Emma Stone Gets Asked About Replacing Emma Watson In La La Land During Oscar Press Interview

Emma Stone was asked quite the question during her press interview after winning the award for “Best Actress” at the Oscars last night, February 26. Emma took home the award for her work in the movie musical La La Land.

During her press interview, Emma was asked about her thoughts on Emma Watson dropping out of the movie. For those who don’t know, Emma Watson was originally in talks to play the lead of Mia before dropping out to play Belle in Beauty And The Beast. Stone would go on to replace Watson in the film.

Stone handled the question beautifully by stating that Watson was the coolest person and that she gets to play Belle, which is even cooler. Stone also spoke briefly about the blunder that took place during the end of the award show and her feelings on Moonlight winning “Best Picture”.

I hate when reporters ask questions in hopes of causing drama between actors. However, Emma’s answer was perfect!
