For the golden trio, being a part of the Harry Potter cast was like winning the lottery. Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson became household names almost overnight. However, in the realm of acting, the experience was quite unusual. The trio of actors practically grew up in front of the camera, investing a decade in the eight films. However, even after ten years of working together, the actors were still able to wow one another with their performances.
Watson hasn’t been hesitant about admitting that her Harry Potter co-stars have consistently impressed her with their abilities. In a recent interview with JoBlo, the Noah actress remembered a day when Grint astounded her. Watson was intrigued by Grint’s response to Fred’s death when filming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2. She had to tell herself to keep acting because she was so astonished.
“Rupert’s brother dies in a scene, and the great thing about Rupert is that he’s a pretty self-contained human being,” Watson said. “You don’t see him get emotional too often.” “He transforms into this other thing the moment the camera rolls, and he has so much, and I’m like, ‘Where did that come from?’ Anyway, he cries in one scene, and I remember having to remind myself to keep acting because all I wanted to say was, ‘You’re amazing!’ That was incredible!’ I’m not sure where he got it from.”
Grint wasn’t the only one who managed to win Watson over. Radcliffe’s boldness in approaching the work was another thing she admired. Radcliffe, according to the Beauty and the Beast star, went all out in his action scenes.
“With Dan, I’ve had similar times where I’ve just been stunned,” Watson said. “I’m referring to a lot of the stunt stuff Dan had to do in the previous film. He’s brave, and he’ll just dive himself into it, building all of these things, and I’m just astounded that he gives it his all, and that’s definitely admirable.”
