HARRY Potter fans have been left fearing Emma Watson is about to vanish from our screens as rumours swirl she has retired from acting.
The 30-year-old star has gone "dormant" according to her agent – believed to be movie-speak for stepping back from the limelight and giving up acting.
Reports in The Daily Mail claim the publicist added Emma, who shot to fame aged nine playing Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films, is "not taking on new commitments".
It's thought the actress may have decided to take a break to spend time with tycoon boyfriend Leo Robinton, who she's been dating for 18 months.
A source told the Mail: “Emma has gone underground, she is settling down with Leo. They’re laying low. Maybe she wants a family.”
Emma's representatives have been approached for comment.
Shocked fans have been quick to react to the rumours with one tweeting: "I actually cannot believe Emma Watson is retiring…it's devastating! However, I fully respect her choice and hope to see her do amazing things, whatever she chooses."
Another yelled: "EMMA WATSON IS RETIRING WHAT DONT TALK TO ME PLEASE."
A third fan added: "Proud of you thanks for everything you do, you're amazing."
While a fourth wrote: "Emma Watson has given us some of the most iconic roles. I’m wishing her all the best for the future. she deserves this."
After the Harry Potter series concluded in 2011 Emma went on to star in films including Noah, Beauty and the Beast and Little Woman.
Earlier this month, Emma sparked engagement rumours by sporting a band on her ring finger.
The ring was visible as she said goodbye to boyfriend Leo Robinton, 31.
Emma has been with Leo since 2019 and the pair were seen in London’s Primrose Hill in November last year.
