Deadline reports that Emma Watson (best known for her role as Hermione Granger in the
Harry Potter franchise) is now in talks to join the cast of
Noah; Darren Aronofsky's biblical epic. The actress is set to play Ila, a character the site describes as being a young woman who develops a close relationship with Noah's (Russell Crowe) son (Douglas Booth). Logan Lerman is playing his other son, Ham, while Jennifer Connelly is just one of the actresses being lined up to play his wife. An actor has still not been found for "Noah's nemesis."
