Harry Potter fans might not be able to let go of Emma Watson as Hermione just yet. But the 22-year-old’s doing her best to step away from the role she played while growing up.
The new direction arrives with the comedy-drama The Perks of Being a Wallflower, which was featured at the Toronto International Film Festival, and opens in theatres Sept. 28.
In the movie, the English actress plays the against-type Sam in a striking way. Sam’s an American high school senior from Pittsburgh in the 1980s. She’s also an extrovert and buddy to her flamboyant stepbrother, Patrick (Ezra Miller).
