The Bling Ring
Sneak Peek at "The Bling Ring"
Who would have guessed that when all the Harry Potter hype dust settled the last person remaining would be its pixie like heroine Hermoine? Well, my guess is most people guessed that. While Daniel Radcliffe has made a solid attempt at moving past his Potter origins, he will always be the boy wizard so matter what he does.
What Emily Watson has going for her in her favour is that she is a chick, and a hot one at that.
Since leaving Potter, Watson has selected an interesting array of image deconstruction roles that have really proven her as something of a genuine Hollywood player in the next few years. From comedy in the form of This Is The End, to indie fare like The Perks of Being A Wallflower - she's kept her roles varied and interesting. However, her latest, The Bling Ring could be her best - and sexiest - post Potter movie yet!
From the mind of Sofia Coppola, a respected a name in Hollywood as they come, The Bling Ring is born. A stunning satire on the fame obsessed culture of LA, it follows a group of teens as they take on a thrilling and often disturbing crime spree throughout the Hollywood hills.
Even stranger is that the movie is based on true events. No lies, there was really a group who were fixated on LA's glam lifestyles and tracked their celebrity targets online and eventually stole over $3M in luxury goods from their homes.
Their victims included Paris Hilton, Orlando Bloom, and Rachel Bilson, and the gang became known in the media as “The Bling Ring.” That said, people who are millionaires for releasing purposely leaked sex tapes can hardly be considered "victims" though can they?
Anyhew, the trailer is below as well as a look back at the very early stages of Emily Watson's career. How far she's come!
