Emma Watson Debuts Long Locks for the 'Bling Ring'

Emma Watson is back and she's got her long locks back from when she was Hermione Granger from the highly celebrated magical franchise, "Harry Potter". Before fans go on a frenzy thinking this is a post-Hogwarts "Potter" related film, it is not.

Emma has donned a set of hair extensions for her new film, "The Bling Ring."

Sofia Coppola is currently setting up the film remake of "The Bling Ring" and she's rounded-up the perfect set of cast including Emma Watson. So what is the film about and what's the hype about Watson landing one of the lead roles in the film?

"The Bling Ring" is a film adaptation based on true events that took place in the glitziest place in Hollywood - Beverly Hills. Sofia's directed film will revolve around a group of fame and fashion obsessed teenagers who break into the homes of a few well-known celebrities and take off with their fashionable and expensive items.

The big question is why Copolla would want to create a film out of fame-deranged driven teens when there are other great movies that could easily overpower "The Bling Ring?"

It's simple. Copolla wanted the film to reflect the current culture of today's celebrities and "reveal a sobering view of our modern culture." The same idea holds true for the film producers Youree Henley and Roman Coppola.

Given that Emma is part of the star-studded cast of teens ready to hit a few high-ranking homes, this wouldn't be her first post-Potter project. Watson has recently wrapped up production of "Perks of Being a Wallflower" alongside Logan Lerman and she still has a few film projects up her sleeve.

She'll probably be debuting the same long brown locks for her role as Beauty in Guillermo del Toro's take on "Beauty & the Beast," plus she's set to reunite with "Harry Potter" director, David Yates for another film, "Your Voice in My Head."

Watson is in the highest peak of her career and she's already made a mark by becoming Lancôme's newest face. She and co-stars in the film "Harry Potter", Daniel Radcliffe & Tom Felton, are continuing to rise up the ranks in Hollywood's film industry.
