Actress Emma Watson appears on the March 2017 cover of ELLE UK. The ‘Beauty and the Beast’ star wears a fitted jacket and mussed hairstyle in the image. Photographed by Kerry Hallihan, Emma looks simply chic in the accompanying spread. In one image, the 26-year-old gets her closeup in a striped top. For another, Emma shows off her slim physique in a sleeveless jacket.

The noted feminist talks about whether she is ready to write a book. “I need to see and do a bit more first… I’m no expert, and when people push me into a corner of ‘here’s Emma Watson to lecture you on feminism’, it’s uncomfortable because I am aware I have a long way to go. I am not sure I deserve all the respect I get yet, but I’m working on it.”

In her interview, Emma talks about taking on the role of Belle in ‘Beauty and the Beast’. “For me, Beauty was the perfect, most joyful thing to do… There was something connected about Hermione and Belle, and it was good to be reminded that I am an actress; this is what I do. The film is pure escapism.”
