During a chat show appearance in New York City, Emma Watson shared that she attended a ‘princess boot camp’ to get ready for her role in Beauty And The Beast. She mentioned getting to ride a horse, learning to waltz, and having singing lessons and rehearsals to prepare for the role. Watson described the experience as “cool.”
When asked if she could still waltz, Watson modestly replied that she could “stumble her way through something reasonable.” Beauty And The Beast premiered in London in February and was released in the US in March.
Fun times: The British actress and host of The Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon, had a good chuckle as they reminisced about their initial encounter. The romantic fantasy movie has raked in over $1 billion in ticket sales globally, making it the top-grossing film of the year. “It’s absolutely insane,” Watson remarked about its success at the box office. “It just goes to show how much people adore the film, which is truly fantastic,” she further commented.
Exciting news! Emma was out there promoting her upcoming film, The Circle, which is set to hit theaters this Friday in the United States. During her promotional rounds, she couldn’t help but chuckle about her past guest appearance on a talk show with Fallon.
It turns out that Fallon, who is 42 years old, and Emma go way back. They first crossed paths years ago when he was hosting Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. Emma fondly remembered complimenting him on his hilarious Halloween candy pranks. However, Fallon had to remind her that those shenanigans were actually Jimmy Kimmel’s doing, not his own. Oops!
Watson shared her reaction to the Disney blockbuster “Beauty And The Beast” surpassing $1 billion at the global box office, saying, “I felt like I was dying inside.” Known for her role in the Harry Potter series since childhood, Fallon joked about not wanting to embarrass Watson during her appearance on his show. The actress was there to promote her latest film, “The Circle,” which debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City.
Tom Hanks, Emma Watson, and Patton Oswalt can be seen in a snapshot from The Circle, a movie adapted from Dave Eggers’ 2013 novel of the same title. This film will hit theaters in the US on Friday.
In February 2016, Watson shared her decision to take a break from acting for a year to dedicate her time to advocacy for women’s rights and self-improvement. As for her upcoming projects, there are no more films scheduled for release this year.
Dave Eggers, who was spotted at the New York City premiere of The Circle, is the mastermind behind the 2013 novel of the same name. Collaborating with director James Ponsoldt, Eggers also lent his talents to co-writing the screenplay for the film adaptation.
