According to Lisa (and a couple of people on Twitter) it seems Emma will be filming something today (March 28) and tomorrow.
From Lisa:
Emma is filming in my hometown (Leiden in the Netherlands) today and tomorrow, but I have no idea what it's for
One of the person on Twitter talked about a series.
Thanks a lot to Lisa. If you have any more infos please share :)
From sizeforimpact:
"The Rapenburg in Leiden is partially closed off. The BBC is shooting parts of The Miniaturist here - little birds are telling us that Emma Watson might play a role. Has she been spotted already?" from UL/LU website
The series is based on the novel by Jessie Burton.
The plot from Wikipedia:
Petronella (Nella) Oortman, a poor 18-year-old girl from the Dutch countryside, arrives at the Golden Bend home in Amsterdam of the wealthy merchant Johannes Brandt, who married her a month earlier. She steps into a house of secrets held by Brandt's ascetic sister Marin, the servants Cornelia and Otto, and Brandt himself, who treats her more like a friend than a husband. Brandt gives her a wedding present of a dollhouse designed to look like their nine-storey home in miniature, and she engages the services of a local miniaturist to add realistic furnishings to it. The miniaturist, whom she never meets, begins sending her lifelike dolls and furnishings that are eerily accurate and even seem to predict the future. As webs of danger close in on the characters, Nella wonders if the miniaturist holds everyone’s fate in her hands.

Wow intriguing
They probably only shoot two days in that location.
Can't find any info on the cast for the series. Let's hope Emma plays a main role.
We want pictures from the shoots! Pleeease
If this is true, you should know who the director is or what the name of the film was, or who else was in the film? At least when someone is filming in Berlin, I know all these things.
Just to add. Such information is also in the local newspaper. I know whe G. Clooney's Monuments of Men was filmed in Northern Germany, there was an article in the paper and presented in local newss, especially someone as famous as Emma Watson.
So, is this a film or a TV serie? if it is true I'm glad she's filming again, it's been a while
Hi Eden, I was the anon who posted the message! Unfortunately I don't have any new information myself. I was at work when my sister called me hysterically she saw Emma at a coffee house haha. And she mentioned the road blocks and that apparently she would be filming today and tomorrow. Haven't seen anything for myself, but maybe I'll go there tonight or tomorrownight!
Thanks a lot Lisa :) Good luck stalking the set :p
Hi! I just went to watch the set and there seems to be someone that might just be Emma, but I couldn't see her clearly. The miniaturist will be a mini series and not a film, this was explained in a letter sent to my home in Leiden!
Just seen it, they are filming at the moment, a phew steps away from the university. Don't think i spotted Emma though! There is no proof she is in these series.
It would be such a disappointment if it turned out to not be true. Got my hopes up way too high at this little hint that she might be filming something new.
But I also don't get why the BBC isn't forthcoming at all with information about this project. They only announced, more than half a year ago, they were making it and who produces and writes it. Nothing about the director and the cast so far.
Emma Watson is listed as 'Dream cast' on IMDb for this series, hence why a lot of people think she is in the series. There has, however, no announcement been made by the BBC about the cast, so all this is pure speculation. Having said that, the filming that is currently being done in Leiden are just scenes with extras, so no major cast members are present.
What is the name of the film. The people that have been on the set, should know the name of the film that is being shot.
Filming in Leiden seems to be done and nothing of substance about Emma's participation has come up. For now I will take this whole thing for what it probably was, a rumour. It was fun while it lasted, I guess.
