Watson attended the Dragon School and trained in acting at the Oxford branch of Stagecoach Theatre Arts. As a child, she rose to stardom after landing her first professional acting role as Hermione Granger in the ''Harry Potter'' film series, having previously acted only in school plays. Watson made her first major forays beyond the Potter franchise starring in ''Ballet Shoes'' (2007), and lent her voice to ''The Tale of Despereaux'' (2008). After the final ''Harry Potter'' film, she took on a supporting role in ''My Week with Marilyn'' (2011), before starring as Sam, a flirtatious, free-spirited student in ''The Perks of Being a Wallflower'' (2012), to critical success. Further acclaim came from portraying Alexis Neiers in Sofia Coppola's ''The Bling Ring'' (2013) and the titular character's adoptive daughter in Darren Aronofsky's biblical epic ''Noah'' (2014). That same year, Watson was honoured by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, winning British Artist of the Year. She also starred as Belle in the live-action musical romantic fantasy ''Beauty and the Beast'' (2017), and as Meg March in Greta Gerwig's coming-of-age drama ''Little Women'' (2019).
From 2011 to 2014, Watson split her time between working on films and continuing her education, graduating from Brown University with a bachelor's degree in English literature in May 2014. That year, she was appointed a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador and helped launch the UN Women campaign HeForShe, which advocates for gender equality. In 2018, she helped launch Time's Up UK as a founding member. Watson was appointed to a G7 advisory body for women's rights in 2019, consulting with leaders on foreign policy. Her modelling work has included campaigns for Burberry and Lancôme. She also lent her name to a clothing line for the sustainable brand People Tree. From 2020 to 2023, she sat on the board of directors of Kering, a luxury brand group, in her capacity as an advocate for sustainable fashion. Provided by Wikipedia
