Wenn.com is reporting that Emma Watson plans to finish up her acting career with the last of the Harry Potter franchise. Her reason being that she simply doesn't have the desire to act in other roles than Hermione.

She is told America's Teen Vogue magazine, "There's not, like, a burning passion in me that I have to act and I don't care what I do. Until something comes along that I feel as strongly about as I did Hermione - like, I felt that it was life or death - I don't want to act again."

She will star her college career at England's Cambridge University this autumn and will search like any normal young adult for what they have a passion to do in life.

The full story can be read here.

Thanks to one of our senior members Coljoo for the tip.

Draco Malfoy, played by actor Tom Felton, has made the list of EW.com's "31 Hateful TV/Movie Children." The "Enfants Terrible" list is described as "a ghastly collection of maleficent on-screen minors" that includes such characters as Cartman, Cordelia from Buffy, and Biff from Back to the Future.

Well, yeah, this Slytherin scion has done everything in his power to put the whammy on Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) and his mini-Scooby crew since page 1. Plus, he's blond...and, in movies, blond kids are almost always bad news.

Congratulations Draco!
