NAGAWANG pagsama-samahin ng Disney ang Gryffindors at Slytherins! Maraming A-lister ang dumalo sa world premiere ng Beauty and the Beast sa Los Angeles, California, nitong Huwebes ng gabi at sinamahan si Emma Watson ng dalawang special guest mula sa kanyang nakaraan.
Parehong dumalo sina Matthew Lewis, gumanap bilang Neville Longbottom, at Tom Felton, gumanap bilang Draco Malfoy sa Harry Potter, sa premiere para suportahan ang kanilang dating co-star.
Naglakad sa red carpet si Lewis kasama ang kanyang fiancée na si Angela Jones, at mas pinili naman ni Felton na maging low profile sa hindi pagdaan sa red carpet. Pero nakita ng ET ang dating kontrabida ng Slytherin sa event.
Naging espesyal ang gabi para kay Emma, na ibinahagi kay Cameron Mathioson ng ET ang tungkol sa pagganap niya sa isa sa kanyang mga fictional idol.
“This was a huge deal for me,”aniya sa paganap niya kay Belle habang nakasuot ng itim na jumpsuit na may golden gardenia brooch na likha ni Oscar de la Renta. “I mean, I watched it as a child, you know, ad nauseam to the point where my parents were like, ‘We can’t watch it again, please.’ And so I feel like I’ve been incredibly blessed in my career so far. I already played Hermione who was one of my heroines. I played Sam in Perks of Being a Wallflower. But to play Belle is just feels like such an honor. And you know if my five-year-old self knew I was going to get to do this, she would have died.”
Ibinahagi rin niya na nagkaroon ng update ang live-action na pelikula mula sa orihinal na animated Disney princess story.
“The original came out in 1992, and we’re in 2017, so I knew it needed to take a little bit of step forward,” saad ng British actress. “But what’s so lovely about this character is I feel like of the Disney princesses she was one of the more progressive already. That was already in her DNA, and it was a case of really emphasizing what was already there.” - ET Online
