You might have noticed Emma Watson has kept a low
profile since twenty eighteen's Little Women, not starring in a
single film or show since then, and as her acting
hiatus approaches the five year marks, she's explained her reasons
for stepping away from acting, telling the Financial Times, I
felt a bit cage. The one thing I found really
hard was that I had to go out and sell
something that I really didn't have much control over. To

stand in front of a film and have every journalists say,
how does this align with your viewpoint? Isn't easy when
it doesn't. It was very difficult to be face to
face and a spokesperson for things where I didn't get
involved in the process. Emma and she definitely will act
again because she loves it, but she's happy to wait
for the right thing to come along.
