[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Emma Watson as in Hermione? She has no looks to speak of, not a nepo baby afaik, and started too young to have traded favors. There must be some other factor[/quote]

The factor surely is people's pure nostalgia for her role as Hermione. That's about all she's done that's made a ripple. I honestly don't know what she does for a living, because if she's acting you don't hear about it. I'm not dissing her as a person but she just seems not to [i]work[/i], or if she's working, it's not on anyone's radar. (Now a Watson stan will come along to cite her many post-Potter roles, I guess?, but, come on, how is she relevant to [i]acting[/i] now?) Polar opposite: Daniel Radcliffe, who seems to work constantly and moves between theater, TV and films, in roles extremely different from each other. I would call her a minor celebrity; I would call him a working actor. [/quote]
DP. This is a good distinction: working actor vs celebrity/socialite. I don't see Emma Watson as an actress either, personally; she seems like a navel-gazing rich girl who seems to be trying to upp her profile with performative virtue-signalling, but never actually does anything. And I agree, she's never done a good performance. In my opinion anyway.

It's a shame the Luna Lovegood actress Evanna Lynch never made it big after Harry Potter, because that girl can actually act well.[/quote]
