The Harry Potter actress – who plays Hermione Granger in the movie franchise – can always rely on her co-star to make her feel better when she’s feeling down. She told Vanity Fair: “At the end of the day, when something goes badly, he’s the one I turn to and talk it over with.” However, she does admit Daniel, who plays Harry, has his faults, saying: “Some of the most interesting conversations I’ve had have been with him. Daniel is incredibly articulate. but he doesn’t budge, so it drives me crazy. I’ll be stumbling into the trailer in the morning, and he’ll be playing something just very loud and abrasive.” Emma also revealed she found it difficult to hug Daniel in the first ‘Harry Potter’ movie because she was so young. She said: “You cannot imagine as a nine-year-old girl how embarrassing it is even just to hug a boy. You just don’t do that.” Emma, 19, is equally as close to Rupert Grint – whose alter-ego in the films is Ron Weasley – and knows she can always rely on him to make her laugh. She said: “I’d go to Rupert when I needed cheering up. He’s just fun.”

    I love that they all get along so well. They’ll probably sustain their friendships throughout their lives. And she’s right, hugging a boy when you’re 10 is difficult, it’s even worse when they have to kiss on screen before they’ve even done it in real life, I wish they’d leave sex for adults (who already find it hard enough to be making out with a stranger for a move) and not have kids do inappropriate stuff in TV and movies.
