The young star told Elle: "I just knew from the moment I read Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone that I was meant to play that role.
"I put one of the Potter films on the other night. And it was amazing to me that I had done all of that. I have to remind myself every now and then."
Watson can currently be seen in The Perks of Being a Wallflower - another novel turned into a film feature.
She previously said that she hopes her role in The Perks of Being a Wallflower will show a different side of her as an actress.
"I hope what [Harry Potter fans] can see is that I am able to transform, that there are other sides of me that perhaps they haven't seen yet, and that they might allow me a little bit of room," she explaine! d.
The Perks of Being a Wallflower is now playing in US and UK cinemas.
