The main actors who played the iconic characters in the “Harry Potter” film saga have repeatedly confessed their love for the props they used during filming. But, in the case of Emma Watson , the actress who played Hermione Granger, her choice reflected the personality of her character.
As the British told in an interview for Collider, she decided to keep three very special accessories that would remind her of her years as the brightest student at Hogwarts. “I asked permission to keep Hermione’s Time-Turner from the third movie, the cloak and the wand,” Watson explained. “Those are the three things I took with me,” said the also model.
But it wasn’t just Watson who took sentimental items with him, as his co-stars also wanted to keep some memorabilia from the set. Rupert Grint, the actor who played ‘Ron Weasley’, confessed to taking 4 Privet Drive without permission, just as his character would have done in the film. Meanwhile, Daniel Radcliffe, who gave life to the famous ‘Harry Potter’, found in his parents’ attic the rubber arm used in the filming of “The Chamber of Secrets” and a bust of himself at 11 years old that looks like a “mortuary mask”, both objects that reflect the personality of your character.
But the connection between the actors and their characters was not limited to the choice of objects, since for the filming of “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkabán”, the director Alfonso Cuarón commissioned them to write about what Hermione, Harry and ‘Ron from their points of view. Emma Watson delivered a 16+ page essay, just as her character would have done, while Daniel Radcliffe only wrote one page and Rupert Grint delivered nothing, in true Potter and Weasley style.
In short, the actors of ” Harry Potter ” demonstrated not only their acting talent on screen, but also their emotional connection with their characters and the objects that accompanied them during the most successful film saga of all time.
