Emma Watson announced today on Twitter that the official trailer for her new film, The Perks of Being A Wallflower that she shot in the US last fall, will be launched at the MTV Movie Awards next month. Emma will present the trailer at the pre-show with her co-stars Logan Lerman and Ezra Miller. Here's what she had to say:#PerksOfBeingAWallflower Trailer is going to show at the @MTVMovieAwards pre-show! @LoganLerman and Ezra and I will be there to present. :)
@EmWatson: Sorry I couldn't mention anything sooner! Thank you to everyone who has voted for HP ! You guys and girls are so awesome : ) xx
Harry Potter is, as she mentioned, up for 6 awards, as reported previously. Make sure to vote lots, if you haven't already.

We've also heard in the past that Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, is a massive Harry Potter fan, and there were even rumours a few years back that she visited the set of Deathly Hallows Part 2.
Universal Studios Japan on Thursday will unveil plans to build the first international version of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, the blockbuster attraction that has drawn millions of fans to Universal’s Orlando resort and is coming to Los Angeles.
The Osaka destination -- expected to begin construction in the next few weeks with a planned opening in late 2014 and an expected cost of about $500 million -- brings Hogwarts Castle and rides including Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey to the boy wizard’s biggest market outside of the United States.
The article also went on to quote JK Rowling, making us think this sounds pretty official! "I was delighted to experience and enjoy the attention to detail, creativity and superb craft that went into the first Wizarding World in Orlando,” she said. “I am equally delighted that the same level of expertise and enjoyment will translate to the new park in Japan.”
Harry Potter has grossed over $900 million in Japan, more even than in Britain - what do you think of adding a Japanese park? Or of building all these new parks in general?
Here's a trailer from the HBO YouTube channel, although it releases no new movie clips from Deathly Hallows but is edited differently:
