Quote: Emma Watson to take three year break from acting after Harry Potter
The 19-year-old is due to start an English and Art course at university in September and wants to enjoy her time as a normal student, away from the pressures of fame.
The starlet, who recently featured in a Burberry advertising campaign in an attempt to shed her geeky on-screen persona, will step back from acting when she has completed work on the final Harry Potter film.
"I want to forget about hair and makeup," she said in an interview with The Times. "Sometimes on a publicity tour I can't remember what time it is, what country I'm in.
"Now it's coming to an end I'm trying to hold on to it. So I have a book, and everyone I've met has a page. I want to remember them and not just be left with the media version of what happened to me."
The teenager is keeping her choice of university secret in an effort to avoid press intrusion, although internet gossips have suggested that her destination could be any one of Harvard, Brown, Yale – all in the US – and Cambridge.
Watson also disclosed details about the filming of her long-awaited screen kiss with Rupert Grint, better known as Harry Potter's friend Ron Weasley.
"We did it two weeks ago," she said. "Four takes one way and two takes with the camera in the other direction. Six takes altogether."
In the interview Watson also picked out Helena Bonham Carter, who played Bellatrix in Harry Potter, as the biggest influence on her career. The pair struck up a friendship after Bonham Carter invited the teenager to her house to discuss their scenes.
"I admire her so much, she is so confident in herself, so happy," she said. "She probably has no idea how important those two or three hours with her were to me."
