Birthday: April 15, 1990

Hometown: Paris, France

Where You’ve Seen Her: Since 2001, she’s been Hermione Granger in the almost-over (cue rejoicing or bawling here) Harry Potter series. Watson is currently a student at Brown University, but don’t think you won’t see more of her after the legacy is over—later this year, you can catch her in My Week With Marilyn, an upcoming British film about (you guessed it) Marilyn Monroe. Check her out in Part One of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, out on DVD today. Expecto Boner!

Random Fact: Before attending the fictional Hogwarts, Watson attended the real-life Dragon School, a prep school in Oxford.
