Daniel Radcliffe has revealed that he and Emma Watson got into some massive fights on the set of the Harry Potter films — and they weren’t about who got the most mirror space in their dressing rooms.

Daniel explained that he and Emma frequently engaged in debates about serious topics including religion and politics, and their arguments would get so heated that they would completely stop talking to each other!

He tells Britain’s Radio Times, “Oh, God. We used to argue about everything. Religion. Politics. I remember one of the big arguments we had on the fourth film – we didn’t speak to each other for a couple of days – was about… She was arguing about the Latin language, that nobody knows what it sounds like, what a Latin accent should be. And I was like, ‘Yeah, but it’s still spoken a lot in the Catholic church.’

“Such a w**ky argument, looking back, and it got totally out of hand. She was furious; I was livid.”

And Daniel has some advice for anyone attempting to start an argument with Emma.

He adds, “I certainly would advise anyone, if you’re going to debate with her, know your s**t.”
We kind of love the idea of Emma and Daniel having these crazy arguments — they grew up together, so it’s almost like they’re brother and sister!

The pic, tweeted out by Paradiso Films, shows the kids of the cast—including the eminently crushworthy Logan Lerman and the always charming Emma Watson—sitting on a couch in their holiday finery, flanked by poinsettias and presents. So sweet! So seasonal! It’s like a belated Christmas present!

Needless to say, we’ve been watching “Perks” closely ever since it started filming (complete with a sneak peek at some behind-the-scenes stuff, and an exclusive trip to the movie’s set). Plus, with so many members of the MTV’s New Class on board—including Logan, who’s not just a member of said class, but also the president!—it’s one of our most-anticipated flicks of 2012. And if you feel similarly (and really, how could you not?), here’s your chance to show some love for “Perks” in the midst of some stiff competition: It’s one of the films in the race for supremacy in the MTV Movie Brawl 2012. Go vote! Support your president!

A year of studying abroad is probably a bit less daunting when your destination happens to be your home country.

That’s the situation for Emma Watson, the British actress who’s taking time away from Brown University to study at Oxford – in the same part of England where she grew up.

“It’s really nice … just to have that steady routine and back being home, being around people I love and doing what I love,” Watson, 21, said Sunday at the London premiere of My Week with Marilyn.

Although she’s got her nose in the books, Watson does have some movies in the works, she revealed.

“I’m studying and really excited about my next projects,” she said. “I can’t really talk about them right now, but I am going to try and fit in some film projects next year in between school.”

In My Week with Marilyn, which stars Michelle Williams as Marilyn Monroe, Watson plays Monroe’s wardrobe assistant, Lucy. After the Harry Potter films, she was thrilled to take a role that wasn’t quite as high profile.

“I loved it,” she said. “It was less pressure, but at the same time it was an interesting role, although it was a small role. I loved the script and loved the story, and I’m very interested in Marilyn, so I really wanted to do it.”

“I’m very proud of it,” she added, “and I’m really pleased with my part in it.”

Of Williams, she says, “I thought she was wonderful. Such a thing to take on, to play someone who is so iconic and so loved, and I think she just pulled it off so well. I was so impressed.”

Emma Watson gets close and personal talking to documentary filmmaker Morgan Matthews in this in-depth making of the final two Harry Potter films, called When Harry Left Hogwarts.

The 21-year-old actress shared, “Ever since I got this part, there’s been this thing that’s hung over us which has been, ‘Oh my god, that child star is doomed’…I feel like people are just waiting for me to screw up.”

When Harry Left Hogwarts also features new interviews with Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Thompson, Helena Bonham Carter, and more.

They’ve spent a decade together. Now down to the last two weeks of shooting on the final Harry Potter film, Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson are facing the end of the magical ride with heavy hearts. “I will be devastated [when it's over],” Radcliffe, 20, said Wednesday at the National Movie Awards in London. “There is nothing I watch without it triggering a series of memories. Everything [about the films] is so linked to my life. At the same time, it is exciting. It is the end.” “I feel like someone is dying,” said Watson, 20, adding that she never expected just how big the franchise would get (even inspiring a theme area at Universal Orlando). “This kind of love and recognition is just incredible. It is also really emotional for me. I am proud.”

Producer David Heyman said the crew is now shooting the final scenes of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in London. The movie will be split into two parts, coming out this November and next July.

“We will finish in two weeks’ time,” he said. “It is a very strange feeling. We have been 10 years together.”

Radcliffe and Watson also spoke of their futures after Harry and Hermione. “I am not planning to do an awful lot this summer,” Watson said. “I will take a bit of a break and enjoy that, really.”

Radcliffe is due to appear on Broadway in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. Beyond that, he hopes he can leave the Harry character behind, or risk being relegated to doing pantomime shows at Christmastime.

“I hope I can find some kind of employment after this,” he says. “Otherwise, I know panto, I suppose.”

Emma Watson might be the underrated girl-next-door type as Hermione in the Harry Potter films, but the British star says she’d shed that image – and her clothes – for the right filmmaker.

“Yes,” she says, when asked the nudity question by Britains’s Sunday Times. “For Bernardo Bertolucci. It… depends. I’m not getting my kit off any time soon, but it is part of my job.”

Emma has already come a long way from the 8-year-old who first won the part of Ron and Harry’s best girl pal, but she hasn’t let the fame go to her head, and says she still wants to go to school.

“I’m going to have a battle on my hands, because after Harry Potter has finished, I don’t know,” she says. “I definitely want to go to university.”

“I’m at a strange age, I’m not a woman yet, but I’m not a girl any more,” she adds. “[Film companies] say, ‘Oh, in a couple of years you’ll be perfect for this.’ I’ll be like, yeah, but I want to be studying English then, so it’s going to be quite tough to choose between the two.”
