Emma Watson has revealed that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 was a tough shoot - as well as being very 'unglamorous'.
The British actress. who leaves the character of Hermione behind this summer admitted that the shoot was so demanding that she was reduced to tears and left exhausted.
In an interview with the TV Times the actress said: "There were days when I was in tears. I was begging David [Yates, director] but he just said, 'It looks so much better that you guys seem more vulnerable'. And he's right, it does look great on screen.
"We're kind of like bedraggled, unlikely heroes. It works, but there were times when I just wanted to kill him!"
"People who are close to me know, they so know, that there were days when it was decidedly unglamorous. And I was so tired, I would fall asleep anywhere.
"They'll never be released, but the on-set photographer has pictures of me falling asleep everywhere - on chairs, on the floor, in the middle of the set, all curled up."
And while the shoot was tough for Watson the actress admitted that it was a great way to play the character.
"David wanted a really honest performance. It was lovely to play - I feel like earlier on I played a parody of myself. She was kind of this big personality and she's developed into someone much more human."
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 bring the Potter franchise to a close later this year - ten years after the first movie was made.
But Watson has already completed work on new project My Week With Marilyn.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 is released 15th July.
