The only way I could tell the story was to intensify it, and shed anything that didn't serve that, ... It all flows very well, so you kind of forget what is actually missing.
If I were in the director's chair, I would cast [Geena Davis] in something awesome every six months if I had the choice.
Originally what I used to love was being on a stage and reacting to a live audience and maybe my calling is more in theatre.
If anyone else played Hermione, it would actually kill me.
Why has the word become such an uncomfortable one?
I feel like a voodoo doll. It's grim. It's gross.
I don't really buy designer stuff. I have a few nice things, but I don't really have the occasion to wear couture too often.
I have collections of quirky things from places I've been to, like a set of Russian dolls.
If I was going to be a princess, I would be a warrior princess.
Chivalry should be consensual.
My grandma said - when I was really young and I'd sing along to the radio - why do you sing in an American accent? I guess it was because a lot of the music I was listening to had American vocalists.
I would love to persuade Christopher Bailey to get even just a section of Burberry that's, like, organic or free trade. I love him, he's a very good person and an amazing designer, and I have a lot of respect and time for him.
When I was younger, they used to tease me. And now they’re quite protective.
If I went to somewhere busy, I wouldn't last very long. I can't go to a museum - I'll last 10 or 15 minutes in a museum. The problem is that when one person asks for a photograph, then someone sees a flash goes off, then everyone else sort of... it's sort of like a domino effect.
