10 Most Unusual Demands By Harry Potter Actors
4. Emma Watson Asked For More Books In Hermione's Bedroom
For the most part, the casting department for the Harry Potter movie series knocked their job out of the park. Almost every character was perfectly cast, but none more so than the golden trio, Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint.
The trio embodied their characters when they were first cast, and over the course of their childhoods got to know them better than anyone else. Arguably the greatest example of this was Emma Watson. Her considering leaving the franchise to pursue her education is surely the most Hermione thing she could have done, right?
One of the most infamous and important Hermione scenes in the entire franchise comes at the beginning of The Deathly Hallows, when she obliviates her parents to protect them. This was the first real look of the Grangers’ home in the franchise, and Emma Watson immediately saw that it wasn’t quite right.
Upon seeing her character’s bedroom, Watson observed that there should be more books than were originally there, given just how much Hermione loved to read. Of course, she was correct, and the set designers responded to her wish straight away.
