Emma Watson, in an interview with The Telegraph, has indicated that she will take time off from making movies to concentrate on her studies.

“I would like to go to university and complete a degree and so that will mean a break from acting. I’ve always tried to balance my education with my acting career, but I just don’t think it will be possible to juggle it with a degree course. I have a need now to study.”

She has expressed interested also in studying in the US if she is accepted there.

“There are excellent universities over there and I’m applying at the moment,” she said. “If I stay in this country I will read English Literature, and if I go to America I would do a Liberal Arts programme.”

The British actress is currently in her gap year and enjoying some time off. She is however expected to film the last Potter book, which will be divided into 2 movies. Filming will be early next year.
