Emma Watson spent years playing a goody-two-shoes in Harry Potter, but she’s certainly letting her hair down in Sofia Coppola’s The Bling Ring. The film is set to premiere next month at Cannes, but before then a trailer has been released, giving us a look at Watson as a high-end thief.

The drama is based on the true story of six teenagers, known as The Bling Ring, who broke into the homes of Hollywood celebrities such as Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and The Hills’ Audrina Patridge, making off with over $3 million in stolen goods from October 2008 to August 2009.
