“I wasn’t very happy, if I’m being honest, ” Watson, 33, told Financial Times in an interview. “I think I felt a bit caged. The thing I found really hard was that I had to go out and sell something that I really didn’t have very much control over. To stand in front of a film and have every journalist be able to say, ‘How does this align with your viewpoint?’ It was very difficult to have to be the face and the spokesperson for things where I didn’t get to be involved in the process.”

Watson said that she was held accountable “in a way that I began to find really frustrating, because I didn’t have a voice, I didn’t have a say.”

“And I started to realize that I only wanted to stand in front of things where if someone was going to give me flak about it, I could say, in a way that didn’t make me hate myself, ‘Yes, I screwed up, it was my decision, I should have done better, ’” she said.

Watson found a new creative avenue with writing and directing a campaign for Prada. She called it a “very” big moment for her.

“People always told me I should direct and produce, even when I was on ‘Potter, ’” she said. “I was worried it was just technical, not creative, and I couldn’t bring what I think is probably my skill set.”

It was thanks to her brother, Alex Watson, and friends asking her to do a photo shoot or make a video that made her realize she could try her hand at filmmaking.

“I actually know quite a lot about that. Being a director seemed unattainable. I don’t think I had any confidence in that, ” she said. “I know it seems weird. I mean, I grew up on a film set.”

I like the rituals around it and the history and the connection with the people here, ” she said of the small French town Chablis where her family has long visited. “For me it’s about family and community and it makes me feel grounded that there’s somewhere I can come back to, year after year after year.”
