Emma the pink Power Ranger?

Emma Watson, the actress who portrays Hermione in the HP films, is rumored to be playing the Pink Ranger in a 2007 TV series called "Power Rangers Drive Force." Remember, IMDb is reporting that this is just a rumor.

We'll keep you posted if we hear anything else.

Happy Birthday Emma!

On behalf of MuggleNet, I'd like to wish Emma Watson a very happy sweet sixteenth birthday. Emma is the actress who, in my opinion, wonderfully portrays Hermione in the HP films. Happy birthday, Emma!
