Emma Watson to Appear in Raunchy Role

Sat, 06 January 2007 12:00:00 ET

'Harry Potter' actress Emma Watson is set to follow co-star Daniel Radcliffe by appearing in a raunchy role. Emma, 16 - who plays Hermione Granger in the wizard movies - has been lined up to star as a rebellious ringleader in a new St Trinian's movie. Daniel Radcliffe has shocked theatre fans by stripping off for his stage debut in 'Equus' - but Emma will be keeping her clothes on for her first venture outside Hogwarts.

A source said: "Emma has agreed in principle to star, pending final approval of the script, which is still undergoing re-writes. She thinks it will be a lot of fun and a good stepping stone away from the world of Harry Potter." Emma will star alongside Rupert Everett - who will take on the role of cross-dressing headmistress Millicent Fritton. Emma is no stranger to girls' boarding schools - she attends the single-sex Headington School in Oxford, England.
