British actress Emma Watson has graduated from Hogwarts to some decidedly more adult roles.
According to The Sun newspaper the “Harry Potter” actress goes topless in the drama “Regression”.
The 24-year-old starlet’s latest role, however, is anything but sexy. The drama, which co-stars Meryl Streep and Ethan Hawke is about Angela Gray, the daughter of a man who sexually abuses her.
“Regression” isn’t scheduled to hit theaters until August 2015, but reports say that the movie is being previewed in U.S. theaters, and viewers are expressing concerns over Watson’s allegedly revealing scene.
One moviegoer reportedly described the scene as “useless and ineffective” adding:
“You can see her breasts but they are partially obscured. I think she may have been wearing pasties to cover her nipples.”
Oo-er…
Watson has recently made some deliberate career choices to move away from her iconic Harry Potter character, the brainy teen wizard Hermione, including starring in the Biblical epic “Noah” and her upcoming political drama “Colonia Dignidad.”
Meanwhile, Watson has been named “Feminist Celebrity of 2014″ by an online poll conducted by Cosmopolitan in partnership with Ms. Foundation For Women.
Foundation president and CEO, Teresa Younger, said in a statement: “We celebrate all feminists every day, but today we’re giving a hat tip to celebrities who are helping to promote women’s equality.”
The actress notably made headlines this year when she delivered a widely acclaimed speech about feminism at a United Nations meeting in September.
Sounds like young Emma is getting rather edgy these days… I like it!
