She was“already a very big fan of the books.”So, there’s this rumor started going around her“school that there were these auditions for Harry Potter and they were coming to school.”In the clip, the young Watson continued:
“My school teacher called Mr. Hancock who has now left. Got, I think, a note, a letter saying, ‘if there’s any kids in school that you think could act in the Harry Potter film, would you mind them auditioning?’ And then, I had to go through a lot of auditions. So, I listened to him. Walk in.”
