While we have not seen her on the screens since “The Daughters of Doctor March”, Emma Watson recently explained the reasons for this long absence.
Notably famous for having lent her features to the witch Hermione Granger, best friend of Harry Potter in the magic saga, but also for her roles in Noah or in Beauty and the Beast, Emma Watson seems to have deserted the screens for a few years.
While she was on the poster for Daughters of Doctor March in January 2020, the young actress has not integrated a single project since, and apparently has not set foot on a film set for almost 5 years now. .
As she was recently interviewed by the FinancialTimesEmma Watson returned to the main reason for this long break, explaining that she now wanted better control of her various projects, and to have more say in the matter:
“I was not very happy, to be honest”she confided.
“I think I felt a bit caged in. What I found really difficult was that I had to go and sell something that I didn’t have much control over. (…). It was very difficult having to be both the face and the spokesperson for things that I hadn’t been involved in. (…) I was held responsible in a way that I started to find very frustrating, because I had no say in it.”

Despite these disappointments, Emma Watson has no intention of stopping acting, as she also confirmed when the FinancialTimes asked her if she intended to pursue acting:
“Yes, absolutely. But I’m happy to take the time to wait for the next good project. I love what I do. I want to find a way of doing it that will allow me not to divide myself into several people, with many faces. And I don’t want to put myself in robot mode anymore.”
