Does the end of Harry Potter feel like the end of Emma's childhood?
"Yeah. It does feel that way," Emma explained on the Today show. "It's been 12 years. We started when I was nine and the boys were 12. It's really been a significant part of our life not just in terms of the amount time, but in the period of a human being's life. So much change, so much happening. So yeah, it was incredibly emotional."
