Harry Potter star Emma Watson has reportedly asked her boyfriend Johnny Simmons to move to Britain.

The 21-year-old actress, who is about to take up a place at Oxford University, wants Simmons to be with her when she resumes her studies next month, Daily Mail reported.

“Emma is looking forward to her English degree at Worcester College. She is excited to be back but she misses Johnny. She would love him to come here,” a friend of Watson’s said.

Watson met actor Simmons, 24, on the set of her new film, The Perks Of Being A Wallflower, in Pittsburgh.

The two have however never spoken about their relationship in public but have been pictured getting intimate on various occasions.

What are the Harry Potter kids gonna do after this last movie?

The eighth (and last) Harry Potter flick wrapped production earlier this month, and the young stars all have post-Hogwarts plans. They are actors, after all.

At least one has been making good money standing still and looking hot for Burberry, and you should be able to catch them all on the big screen, bearing props that are definitely not wands:

For example, the lead actor in all eight of the Harry Potter movies, Daniel Radcliffe, is attached to do a war picture that does not involve Death Eaters but rather, simply, death. He’s signed on to play the lead, Paul Baumer, in a remake of the World War I picture All’s Quiet on the Western Front. (“Daniel brings a vulnerability and innocence to Paul,” producer Ian Stokell told Variety last month.)

The last time the movie was made, it was in 1930, and it won Best Picture, and even portkeys hadn’t been invented yet, and I’ll try to stop now.

Onward to Emma Watson aka Hermione Granger.

The final Potter film recently wrapped filming, and she has no movie projects officially announced. Then again, she doesn’t need any, given that she, along with fellow actor Rupert Grint reportedly earned $30 million—apiece—for their appearances in the two-part Potter finale, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. (Radcliffe got $40 million, plus $1 million for his image on merchandise, according to Vanity Fair.)

Right now, Watson has told interviewers, she wants to concentrate on the student life, hence no new flicks, at least, not right now.

That isn’t to say she hasn’t eyeballed some scripts.

“The scripts all have happy endings, they’re really badly written and they are sending them to an English literature student,” she complained to London’s Daily Mail.

Now let’s talk Rupert Grint. You know, Ron Weasley.

While Radcliffe will be slogging through the Battle of Verdun, Grint will be leaping in the snow in an upcoming comedy currently in pre-production. Dubbed Eddie the Eagle, the comedy tells the true story of England’s first contender for an Olympic ski jumping title. It’s in pre-production.

That may not sound like much, relatively, but Grint may end up with the biggest career out of the three. Why? Get this: Martin Scorsese really, really likes him.

“I thought he was great in the Harry Potter movies—in a lot of scenes, the boy stole the show,” the director told the London Guardian. “I would be very interested in working with him. I would have no issues in casting him as a gangster. He is a very talented young man.”

Scorsese even—get this—compared Grint to a serious A-lister.

“When [Leo DiCaprio] was in Romeo and Juliet, nobody saw him becoming a badass in movies like The Departed. But he has become one of the greatest actors of all time. The very same could be true for Rupert.”

The ladies seem to love some Tom Felton, so we’ll throw him in here, too. Once he hangs up his Death-Eater get-up, the onetime Draco Malfoy will debut a horror flick already in the can.

It’s called The Apparition, something about a college experiment gone horribly wrong, but it’s Tom Felton, so I don’t need to really tell you too much more, now, do I?

normal_67238_elleuk005_123_432loAt the tender age of 19 most teenagers are only just beginning to think about their future careers.

But Emma Watson is celebrating being named the highest paid actress of the past decade.

Despite being just nine years old at the Millennium her extra-curricular activities playing Hermione in the Harry Potter films have made more money than any other woman in Hollywood.

The wizard franchise and her role in the animation The Tale Of Despereaux have taken $5.4billion (£3.32billion) worldwide, putting her films’ box-office takings ahead of Hollywood heavyweights such as Julia Roberts, Halle Berry and Cameron Diaz.

She also boasts the highest average box office receipts per movie, with each of her films making an average of £554,880,000.

The star topped the poll by the Guinness Book Of World Records.

The accolade caps a remarkable rise to fame for the former pupil of Stagecoach Theatre Arts in Oxford.

Since her first outing as Hermione as a 10-year-old in 2001, she has amassed a £10million fortune and was recently placed sixth on Forbes’ list of Hollywood’s Most Valuable Young Stars.

Watson is currently the face of Burberry Prorsum and has announced that she is creating a fashion range for ethical brand People Tree next year.

She has also emulated the academic achievements of her character Hermione, earning eight A*s and two As at GCSE, and three As at A-level. She now divides her time between fashion and studying art and literature at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.
