Emma Watson is still busy promoting her highly anticipated “Beauty and the Beast” flick, but she’s already moving on to her next project. The Harry Potter actress wrapped up filming for the Disney flick last year and immediately hopped to the set of “The Circle” with the great Tom Hanks.

The British actress, model, and activist supported co-star Tom Hanks, who was honored for his work as an actor at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

The 26-year-old actress jumped on the velvet bandwagon by slipping into a draped velvet dress from Kitx’s Spring 2017 collection. Emma also went full-on with the trend by donning a slim black choker.

We’re glad Emma honored the 60-year-old actor despite her hectic schedule.  The two were also spotted for lunch while shooting for “The Circle.”

The actress interviewed Tom Hanks for Esquire UK earlier this year. The interview, which predictably discussed politics, feminism, and family, was published in March.
