Hogwarts – Have you ever been told that you look like a celebrity? For young Ella Norton, a 17 year old girl, this is quite common. The British is looks identical to actress Emma Watson, known for playing Hermione Granger in the film adaptations of ‘Harry Potter’. And unlike most people, she embraced the resemblance and now cosplays as the incredible actress.

According to her, lately people have begun to stop her on the street. “When I visited Oxford once, there were lots of children dressed up in Harry Potter uniform, and I was asked to take pictures with them all and sign autographs, some asking for Hermione’s autograph! It was very sweet”, she said in an interview with Boredpanda.

Ella Norton started cosplaying in the middle of 2020 and has focused on characters played by Emma in addition to the most popular one, Hermione.

I’ve only recently started cosplaying this year. So far I’ve only really cosplayed as Hermione, but I’m looking to also cosplay Belle from Beauty and The Beast, and Meg March from Little Women. I’ve never done any professional cosplay before, but I’m looking forward to learning more about cosplay and going to conventions when I can.”

The 17-year-old displays confidence and says she does not feel uncomfortable with messages from people and requests for autographs. “When I visited Oxford once, there were lots of children dressed up in Harry Potter uniform, and I was asked to take pictures with them all and sign autographs, some asking for Hermione’s autograph! It was very sweet.”
