Harry Potter star Emma Watson said she may give up acting after finishing the hit film series.
Emma, 19, plays the role of teenage witch Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter film series and said she may not return to acting when she finished shooting the flicks.
She said: “Until something comes along that I feel as strongly as I did Hermione – like, I felt that it was life or death – I don’t want to act again.”
Emma is currently promoting the next film, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, as well as shooting the final two flicks.
She said: “I don’t think I’ve ever been this tired in my life. I literally wear my pyjama bottoms to set. I roll out of bed and put on a hoodie and some Ugg boots.”
Emma also confirmed rumours she is dating financier Jay Barrymore, 25, and dismissed rumours they have repeatedly split.
She said: “The only reason it’s ‘on/off’ is because the papers make up so much rubbish.”
Emma has made no secret of her plans to attend university once shooting has wrapped on the films but she is keeping quiet about which university she is attending.
She said: “I just want to keep it private for as long as I can. I probably sound like a paranoid nut, but I’m doing this because I want to be normal. I really want anonymity.”
