Speaking about the movie This is the End, Emma Watson admits that when she first read the script she thought it was crazy. Emma, like many other stars who appear in the film, plays herself in this apocalypse-themed comedy.

She said: ”I thought it sounded crazy. I remember trying to get my head around it on the phone to my agent who was like, ‘So, it’s Seth Rogen and Jonah Hill and James Franco and Danny McBride and all these other comedians. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg are making it, and all the actors are playing themselves, and it’s going to be the end of the world… and they want you in the movie.’ I’m like, ‘What? Why? How?’ I had so many questions. I just remember reading it and thinking it’s hilarious, I thought it was the most crazy, absurd premise for a story I’d ever heard. I had to do it. I was taken aback. Why did they think of me? But then I read the script, and it was so funny. And I loved that they made the only two women in the story these really strong, bad ass, funny characters. We come off so well.”

This is the End arrives in theaters on Wednesday, June 12.
