Emma Watson as recently broken her silence on why she took break from acting. Speaking to The Financial Times on launch of Renais gin, Watson revealed she wasn’t “very happy” which is why, she stopped taking on new roles after finishing Little Women in 2018. “I think I felt bit caged,” said Harry Potter star.

Watson further stated, “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 film and have every journalist be able to say, ‘How does this align with your viewpoint?’” explained 33-year-old.

Beauty and Beast actress mentioned that she found it “Difficult” to be “Spokesperson” for things where she never got opportunity to be “Involved in process”.

When asked whether she would act again, Watson responded, “Yes. I am happy to sit and wait for next right thing. I love what I do. It’s finding way to do it where I don’t have to fracture myself into different faces and people.” “And I just don’t want to switch into robot mode anymore,” she concluded.
