Emma Watson is busy being Belle in Disney’s live-action version of Beauty And The Beast, but she’s already lining up new projects, with TheWrap reporting that following Alicia Vikander’s departure from James Ponsoldt’s The Circle, Emma Watson has stepped in.
Tom Hanks is also attached to the techno thriller based on Dave Eggers’ novel, with Watson as ‘a young woman who’s hired for a big job in an Internet monopoly called the Circle, which links users’ personal emails, social media, banking, and purchasing with their universal operating system, resulting in one online identity and a new age of civility and transparency. It’s there that she meets a mysterious older man, who will be played by two-time Oscar winner Hanks.’
“Emma Watson is one of my favorite actors, and her incredible talent, sensitivity, and deep intelligence will bring an electric energy to ‘The Circle,’” said Ponsoldt.
