Emma Watson Harry Potter 4

Hit theaters on November 16, 2001. Hermione Granger herself, Emma Watson, celebrated the movie’s 20th anniversary with a touching Instagram post on Tuesday November 16.

The 31-year-old actress shared two photos: one with herself and co-starsDaniel Radcliffe (who played Harry) and Rupert Grint (who played Ron Weasley), when they were all youngsters, presumably on the set of the first film. The second photo had many more people with a number of castmates and crew, presumably from when the eighth and final film

Was filmed. She raved about her time onset and how she’s always known that getting to play Hermione was the role of a lifetime. “Harry Potter was my home, my family, my world and Hermione (still is) my favorite fictional character of all time. I think a journalist once said it was irritating how many times during an interview I mentioned how lucky I was and started counting… BUT I DAMN WELL KNEW!!! And still know, ” she wrote.

In the emotional post, Emma seemed blown away by how much she and the other stars have grown from kids into young adults, as many fans definitely are also. “I look at my fellow cast members now and I am just so proud of who everyone has become as people. I am proud we were kind to each other that we supported one another and that we held up something meaningful, ” she wrote. Emma also pointed to the fans for making the Wizarding World such an accepting place. “The magic of the world wouldn’t exist without you. Thank you for fighting to make it such an inclusive and loving place, ” she said.

Will be available on HBOMax on January 1, which will see the main trio, as well as other cast members reuniting. She also shared a trailer for the special on her Instagram Story!

Other than Emma, a few more of her co-stars reminisced on the film for its 20th anniversary.Bonnie Wright(who played Ginny Weasley) shared a photo of herself, making her brief debut appearance in the first movie. She thanked author J.K. Rowling, producerDavid Heyman, and directorChristopher Columbus for making the first movie an incredible experience. “Little me pictured on platform 9 3/4 at age nine would never have thought in her wildest dreams she’d find a family like I did on the sets of Harry Potter, ” she wrote.Evanna Lynch(who played Luna Lovegood) also said she was excited for the special but joked about the fact that her character didn’t make her first appearance until the fifth movieHarry Potter and the Goblet of Fire was a turning point in the franchise, picking up what Prisoner of Azkaban started by embracing a darker, far more serious tone that was more in line with J.K. Rowling's books. The depleting color of the Warner Bros. logo reminds viewers at the very beginning that things are changing in the Wizarding World, with the film's grim opening moments seeing Peter Pettigrew catering to Lord Voldemort' and killing an innocent man in the process.

It's all sunshine and rainbows for the next few minutes of Goblet of Fire, until the Death Eaters come to ruin all the Quidditch World Cup fun, another reminder that the Wizarding World will never be the same again. But aside from the darkness rising, you will recognize that Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire was perhaps the most fun movie in the franchise. It's a coming-of-age story, where teenagers are afforded a chance to be just teenagers, even if for a split second.

That brings me to the Yule Ball — the social event of the Triwizard Tournament where witches and wizards danced to a live rock band all night. It's also where Emma Watson's Hermione Granger has her big Cinderella moment — a scene that was necessary for her character, but one that Emma Watson secretly hated.

Hermione Granger attends the Yule Ball with Viktor Krum, the über-cool Bulgarian quidditch player from Durmstrang. Krum is also one of the four Triwizard Champions, which means that the two of them must dance before hundreds of students, including her friends Harry Potter and Ron Weasley.

It is established early on that Harry and Ron never consider asking Hermione to the ball, simply because they don't see her as anything more than a friend, or a sidekick, as Emma Watson said, during the anticipated Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts reunion special. And that's what made this pivotal scene so important. The actress recalled:

I think for the first time, Harry and Ron, particularly Ron, see Hermione as a young woman, not just this kind of sidekick that they each have. I knew it was a big deal, and I was miserable...I just knew it was the duckling becomes a swan moment, I mean there was just all of this pressure suddenly.

Emma

Watson also shared some behind-the-scenes details, explaining that the film's director, Mike Newell coached her to walk down the stairs. And he gave her a million different directions about what the scene needed to be. Emma tried her best to keep up, but it didn't exactly go very well. Watson remembered:

Mike Newell coached me to walk down the stairs in the dress. 'Your arms are swinging too much, you're walking too quickly, you need to walk slower.' He's giving me a million different directions about how to walk down the stairs, and of course, I fell down the stairs.

The Yule Ball was a pivotal moment for Ron and Hermione's relationship as well, as it is made clear that Ron finally begins to see her in a different light. He acts out of jealousy when he lashes out at Hermione for fraternizing with the enemy, which I believe, is code for dance with me. In a way, Goblet of Fire planted the seeds for their inevitable relationship, even though they're not officially together until four movies later.

Interestingly, Hermione's Yule Ball dress differed in the books and the adaptation. In the books, Hermione Granger wears a dress made of a floaty, periwinkle-blue material, which was changed to pink for the movies, believed to be a color better-suited for Emma Watson. The floor-length chiffon dress had a tiered skirt, with layers that turned a deeper shade of pink as they went on. It was a magical moment, and a wand wasn't required at all.
