New images of Emma Watson and the cast of 'The Bling Ring'


We've been privy to a ton of set photos from Sofia Coppola's ripped from the headlines exposé on celebrity culture, The Bling Ring. The best of those featured Harry Potter starlet, Emma Watson, rockin' a pair of super tight shorts which make her look like high class trash. Not that I'm complaining, especially since that's exactly the sort of character she's playing in the film.

We're getting a couple of new images of the young cast of The Bling Ring, which tells the true story of a bunch of celebrity obsessed teens who robbed the homes of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Orlando Bloom and others before finally getting caught due to their own stupidity. This is our first glimpse of Watson and the cast all together, which includes the likes of Taissa Farmiga, Israel Broussard, Katie Chang, Georgia Rock, and Claire Pfister. Leslie Mann figures into the equation somehow, and we've already seen Gavin Rossdale and Kirsten Dunst on set. Even Paris Hilton showed up, and I'm curious to see how they portray her part of the story. She was their first reported victim, and by pretty much every account the easiest home to break in to, which should surprise nobody. I'm sure Paris Hilton's has the top of the line security the ACME Corporation provides.

It seems like a release some time next year may be in the cards, but personally I'm hoping it starts making the festival rounds sooner than that. [I Heart Watson/EW]
