How it all began
Aged just 11, she joined the cast of Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone in 2001, as the loyal Hermione Granger. With Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint, she was catapulted to fame, thanks to the success of J. K. Rowling's books. Yet, her huge success didn't prevent her from attending university for five years in Rhode Island, where she graduated with a bachelor's degree in 2014. Her fellow students were starstruck when they saw her walking into the canteen for the first time!
She started acting on Broadway in High Society, in 1998, when she was 13. At 23 she was chosen for a role in a film which became her first success! She was discovered as Jessica Stanley, the high school friend of Bella Swan (played by Kristen Stewart), in The Twilight Saga. But she really became a huge star when she was cast to act in the worldwide famous comedy Pitch Perfect in 2012. She was sent to a camp with all the actors of the film, to practise singing and dancing. She revealed herself to be a marvellous acapella singer!
She was given a chance to act for the first time by her father in the movie Sandman when she was 11. She became really famous at the age of 20 when she was selected for a role in the CW series Gossip Girl from 2007 to 2012. She played the role of the blonde Serena, a teenage girl back in Manhattan after a mysterious absence. The actress was asked to live in the Big Apple for the film shoot, and she just loved it!
