Harry Potter star Emma Watson is all set to star in a period film titled 'Napoleon and Betsy', to be directed by Benjamin Ross.
The 18-year-old star will be playing Betsy Balcombe, a young, rash noblewoman trapped on the isolated British Isle of St. Helena who falls in love with Napoleon, who is in exile on the island.
She will be stepping in the shoes of Scarlett Johansson, who stepped out of the film as the part went on to become a lot younger, reports the Hollywood Reporter.
However, the film would still be produced by Johansson, along with Alexandra Milchan, Melanie Sloan and Gilles Arondeau.
Watson is popular for her role as Hermione Granger in Warner Bros.' 'Harry Potter' films, and is right now working on the sixth instalment in the series, namely 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'.
Pierce Brosnan is 'outrageously' kissable! Legendry actor Pierce Brosnan may not be attached to the 'James Bond' film series anymore, but he is still considered to be one of the most kissable men in Hollywood.
