Emma Watson spoke about the importance of knowledge for Belle, her character in Beauty and The Beast

In a separate interview with Collider, the Harry Potter actress commented on how she modernized Belle and made the character her own. She shared, “I love that, in our version, Belle is not only awed and doesn’t fit in, you see her reading and she’s actually an activist within her own community. She’s teaching other young girls, who are part of the village, to read. I love moments like that, where you can see her expanding beyond just her own little world and trying to grow. That was amazing to get to do.”

In the same interview, she also addressed how Belle was a character for whom books and education played a pivotal role. She added, “I think that Belle is this ultimate symbol of the fact that books can be rebellious, incredibly empowering, and liberating. You can travel to places in the world that you would never be able to, under other circumstances. I was just really proud to play a character that has a certain earnestness about her.”

Emma Watson has taken a brief hiatus from work after the release of her last movie Little Women.
