English actress Emma Watson, who turned 18-year-old on Tuesday, April 15, celebrated adulthood at Automat restaurant in Mayfair, London, England, on Friday, April 18, with a sit down dinner for 70 close friends and family that did not include any leading celebrity.
She left at 3:45 am with a flash of her panties, as her silk LBD rode up while she sat in her car.
Emma, who plays Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter film series, now exercises control over the $20 million that she has amassed acting in the series.
Before taking over control of her assets from her parents, Chris and Jacqueline, she took a crash course in money management from Coutts bank.
Emma Watson is attached to star in the period romance “Napoleon and Betsy,” replacing Scarlett Johansson who was deemed too old for the role.
Watson, 18, will play Betsy Balcombe, a young, impetuous noblewoman trapped on the isolated British island of St. Helena who falls in love with Napoleon, who has been exiled there.
Johansson, 23, is still serving as a producer. The indie project comes from writer-director Benjamin Ross.
Emma is currently working on the sixth film in the Harry Potter series, for which she is being paid $5 million.
With filming of the last chapter, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” scheduled to commence in early 2009, Watson hopes to shoot “Napoleon and Betsy” in the fall.
The final film, Deathly Hollows, will follow. It is planned to be made in two parts, and will fetch Emma a paycheck of $5 million.
