Emma Watson will be on the cover of the May 2013 issue of Briitsh GQ, wearing a cut-out dress reminiscent of Julia Roberts's character in Pretty Women.

The 22-year-old Harry Potter actress is dressed in character for her upcoming role in the film The Bling Ring, showing off small tattoos along her hip and another tattoo on her wrist. The film, also starring Leslie Mann of This is 40, is based on the true story of fame obsessed teenagers who tracked celebrities and robbed their homes, according to IMBD.

In the film, Watson plays Nicki, a character she said she hated when she read the script. She told British GQ, "The character is everything that I felt strongly against - she's superficial, materialistic, vain, amoral. She's all of these things and I realised that I hated her. How do you play someone you hate?"

She continued, "But I found it really interesting and it gave me a whole new insight into what my job, or my role as an actress, could be."

According to The Daily Mail, the film is based on The Hollywood Hills Burglar Bunch who were arrested in 2009 for robbing the homes of celebrities including Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan.

The film is set to be released on June 14, 2013.
