Emma Watson speaks about Ballet Shoes

Emma Watson has updated her official website with comments about her upcoming role as Pauline in Ballet Shoes, noting that she is currently training in ballet and confirming that she will be dying her hair for the part.

Quote:

I really thought I was going to take this summer off and then … I fell in love with Ballet Shoes.

I couldn’t let such an amazing project go. I think the books are really really special.

I loved Pauline from the start, she makes mistakes and comes across badly at times but I really felt as though I understood her. I share a lot of Pauline’s passions and insecurites.

The cast is really amazing and I cannot wait to work with everyone. I really feel like I need to do this. I am scared but excited.

And will she dye her hair for the role?

Quote:

(P.S.) I have started some ballet training which I love, and yes my hair is going blonde.

Futhermore the BBC have released an article via their Press Office, confirming further castings for the drama - a third Potter actor, Gemma Jones (Madame Pomfrey) shall be joining the ranks along with Robert Hardy (Cornelius Fudge) & Richard Griffiths (Vernon Dursley). Other non-Potter actors appearing in the programme include; Dame Eileen Atkins, Emilia Fox, Harriet Walter, Victoria Wood, Marc Warren, Lucy Boynton and Yasmin Paige.

Patrick Spence, Head of Drama, BBC Northern Ireland, comments: "The mix of hugely prestigious and burgeoning talent is as close to perfection as any cast could be."

Quote:

Ballet Shoes is a Granada production for BBC One and has been adapted by the acclaimed screenwriter Heidi Thomas (I Capture The Castle, Lilies, Cranford Chronicles).

Miss Thomas comments: "This is a captivating cast, worthy in every way of Streatfeild's gorgeous book."

She adds: "Emma Watson is a magical young actress. We are thrilled to have her on board."
