Emma Watson is re-teaming with Harry Potter director David Yates for a new movie, according to a U.S. report.

The British actress, who played Hermione Granger in the long-running wizard franchise, has reportedly signed up to appear in new drama Your Voice in My Head.

Watson is said to be playing a suicidal girl in the film who is saved by a psychiatrist suffering from cancer and Deadline.com reports it will also be Yates' next project.
