The Internet got all sorts of excited last week when rumors began to surface that Emma Watson was in talks for the role of Anastasia Steele in the film adaptation of FiftyShades of Grey. Not so fast, says Watson. I havent read the book, I havent a read a script, nothing, Watson tells EW. There are so many movies you become attached to when Ive literally never even received a phone call. It was the same way with TheGirl With the Dragon Tattoo I never even saw a script!

Watson is plenty busy: she has The Perks of Being a Wallflower in theaters this fall; she recently wrapped Sofia Coppolas The Bling Ringand is currently working on Darren AronofskysNoah. Sheadds that even some friends and family asked her aboutGreysince so many different items linking her to the film have popped up online. I told them just because there are 60 articles on the Internet doesnt mean its any less true than if there are three or four.

And a word to the wise for those who believe everything that they read about the actress: The thing is Im not going to go out there every time someone attaches me to a film to say no or release a statement.
