Katie Couric: Emma Watson, Good morning. Hey! Emma nice to see you.

Emma Watson: Hello~

Katie Couric: You know, my daughter told me the other day when they started reading the Harry Potter books at her school, all the girls thought your name was Hermi One.

Emma Watson: I know, I know...I've heard so many different interpretations like oh...em... Hermio Ne, Hermi One, Her Mione...

Katie Couric: But now I guess...now I guess because of the movie everyone knows how to say your name and Hermione, like Emma Watson is growing up. ("Yes.") And I think this movie reflects that, don't you? Because she's dealing with all sorts of teenage issues that are very very relatable.

Emma Watson: Yeah, and she definitely is, you know that's em...this is the first film book with the introduction of romance, close teenage angst and, you've, the boys and well, the girls got to find dates for the Yule Ball and yeah..."

Katie Couric: And she is sort of has...has a thing for Harry and Ron, I mean there is some sexual chemistry there and yet, they are kind of completely...out of it.

Emma Watson: No, they are really not that, I think. I really think it's the Ronald , I really think he's jealous, I really think when he goes to the ball with Victor Krum, he's...he's jealous.

Katie Couric: I...I think so, too. Meanwhile that, you know,we talk...I talked to Danniel about this. This movie is a little...a little darker, a little scarier than the previous ones. ("Yeah") And do you worry about that in terms of alienating fans or scaring young fans, I guess.

Emma Watson: Uhm, to be honest, it's always been about staying faithful with the book, and...the book is much darker, you know, someone died, two, two people died , and there is, Voldemort's back, it's...it's gotta be darker and...and it's always been about thinking this is a book and we are older now. It's going to be more mature ,and more mature issues, and I think it's great that they actually embraced that, they haven't caught the punchies and I think they made a really great film and...yes, it is scary for younger people but em...I think we've lost younger audience as we have the gains of the adults, yeh,yeh.

Katie Couric: And people who are little more mature. Meanwhile, I ,I think in a Yule Ball scene, Hermione walks down the stairs and it's such a great scene because suddenly you can see that she's really blossomed into a young lady and her...her character's forever changed in a way she's perceived, I think. It's forever changed, right?

Emma Watson: Yeah, yeah. And this scene is meant to be out of a kind of real transformation. You must see her...("Kind of a Cinderella moment I have to say, Emma)Yeah,Yaeh,Yeah, exactly that. It's kind of a Julie Roberts's "Pretty Woman" ask moment where she... when you...you are like...wow...God, she's such a pretty! She's meant to look like you've never seen her before, quite different.

Katie Couric: And, and I was going to ask you because because I didn't have time to talk to...to Danniel about this, but you worked with three different directors for these four movies, Chris Columbus did the first two,(Yeah.) the second one was directed by?

Emma Watson: Ah.. Ah..Fo...Oh, no, Chris did the first two, and then Alfanso did the third and then...

Katie Couric: Right, and now Mike Newell ,(Mike Newell too) a Four Weddings and a Funeral film, did this one. (Yeah.)Is it hard for you to...to have different visions for every director, cause I would think that would be either very exciting and challenging or like "what is this guy gonna do with it?

Emma Watson: Well, Let's be honest, you know, I actually, I love it, I have to say, because...

Katie Couric: I'm sure you're gonna say yeah I thought, kiddy, I mean this guy want to do with it, but..

Emma Watson: No, well. No. I mean it's just er...from my point of view, you know, being in the same kind of films for four years now, it's em...it brings something new to everytime and I've learned something new and it keeps it interesting for me.

Katie Couric: You've been doing this for the past five years, are you sick at it at all? And I mean do you feel like, Gee, I want to try something else or gosh, I'd like to be a normal teenage girl for a little while?

Emma Watson: Well in between er, in between the films I was to have a break. Er...I go back school and I do the kind of a normal school girl, there for a...for a while which is nice and uhm, I stop on the fifth of Feburary and then after that, em, we will see, I definitly would want to be the last thing I do, I'm looking around for a new start. Yeah.

Katie Couric: Emma Watson, it's always a pleasure to see you. ("Thank you~") Thanks so much for coming by and enjoying our cool Harry Potter set, right? Emma?("Yeh~ It's really good.") And Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire hits theaters this Friday.
