This doe-eyed beauty was a star student in her school, brilliant at academics (much like her character in the film) and was interested in sports activities and theater productions. Having appeared in a couple of school dramas, her teachers suggested that she try-out for the first installment of the best-selling series. A couple of takes and a few lines later, her life turned completely as she became one of the most recognized and the most bankable Hollywood stars with a worth of over $10 million. Apart from her involvement in the ‘Harry Potter’ franchise, she has appeared in ‘The Tale of Despereaux’ and also starred in the film adaptation of ‘The Perks of Being a Wallflower’ and ‘Noah’.
