Emma Watson Returns to Potter for $4Million?

Originally the rumor was that Emma Watson was not going to return to the Harry Potter Franchise. Which seemed to be a blatant grab for more money. Do I blame her? Heck no. So the latest scoop from one of our readers is that not only has she returned with more on screen time, but that she will get $4million bucks. Not knowing what she got paid for the last films, I cant say how big of a raise this is. Please note this is total rumor with no facts backing it up. The only thing we do know is that she will return.

The anticipated fifth film adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter novel series is being directed by award-winning British filmmaker David Yates and is coming to cinemas July 13th, 2007.

In "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix", Harry returns for his fifth year of study at Hogwarts and discovers that much of the wizarding community is in denial about the teenager's recent encounter with the evil Lord Voldemort, preferring to turn a blind eye to the news that Voldemort has returned. Fearing that Hogwarts' venerable Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, is lying about Voldemort's return in order to undermine his power and take his job, the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge, appoints a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher to keep watch over Dumbledore and the Hogwarts students.
But Professor Dolores Umbridge's Ministry-approved course of defensive magic leaves the young wizards woefully unprepared to defend themselves against the dark forces threatening them and the entire wizarding community, so at the prompting of his friends Hermione and Ron, Harry takes matters into his own hands. Meeting secretly with a small group of students who name themselves "Dumbledore's Army", Harry teaches them how to defend themselves against the Dark Arts, preparing the courageous young wizards for the extraordinary battle that lies ahead.
