life outside of her acting career: "I remember reading this thing that Elizabeth Taylor wrote. She had her first kiss in character. On a movie set. It really struck me. I don't know how or why, but I had this sense that if I wasn't really careful, that could be me. That my first kiss could be in somebody else's clothes. And my experiences could all belong to someone else."
Emma on coming of age in the public eye: "There are all these actresses who have emerged in the last year or two, and they get to emerge as this complete human being. And I'm so jealous!"
On Noah, Darren Aronofsky's $125 million dollar blockbuster, and what it was like playing Noah's adopted daughter, Ila: "It's Shakesperean, what happens to this family when they're put in this confined space for 40 days and 40 nights. It's the end of the world – how these different human beings are dealing with the impact of that. Are humans good? Are we bad? All of these themes are epic."
Darren Aronofsky on Emma's steely nerve while filming Noah: "We started off with one of Emma's hardest scenes. We shot in Iceland on a beach with an extremely difficult weather situation. The force of the wind – we could barely hear the actors. The sun kept coming in and out. We had to wait for the right light, then, Go, go, go! Then, Wait, wait, wait! She was able to block out all those ridiculous external forces and just focus on the emotion at hand."
